Brace yourself
It’s already been a bumpy ride
But we’re riding it out for the long haul

I will demand respect in any given room
Because I expect to get back whatever I put in

I want to walk with my shoulders back
I want everyone to say that I worked for something bigger than what we think we Deserve
We Deserve to choose our fate, because fate just means that it’s out of our hands
And let me tell you, nothing is out of my hands

It’s time I leave the nest
No one has a heart like mine

Little man, always walk with your head held high
Be proud of where you came from
My baby girl, just know whatever man you bring into my house
Will never hold a candle next to you

At home is a mother that misses her son
He’s off chasing dreams and having his fun
I swear I have something worth writing about
It‘s here in this moment, it’s right here, right now
Dad, I promise to lead with our name in mind
We’re as tall as we feel until the day we die
And there will be generations of giants for years to come

There’s a reason that we chose to let the right one in
Because a good title is somewhere to begin
And the subtitles are more than okay with me
If any and all integrity is somewhere overseas

I don’t know if I can be without love this long
I think chance has just come back for round two
I don’t know if I can be without her this long
I want to sow my oats and have her here when I come home

But it doesn’t work that way
For the world you could save
For the girl you should stay
And have a child
Perhaps a boy with my eyes
Or maybe a girl with yours
Maybe all along who I create will be the cure
For the torture change has made just so much harder to endure
But no not anymore, love has been the only thing to strike the chords of might

No one has the heart that I have
No one has a heart like mine

My son, always walk with your head held high
Be proud of where you came from
My daughter, just know whatever man you bring into my house
Will never hold a candle next to you
You are both my pride and joy
My little girl and my little boy
Chins up, you two are going to change lives
