By Howard Aronson
This lyric is about my mother obviously, and her true love for me. I'm her only son and the oldest of two, as I have a younger sister. No matter what I've done, but gone through she's always been there to lend a hand, to pick me up when I was down, and just to show me the love that a mother shows her child. I just had lunch with her the other day, and sat and talked with her for over 2 hours. That's the first time in a long time that I've been able to sit down and have a comfortable conversation with her, because of my past, and my guilt. She doesn't have any resentments toward me or have any notions of me being a troubled, mixed up, bad guy. She sees me as successful, loving, kind, karen, and extremely empathetic and responsive to others needs. I gave my father credit for the creativity, as he was highly talented as a painter, writer, photographer, and a top advertising executive. But I have to give my mother all the credit for me being the loving person that I am. I would lend a hand to anybody, and I try not to judge anyone. I know my mother never judged me.
