Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
The time has come to break the silence
To tell truth behind the rage
The years of living in denial
The time has come to turn the page

[Pre-Chorus]
But it's hard to forgive
Even harder to forget

[Chorus]
I am a son without a father
He gave his name and walked away
I am a man, now a father
And I swear my son, oh, will never know that pain

[Verse 2]
I was a child, I was abandoned
Too young to fight, to have a say
Oh, God, what seemed so heavy handed
Made me the man I am today

[Pre-Chorus]
It's so hard to forgive
Even harder to forget

[Chorus]
I am a son without a father
He gave his name and walked away
I am a man, now a father
And I swear my son, oh, will never know that pain

[Bridge]
I will, I will be the space between the shadows
I will, I will be the light inside the sorrow
I will, I will
I swear my son will never know that pain

[Chorus]
'Cause I am a son without a father (I am a son without a father)
He gave his name and walked away (He gave his name and walked away)
I am a man, now a father (Now a father)
And I swear my son, oh, will never know that pain

[Outro]
He will never know that, never know that, never know that pain
(He will never know that pain)
He will never know that, never know that, never know that pain
(He will never know that pain)
