Destiny hadn't brought us face to face
Is how you would change my life
Turn me from a boy to a man
Becoming a father before i became a dad
Wish i was there for your first breath
Wish i could've helped with your first step
I finally understand the meaning of it now
I pray that life will always treat you kind
How could a man not wanna claim his own
Leaving a mother to raise a child alone
Maybe you were made for me
With everything that comes along
Ill give you my word, ill take it on
Wish i was there for your first breath
Wish i could've helped with your first step
I finally understand the meaning of it now
I pray that life will always treat you kind
When the world doesn't see you like i do
I'll be the eyes that guide and see you though
In the night when you cry and you call out my name
Your realise there's love surrounding you
Destiny hadn't brought us face to face
Is how you would change my life
Turn me from a boy to a man
Becoming a father before i became a dad
