[Verse 1]
Mama made it look easy
Daddy sure seemed tough
Just a two bedroom apartment
But I was one of the lucky ones
Looking back I didn't see it
'Til I turned 25
And just like that it hit me
That we were just alike

[Chorus]
My mom's her mother's daughter
My dad's his father's son
No capes or super powers
Like I thought when I was young
It took some time to realize
They're human just like us
Never had it figured out
But I can never do without
A mother's daughter and father's son

[Verse 2]
Never saw my mama crying
Always hiding the truth
She could've taught me to give up
And that was something she would never do
I finally started to see it
When I hit 35
They didn't have it all figured out
Living life for the first time
[Chorus]
My mom's her mother's daughter
My dad's his father's son
No capes or super powers
Like I thought when I was young
It took some time to realize
They're human just like us
Never had it figured out
But I can never do without
A mother's daughter and father's son

[Outro]
Mama made it look easy
Daddy sure seemed tough
Just a two bedroom apartment
But I was one of the lucky ones
