Rayana Ragan - Why Mama Why Lyrics

I heard from the priest at the end of the road
That we only ever get what we deserve
So I ran home to Mama and I said to her
Why Mama why
Even though I try
To fight
It feels like I am
Dying
So now I know
It's time to go
Before I lose my soul
Why Mama Why is this burden so heavy
Why Mama Why should I forgive 'fore I'm ready
Why Mama Why should my faith be steady
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why
You keep your grip firmly pressed on my throat
Got me feeling like there's nowhere I can go
So I ran home to Mama but she wasn't home
Why Mama why
Even though I try
To fight
It feels like I am
Losing
The fearlessness
I used to know
Before I lost my soul
Why Mama Why is this burden so heavy
Why Mama Why should I forgive 'fore I'm ready
Why Mama Why should my faith be steady
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why is this burden so heavy
Why Mama Why should I forgive 'fore I'm ready
Why Mama Why should my faith be steady
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why
Though I cry, I cry
My God has left my side
I can't help, but fear
That these prayers fall, on deaf ears
Why Mama Why is this burden so heavy
Why Mama Why should I forgive 'fore I'm ready
Why Mama Why should my faith be steady
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why is this burden so heavy
Why Mama Why should I forgive 'fore I'm ready
Why Mama Why should my faith be steady
Why Mama Why
Why Mama Why
