Mamas weren’t meant to be daddies, too.
I think the single mom is the one who has more bravery than most, for she sets out to do the impossible, filling two roles with only one heart and one set of hands. Empty Parts is my anthem for her.

"Empty Parts"
I couldn’t tie your Sunday tie
God forbid I cast a fishing line,
Pitch a tent or change a tire,
But I did it just for you
I kissed your bruises and your scars
Taught you good looks only go so far
So hun, you gotta work hard in all you do
Man, I tried to fill both sets of those shoes
But there are some things a momma can’t do
When it comes to making a man outta you
Some days I’m not all that you need
But I’ll prove some people don’t leave
I’ll keep loving you with all that I am
Even if it’s not how a Father can
I just pray my Mother's heart
Can spill over into the empty parts
Boy, I raised you to be kind
And that It’s ok to cry
But honey you can’t lie under this roof
Showed you how to open doors
That you can’t take what ain’t yours
And with that girl you’re falling for, don’t act a fool
Did my best to wear both sets of those shoes
But there are some things a momma can’t do
When it comes to making a man outta you
Some days I’m not all that you need
But I’ll prove some people don’t leave
I’ll keep loving you with all that I am
Even if it’s not how a Father can
I just pray my Mother's heart
Can spill over into the empty parts
And I failed endlessly
So I lived on my knees
Pleading with the only father you had in your life
That in some small way I did you right
Cause there are some things a momma can't do
When it comes to making a man outta you
Some days I still ain't what you need
But I’ll prove some people don’t leave
And I’ll keep loving you with all that I am
Even if it’s not how a Father can
I just pray my Mother's heart
Can spill over into the empty parts
