This is how I'm ending up 
She's got her finger on the trigger 
She's got no sense of motherhood 
It's so not what it's supposed to be between her and me 
A prisoner of a wrecked mind 
I lost control of space and time 
Now every second feels like an hour 
My life is in her power 
Mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the head 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So why you wanna see me dead? 
Now mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the face 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So let me finish my race 
Mama put your gun down 
(mama put your gun down) 
Cold, cold eyes and cold cold heart 
She always hated me right from the start 
Go easy mom, just take it slow 
She told me I'm the lowest of the low 
I can't stand more of this freak show 
I better jsut take off and go 
But there is no way to escape 
I'm stuck in her mistake, no! 
Mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the head 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So why you wanna see me dead? 
Now mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the face 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So let me finish my race 
Mama put your gun down 
(mama put your gun down) 
Some say that history repeats itself 
Well just ask me because I know damn well 
I've had the same nightmare for years and years now 
I guess it manifests my greatest fears now 
So what's the deal mom? 
Could this be real mom? 
Or am I one pathetic mislead daughter 
Blaming all the wrongs in my life on you 
When I'm the one responsible 
I wanna go to the Vegas 
And let the sun shine on me 
But I guess that it's return now 
'casue you're pointing it right at me 
Mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the head 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So why you wanna see me dead? 
Now mama put your gun down 
Don't shoot me in the face 
I didn't do ya nothing wrong 
So let me finish my race 
Mama put your gun down 
(mama put your gun down)
