See, I was young When I started feeling numb Now look up at what I've become I used to be shunned While my father was second to none I just wanna be who he was I guess it was dumb Pretending that I knew my mum I wish I could have been a son But I couldn't run There's too much that needs to be done But imma have to be the one And so I would work for it Learn from mistakes, that I never made And that wouldn't change It hurts more When you've been through the pain That I've had to face Like every day I first swore A promise I've made You would hear me say that I'd keep her safe But couldn't.
