And if you got one, love oneâ¦
You're lucky just to have just oneâ¦
One mother, one sister, one daughter, one wife
Once lost in the darkness; blessed by sunlight
Once blind to the bounties of livin' â Lord, surround me with four women
To symbolize life; I'm born twice
For forty days and nights weathered the storm's tug
My mother's fear of the water taught me how to swim above
I fought waves as she prayed and never gave up
Her faith saved me, and I just wanna say âthank you for your loveâ¦â
My memories of childhood are like dreams
I'm a drifter â thinkin' of my sister's like scenes
Of a movie; me screamin' âyou're not my mom,â set to swing
You holdin' me yellin' to me âI'm the next best thingâ
Six years of separation's damn near a generation
But you never stopped trying to understand my motivation
And you always had my back when push came to shove
We're the same blood, through the rain's floods â âthank you for your loveâ
I've said it before, I'll say it to my death
I will never fully comprehend just why God left you
In my hands, when I could hardly stand, I guess
It was significant that you and I would take our first steps
In stride â me as a follower, you as a guide
Revealer of the way as you explain I play the scribe
Leader of the tribe â reason that Abeo came alive
My name, my pride, I take time to âthank you for your loveâ
Who would have ever thought we'd come this far?
Two renegades who finally made their way to the stars
Built a bridge over the river of doubt and made âsoundâ
The foundation on which we would build this house
And aint that what matrimony's about; a shared vision?
We draw on the strengths of intellect and intuition
You're the symbolism of liberated women, the definition of
What a companion does â âthank you for your loveâ
Thank you all for your support in my times of need
Your belief in me empowers me to lead
And they wonder how I stand this firm to transgressions
Y'all taught to me the lessons every man must learn
Mother showed me how to fold my hands and thank God
Through my sister's eyes â compromise was not hard
My daughter teaches me honesty and honestly
My wife teaches love for my mother, now my cipher's complete
(That's one loveâ¦)
One mother, one sister, one daughter, one wife
Once lost in the darkness; blessed by sunlight
Once blind to the bounties of livin' â Lord, surround me with four women
To symbolize life; I'm born twice
And lucky enough to have known a love like this
My dedication â the inspiration to write this
We're consolidatin' the family ties â we're drawn tight
Knowin' things are gonna be alrightâ¦
