For a long time, I was the man in your life
when riding bikes
or out on hikes
or pitching strikes
Discovering the wonder of a pocket knife
I taught you how to throw that long pass
to block a kick
throw punches quick
do magic tricks
And even just how to mow the grass
Remember that hike up House Mountain?
we didn't stop
until the drop
the very top
It took us hours, but who was countin'?
You play my drums whenever you are here
I gotta say
you always play
better each day
Imagine where you'll be Senior year?
In a couple years, you'll be in Middle School
soon understand
the task at hand
to be a man
Is not always having to prove you're cool
