(Montell) I know, I'm not the man you thought I'd be We started out so young Your mother, and me I know that I hurt you I was a child trying to be a man I walked out on my only son I left you in your mother's hands And now I'm standing right here With tears, with tears streaming from my eyes See your mother raised a fine young man And I know I missed so much of your life
Look at me Take a real good look at me Don't turn away Don't you turn away like I did my son I'm making no more promises I'm trying to find the word to say
