[verse]
I’m gonna do this right
Unlike the one before me
I’m gonna do this right
Be the one he was supposed to be
[verse]
Show more then a sample
Be the perfect example
Give the life
That they sacrificed
[pre chorus]
Placing first in line
Be the eye sight
When lost and blind
Train for the fight
[chorus]
Take ‘em by the hand and lead the way
Scare the monsters to keep them at bay
And when they close their eyes
It’ll be for sleep and not for cries
[verse]
I wrote it off
Like it’d never happen to me
I wrote it off
To never expanding my company
[verse]
I wanna be the staple
Non fiction not another fable
Discussions at the table
Be the structure in stable
[pre chorus]
Placing first in line
Be the eye sight
When lost and blind
Train for the fight
[chorus]
Take ‘em by the hand and lead the way
Scare the monsters to keep them at bay
And when they close their eyes
It’ll be for sleep and not for cries
Take ‘em by the hand and lead the way
I wanna be the sentence that they say
When I closed my eyes
It was for goodnight not goodbyes
[bridge]
Writings been the thing to save me
But now I gotta stop crying like a baby
This past year really changed me
Exhausted all of my complaining
Now I have this new state of mind
Now I’m gonna raise my own kind
I’m gonna be the best father
To my son or my daughter
[pre chorus]
Placing first in line
Be the eye sight
When lost and blind
Train for the fight
[chorus]
Take ‘em by the hand and lead the way
Scare the monsters to keep them at bay
And when they close their eyes
It’ll be for sleep and not for cries
Take ‘em by the hand and lead the way
I wanna be the sentence that they say
When I closed my eyes
It was for goodnight not goodbyes
[bridge 2]
I’ve learned so much
I am enough
I’ve learned so much
I’ve got so much love
[outro]
(I’ve learned so much)
Writings been the thing to save me
But now I gotta stop crying like a baby
(I am enough)
This past year really changed me
Exhausted all of my complaining
(I’ve learned so much)
Now I have this new state of mind
Now I’m gonna raise my own kind
(I’ve got so much love)
I’m gonna be the best father
To my son or my daughter
