about

This song is dedicated to the women of Ukraine. I am donating 100% of sales from this song to the Ukrainian Women's Fund: uwf.org.ua/en/donate/.

About the Ukrainian Women's Fund:
Our mission is to support women and girls, the people of Ukraine in overcoming the consequences of Russian military aggression.

Each contribution will allow us to support women and girls who face humanitarian challenges caused by full-scale hostilities, as well as activists who are at the forefront of the volunteer movement and help those who need support the most!

The funds will be used to cover the urgent needs for water, food, medicine, hygiene, communication and other basic needs, with a focus on the most vulnerable groups of women and girls.

lyrics

"A Mother's War Song"
By Mikki Jordan

(lyrics):

I ran, I ran, I ran back home and then
I saw the sky around me fall then
I felt my child so sweetly take my hand
As we gathered our things and then

We ran, we ran, we ran away and then
We saw a woman alone and crying
"My love, my love, my love they took from me
And now they want to take my country...
We won't, we won't, we won't go quietly
This, my child, home, don't take from me."

I won't run and I will gun you down
And I will find my way out
As long as I keep my head down
My child I'll try and keep you safe
No matter what may come
I'll do my best to bring you home
