One Day (My Son) Lyrics

Verse 1;

My son, my joy, my life, my boy

Time flies quick, from a cradle to your toys

Before more time flies by

I gotta teach you what I know

All the who, the what, where and why

Like Pops told me, you never really know

Until you see it thru my eyes

And even though sometimes I realize

I got so much to learn and teach ya

One day, I hope that I can reach ya

Right now, you don’t understand

But the plan is for you to grow to be a good man

And now here I am, Tryna be better than

Just another weekend dad, Tryna do as much as I can

And can’t nobody tell you what you can’t do

If you got two arms, two legs, two hands, two eyes

And a brain you can use if you choose to be wise

And you can rise, To be great!

Chorus

One day you will rise as the sun

Cause one day you know that I’ll be gone

One day you will rise as the son

Cause one day…one day… one day…

Verse 2;

Now take a look son, Cause now I’m writing for you

All the hours put in, I’m providing for you

Each smile on your face, A gift from God’s grace

An angel in the flesh so hard to replace

What can I say to make you see

You’re the reason why I live

The knowledge that I have, is all that I can give

So first you should know…

There are no guarantees in life, and so…

Missed opportunities don’t come twice

And I’m sorry if at times…

It might sound dumb

But do as I say, and not as I’ve done

And that’s the best advice I can give my son

And the rest we can learn along the way

Cause life is what you make of it

And a message is a lesson, if you take from it

So by the time I let you go, I wanna see you hit the ground runnin

And if you fall, I’ll be there and you can count on it

Chorus 2

One day you will rise as the sun

Cause one day you know that I’ll be gone

One day you will rise as the son

Cause one day…one day… one day…
