(+) No Matter What
When I was a young boy
I was scared of growing up
I didn't understand it
But I was terrified of love
Felt like I had to choose
But it was outta my control
I needed to be saved
I was going crazy on my own
It took me years to tell my mother
I expected the worst
I gathered all the courage in the world
She said I love you no matter what
I just want you to be happy
And always be who you are
She wrapped her arms around me
Said don't try to be what you're not
Cause I love you no matter what
She loves me no matter what
I got a little older wishing
All my time away
Riding on the pavement
Every sunny day was grey
I trusted in my friends then
All my world came crashing down
I wish I never said a thing
Cause to them I'm a stranger now
I ran home I saw my mother
It was written on my face
Felt like I had a heart of
Glass about to break
She said I love you no matter what
I just want you to be happy
And always be who you are
She wrapped her arms around me
Said don't try to be what you're not
Cause I love you no matter what yeah
Now I'm a man and I'm so much wiser
I walk the earth with my head held higher
I got the love that I need
But I was still missing one special piece
My father looked at me
He said I love you no matter what
I just want you to be happy
And always be who you are
He wrapped his arms around me
Said don't try to be what you're not
Cause I love you no matter what
He loves me no matter what
And they love me no matter what
