These lyrics remind me of my mother who was a single teen mom. With 22 years old she left my grandpas' house with a 4 years old son (me) and raised me by her own. I'm now a 29 years old professional with a couple of degrees thanks her constant support. I'm so proud of my mother.

Your mom is a queen, I hope you two live long and happy lives and get to spread all the joy in the world, and that you tell your kids (if you decide to have any) about her story, so that they know it is possible to make it through even the roughest times in life, and anyone can find happiness if they stick with it.

Tfw you don't have siblings

[@bisexualdisasterlol]

That verse hit close to home as my brother had recently been murdered when I first listened to this song. Hearing him sing about his sister like that felt as though I were hearing my brothers last words to me, almost as though he had sent of piece of himself from Hades realm(I'm pagan and worship/follow Hades as my god of death, therefore I believe we get sent there after death. Please do not argue with me on this or comment how it's weird or try to shove your viewpoints down my throat,) to show me he's still with me in heart and it'll be okay eventually. I still always do cry when I hear that part of the song. I miss you Bryan, I always will. I'm never gonna forget you and I'll live happily for you. Even though it's far away in time, I can't wait to see you again. I love you, forever and always big bro❤

Honey I'll be your older sister. You're gonna be okay. It's okay to feel lonely, it's okay to cry, but you are never alone. There is always someone there for you, whether you realize it or not, it's just a matter of finding that person. You're doing amazing, have a wonderful day and make sure you get yourself some food and water and a good nights rest.

I love this song for how everyone can have their own. “I’m 18, survivings pretty hard, with a meth addicted family trusting’s very hard and I’m scared to be betrayed again like my family has always done so I’m grateful for my bestie, even when she drives me mad When life wasn’t easy 6 years ago she popped into my life when I needed it the most I know she would never betray me so I hate to see her sad So I made this verse to tell her that I’m always on her side, I made this verse to tell her that I’m always on her side I made this verse to tell her that The world’s not perfect but it’s not that bad If we got each other, and that’s all we have I will be your sister, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you If the world’s not perfect When the world’s not kind If we have each other then we’ll both be fine I will be your sister, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you.”
