We all have our own idea of what
We think a mother is supposed to be
Well today I want to set all mothers free
Free from the stereotype, free to be human
And not always right, free to be rude and
not
Always polite, free to be a girlfriend and
Maybe not a wife, and free to live her life
Without guilt, and shame, without
Being called out of her name
After today being a mother will never be
the same
Should a mother always have to fight?
Or be right, polite, and nice

Some mothers are saints and some are not
Some have a little and some have a lot
And that’s a fact, yet mothers often get
Attacked for not being perfect
So, I ask you it is really worth it
Yes, mothers play a huge part in society
But mothers come in an assorted variety
Mothers are white, light, tight, dark as
the night
and sometimes a delight
Mothers are sometimes rude, and today
They may just have been a dude
Some mothers even come with lots attitude
So, it’s not safe to conclude that all
mothers are
The same, mothers can have a Variety of
names
Some mothers are even call plain Jane’s
some are even said be insane, inflamed, and
inhumane
Some mothers are right, some are wrong
Some love to party and stay out all night
long
Some fuss and some may sing songs
Who are we to say which one is right or
wrong?
Some bear children, some may adopt
Some are weak, and some strong as a rock
Some carry the Bible and some carry a Glock
Some are lazy and some work around the
clock
Some like gospel and some like pop
Some mothers think, some may wink
Some smell good and some may stink
Some may smoke and some may drink
The truth is it doesn’t matter what we
think
Because a mother has a hard job
And with our judgement we often rob
Rob what this role really means
Not understanding what goes on
Behind the scenes, we’ll today
Let freedom ring and build all
Mother’s self -esteem, being a mother
Doesn’t mean being perfect
But being a mother is always worth it!
