My name is Pamela, I know who I am
Faithful and solid, doing the best that I can
I try to be a rock for the people I love
When the waters get rough and the clouds roll above
True to my family, my partner, my friends
Leading with empathy right to the end
Keeping my humor when the shadows get long
Just trying to stay steady and strong
Chorus'Cause you gotta be kind, you gotta be patient
Give all your love without hesitation
Hold on to the moments, give all you've got
'Cause you never really know when the clock stops
Yeah, you never really know when the clock stops
Verse 2I've walked through the valleys and carried the weight
Felt the deep heavy heartbreak of losing my Mom
And saying goodbye to Rick took a piece of my soul
Sometimes I wonder how I carried on
But I learned that the grief is just love holding on
And the spirit remains even after they're gone
So I wipe away tears and I look at the sky
And I promise to live while I'm alive
Chorus'Cause you gotta be kind, you gotta be patient
Give all your love without hesitation
Hold on to the moments, give all you've got
'Cause you never really know when the clock stops
Yeah, you never really know when the clock stops
BridgeThen the light circles back through my kids and their kids
A beautiful legacy growing so bright
When little Rickaelah came into the world
She brought back the morning and chased out the night
A new little heartbeat to carry the name
Reminding me love is a constant flame
Final ChorusSo I'm gonna be kind, I'm gonna be patient
Give all my love without hesitation
I'll hold on to my people, give all that I've got
'Cause you never really know when the clock stops
Yeah, you never really know when the clock stops
I'll stay solid and true, give it all that I've got
Before the clock stops
