Cornerstone at the Kitchen Table

Family memory

Tia Maria's opening single — warmth at the kitchen table, love in every meal, and the feeling of home that holds a family together.

Lyrics

Transcribed from the recording — close to the song, but not always word-perfect.

For beautiful daughters, you paved every road
Lifting the weight and the heaviest load
Maria, your kitchen is where we all start
A house made of sunshine, a home for the heart
Now the laughter of grandchildren rings through the halls
Love is the language that speaks from these walls
Mama, you are the heart that keeps us together
In every season and every kind of weather
Mama, your love is the light that won't fade
The beautiful home that your sacrifice made
You don't want the title that makes you feel old
You're chasing the future, you're brave and you're bold
From AI and stocks to the screens that we hold
You're writing a story that's yet to be told
You're learning the code and you're making a scene
That growth never ends, whatever your age might be
Mama, you are the heart that keeps us together
In every season and every kind of weather
Mama, your love is the light that won't fade
The beautiful home that your sacrifice made
You are the foundation, the cornerstone stone
The strongest of pillars that we've ever known
We're rooted in you and we're starting to grow
The seeds that you planted are starting to show
Oh, Mama, thank you, Maria
We love you, Mama
