Humbling Fatherhood

Khalid Mukhtar · September 1, 2011 · Leave a Comment

‘Fit weren’t for fatherhood
I’d never’ve understood
That all the hurt my Dad did blurt
Had come from something good
‘Fit weren’t for fatherhood
I’d never’ve understood
That every time he lost his mind
He’d done the best he could
‘Fit weren’t for fatherhood
I’d never’ve understood
That if I can be half the man
As he, then I’d be good.
