Song Description

Growing up, father to pre-teen pep talk

Lyrics

The logic and the language
couldn't be any simpler than this
but it bounces off your ears, nothings sinking in
Now you're pushing all the limits
If I say five then you want six
I'm praying for an answer, I'm hoping we can get through this

Inside you're wondering what's gone wrong
Life's a crazy roller coaster you are on
I try to remember this is not your fault
But nobody's perfect

You can't expect to catch more bees with vinegar than honey
You get out of life what you put in
You can't fix the problem with things and money
It's your life jump right in

Your nature isn't nurtured
Your world just revolves around you
Child you don't realize some of us were young once too.
The actions and the damage
aren't as bad as they might seem
I know that you feel bad but you can always come to me

You're standing at the crossroads
The world is at your fingertips
your path is your choice
One foot in front of the other, I guarantee that you won't slip
