Lyrics
ima - i am (Ima means mother in Hebrew)
Verse1
My mother gave life to me and made me to be - My own personality though we were one before I came into being
And so when I go, now I understand - that I am hers and I am that I am
Chorus 1
I am that I am that I am that I am - IMA I'm Yours and I am that I am
Verse2
And so when I walk on the Earth I go slow, 'cause she feels everything and I love her so.
And you'll see, her beauty, the light her eyes shine, so much love in this woman, so proud I am
Chorus 2
I am that I am that I am that I am - So Proud I'm hers and I am that I am
Verse3
And I pray that all of the wrongs that I've done her, are gone, she's strong and I attune her
To the psalng, that's the same, if I called out her name, I'd say Bathsheva you'd say...
Chorus 3
I am that I am that I am that I am - She says Shlomo, I say I am
Verse 4
And if I could only share two words with you Mom - thank you I'd say with all that I am
Chorus 4
I am that I am that I am that I am - Thank you I'd say with all...
that I am that I am that I am that I am - I say Ima cause you said I am
