Lyrics
Verse 1:
She wore her pride like a dress, I swear she wore it well
He fell out of Eden once and he'd gladly do it again
Such a stone-cold hearted man with a bitter a woman on his hand
Those daddy issues, they never end well
Chorus:
Mothers, hold your daughters and your sons
Fathers, show your children how to love
You gotta take their hands to lift them up again
Love your children
Love your children
Verse 2:
Mothers, don't you know the pain you've caused your sons?
Daddies, don't you know some hurts can't be undone?
So be careful what you sow, they gonna reap it soon
Just be careful or they'll end up just like you
Chorus:
Mothers, hold your daughters and your sons
Fathers, show your children how to love
You gotta take their hands to lift them up again
Love your children
Love your children
Bridge:
This is for the kids suffering alone
This is for the ones in a house that ain't no home
This is for their moms, this is for their dads
Maybe it's the best that they can do with what they have
Hurt people hurt people
And they can be the, be the worst kind of worst people
But they just doing what's been done
Ain't condemning anyone
Truth is God so loved the world that He gave His only Son
Chorus:
Mothers, hold your daughters and your sons
Fathers, show your children how to love
You gotta take their hands to lift them up again
Love your children
Love your children
