J4ymes - A Man Lyrics

Sometimes I get reminded of that very night
When the wind warned them about the dangers outside
A tent was swaying on a mountain so strong
Sheltering a father, a son, and a story gone wrong

He said son I know it's dark and you have seen enough
But I know you're strong
And a whole world's out there waiting
One that will need saving
Go on along
Just keep on breathing cos
I know I'm leaving but
Nothing will take you away from me

Outside are the demons they'll have to fight
The son is a fire, the son is a light
Their shallow breaths becoming one
The secrets of their past coming undone

He cried dad I know it's dark and we have seen enough
But I know we're strong
And a whole world's out there waiting
One that will need saving
Bring me along
Just keep on breathing cos
You can't be leaving me
Nothing will take you away from me

The father knew it was time that his boy became a man
The shelter that he made will soon no longer stand
He's praying, fading, aching

Whispering son I know it's dark and you have seen enough
But I know you're strong
And a whole world's out there waiting
One that will need saving
Go on along
I can't keep breathing and
I know I'm leaving but
Nothing will take me away from your heart
And nothing will take you away from my heart
I don't want to leave but this is where we must part
