Fear

Tell my son
When he’s old enough
That his daddy tried
But he wasn’t man enough
No he wasn’t man enough

So I wrote this note
And I shed my tears
Mistakes are often made
When your gripped by love or fear
When your gripped by love or fear

Because its fear that’s got me to scared to dig my heels
Choosing the same path as my father chose to take
Learning from others has never been my strength
I just hope my little boy
Is nothing like me
Nothing like me

When the day comes
And he wants to know
He can track me down
By then I hope I’ll know
By then I hope I’ll know what to say

About this fear that’s got me to scared to dig my heals
Choosing the same path as my father chose to take
Learning from others has never been my strength
I just hope my little boy
Is nothing like me
Nothing like me

Patterns don’t change easily
I hope your mother gives you strength
Teaches you the proper way
Because I won’t be around
No I won’t be around
I wasn’t man enough
