Tell me how the circle ends
There's no beginning
Everything that came before
Will come round again
And I look in the mirror
My fathers eyes look back at me
He gave me a road to choose
He gave me freedom
And I pray I'm strong enough
To walk in his shoes
And I hope that I become
Half the man he'd want me to be
Cos I feel you guiding me
Showin me the way when I'm misdirected
I know your not here but I feel connected
Chorus
Cos everything that I am
Comes from a better man
And all that I've said and done
Can't rewrite my history
Right there for all to see
I'm just my father's son
Taught me to walk, now I run
Now I run
Sometimes when I lose myself
In my weakness
I can feel the touch of his
Unmistakable hands
And they're pushing me forward
Back into the circle again
And I hope my son sees in me
The kind of man that he was to me
Chorus
And everything that I am
comes from a better man
And all that I've said and I've done
Can't rewrite my history
Right there for all to see
I'm just my fathers son
Taught me to walk, now I run
I run
