No Matter What lyrics

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

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"

She loves me no matter what

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

They love me no matter what
