Inner Child

Little girl Don't you cry But if you must You can weep in my arms I'll defend your peace I'll keep you from harm I'll be your roots So you can grow strong Little girl You're playing hide and seek With your emotions you bury six feet deep Oh child, don't you bottle them up If you don't release them, you're gonna pop Pressure doesn't always make diamonds Sometimes it makes you break But with me you don't need to worry I am your mother, I'll keep you safe Inner child I'll keep you safe I am your mother I'll keep you safe Inner child I'll keep you safe I am your mother I'll keep you safe Little girl Oh, they lie Don't listen They feed on self doubt Try to keep you quiet So no one finds out That there are bodies Hidden under their ground Little girl They put a spell on you They repeat words and make sure that they stick like glue Now their inside your mind with their hurtful lines Your value was never for them to define Pressure doesn't always make diamonds Sometimes it makes you break But with me you don't need to worry I am your mother, I'll keep you safe Inner child I'll keep you safe I am your mother I'll keep you safe Inner child I'll keep you safe I am your mother I'll keep you safe Oh, when you fall, you get up again When you have no one, you still have yourself Validate how you feel, hold your own hand Be kind to yourself, be your best friend If something feels wrong, listen to your gut Take a break, take a deep breath when it gets too much Don't forget external validation isn't self love Remember when you're not at your best, you're enough You are enough You are enough You are enough You are enough Pressure doesn't always make diamonds Sometimes it makes you break But with me you don't need to worry I am your mother, I'll keep you safe Inner child I keep you safe I am your mother I keep you safe Inner child I keep you safe
