Lyrics
Mama, please come put your arms around me
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
I don't understand, how can this be
Why'd you have to take your aggravations out on me
And why'd you leave me here, so far away from home
My life can't go on, but I gotta be strong
Keep on holdin' on
Mama, please come put your arms around me
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
Mama, can't you hear me calling you
If you don't hear my cry, what am I suppose to do?
Should I embrace the one that snatched my soul?
Were we really enemies? I'll never know which way I should go
Mama, please come put your arms around me (Yeah)
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold (Yeah, yeah)
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
Mama, please come put your arms around me
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
Left or right, up or down, these are choices
The end of this life represents the choices we make
The decision to live your life out of tune with your true nature limits your eternal existence
This is sad
Beyond this world, beyond this dimension lies incredible knowledge
If we close our minds with fear and ignorance, we can't perceive these philosophies
The universe is based on energy and continuous flow
This energy can be tapped and used
We should learn to use our power of deduction
We should know what to eat from our physiological makeup
We should know their wanted destruction of great minds is monstrous because of the emotion we possess as humans
All these choices are a great lateral, a giant matrix
A series of crossroads we must travel
Choose wisely
Mama, please come put your arms around me
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
Mama, please come put your arms around me
'Cause where I'm standing life's so cold
Come and take me on this peaceful journey
It won't be long before I'm gone
