Kylie Morgan - Scratching the Surface

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2001873
Verse 1
Lord, I swear my mama's prayers have saved me more than once
Sky could fall, I'd never know, 'cause she would hold it up
Losing sleep, each breath she breathed, she did it all for us
But what happens to mama when the kids grow up?

Chorus
There's something in the water between a mother and a daughter
No matter where I'm going, I'm never leaving you
You gave me your light, now it's your time to shine
And the more that I'm growing, you don't know what to do
So don't you cry, mama
This is a good problem
Your past ain't your purpose, no
You'rе only scratching the surface
Oh, and you desеrve it

Verse 2
Can't believe just 23, with a kid of your own
And all the years, the love, the tears, it's all you've ever known
Selfish ain't a word that ever fit you well
But now it's your turn to go and give 'em hell

Chorus
Oh, there's something in the water between a mother and a daughter
No matter where I'm going, I'm never leaving you
You gave me your light, now it's your time to shine
And the more that I'm growing, you don't know what to do
So don't you cry, mama
This is a good problem
Your past ain't your purpose, no
You're only scratching the surface
Oh, and you deserve it

Bridge
Every mountain I've climbed
Was a mountain you moved
No doubt in my mind
I'm me because of you
There's nothing you can't do

Chorus
So don't you cry, mama
This is a good problem
Your past ain't your purpose, no
You're only scratching the surface
Oh, and you deserve it

Outro
Lord, I swear my mama's prayers have saved me more than once

"Scratching the Surface" by Kylie Morgan is a heartfelt tribute to the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter. The song reflects on the sacrifices and love that a mother gives to her children, and how that dynamic changes as the children grow up and become adults themselves. The lyrics speak to the idea that it is now the daughter's turn to support and uplift her mother, who may be struggling to find her own purpose now that her children are grown. The chorus emphasizes the deep connection between the two, and the bridge highlights the strength and resilience that the mother has instilled in her daughter. Overall, "Scratching the Surface" is a beautiful reminder of the enduring love and support that exists between a mother and her child.
