You have the tendency
To still want to protect
What was once in the shadow
Of your footsteps
Until the sun blossomed,
Into a fiery flame
That day by day
Became harder to sustain,
Instead of attempting
To put out the blaze
Its proper to just enjoy
The warmth of the sunrays
I’m a man now,
Suffer me 2be free,
You’ve planted the flower,
Let God water the seed
Ive been in the garden
While you stood by
Held on to my roots,
Before reaching for the sky
Cherished the grounds,
And broke free in the wind
Say that I fall over
On you I can depend
To replant the soil,
To fertilize my mind,
Let me stand alone,
Promise I’ll be fine
I’m a man now,
Suffer me 2be free,
You’ve planted the flower,
Let God water the seed
