There comes a time when Mom must say no
There's the door son, now you must go
Go out into the world and make it your own
At times you will be hungry, cold, and alone
Learn how to work and break a sweat
If you sow bad seeds you must reap the regrets
You may have to learn in the school of hard knocks
But, it's your decision now to have or have not
You will stray far away then call me for money
I will have to say - sorry I can't help you, honey
You will think of me as selfish, cruel, and unloving
But, Son know this - the hardest thing I ever do for you is when I do nothing
