Son Rise

Let the sun fade out and another one rise!

I won't shed a tear.

I won't even cry.

I'll let my fears hide

I force this façade of mine

To approach the dawn with only pride.

Strong and stronger, for the little ones

Today we can't afford to die.

Just remind me of the light inside

I swear for them I'll forever shine.

I can’t always raise my head

I can’t always forget the mistakes of the dead

But I’ll sacrifice for a future I can't buy.

I’ll wear cheap bandages to buy fancier toys.

I’ll let the sting of cardinal sins wear off just to know you’re fine.

A blue pastel ring around my tub.

That I scrub without soup.

Cause I need to earned that father’s day cup.

Touch my hands before you bury me and that will be my greatest joy.
