Fair warning ...  this is an emotionally intense song, a very dark failure within the mother-daughter relationship of Kupaji and her mom.  

ALWAYS - a story-song from 100 MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS. As a girl, Kupaji never received her mothers protection, yet survived abuse from her mother's boyfriend. As a mother, Kupaji provides protection and more for her daughter Shalanda, who sings of her pride and friendship with her mother who gave her so much, and ended the cycle! Trigger alert - abuse, powerful and painful.on hear for yourself ...
