pushin forward back

mother

mother found me on her step

gracious mother held me to her breast

until the day i started pushin'

too late to cry

she turned away

i started pushin'

i saw no future in this lack

i started pushin' forward back

baby brother clinging to her hair

gracious

pleading not another

soul to bare

he started pushin'

all my kings have fallen down

i started pushin'

fallen heroes feed the ground

i started pushin' forward back

falling down

now i know her

i know i'll never drown

i was pushin' forward back
