He said 'sit down son, we gotta talk'
I said 'its my life, Im gonna do what I want
Im not gonna crawl, Im gonna walk
Walk right out that door'
He said 'I used to be a lot like you
Theres nothing youve done that I didnt do'
I laughed and said 'Dad Im bullet proof
Weve been through this before'
I couldnt believe it there was a tear in my old mans eye
When I was leaving he tried to say goodbye
He said
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when youre humbled
The lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
Ive seen a couple of miles on a gravel road
Been taught a couple things that I didnt know
Now I even got a kid of my own starting to sound a lot like me
I learned a little thing called sacrifice
Given up on dreams, lost a couple fights
All anybody wants is a better life and something to believe
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when youre humbled
The lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
I couldnt believe it when the tears came to my eyes
It isnt easy standing on the other side
I said 'sit down son, we gotta talk
Hey its your life, youre gonna do what you want
I won't say crawl before you walk
Cause I heard my old man in my mind saying'
Stand tall when you stumble stay proud when youre humbled
All the lessons you learn won't be the ones you plan
Every step up that mountain will be more than worth counting
But when you walk through the valley may you walk like a man
And when you go on without me, walk like a man
Walk on
