The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm reaching, i'm calling
But u don't seem 2 hear
I long 4 the hand of the man
The man who gave me life
No shoulder, 2 cry on
No law when my choice was wrong
My shadows of emptiness
I find them everywhere
Chorus:
I'll never know ( i'll never know )
The man i'll never be ( no, never)
I missed out on the arms that made me strong
But u won't get that from me (won't get that from me )
The woman, a mother
Can only fill the shoes
But a boy needs a man
2 teach him how 2 be a man
I'll never know ( i'll never know )
The man i'll never be ( no, never )
1 thing i know ( 1 thing i know )
Is my children will know who i am ( who i am )
Cuz, i missed out on the arms that made me strong
But u won't get that from me ( won't get that from me )
Solo
Chorus
1 thing i know ( 1 thing i know )
Is my children will know who i am (who i am )
4ever i intend that i will always be
The man i need 2 be
