My Little Soldier

I know it has not been easy for you

You are growing up and you barely even know me

I’m still tryna get closer to you every minute that I can

This might all happened too fast and I know deep inside you’re tryna understand

I know I’m not the World Greatest Dad

But I hope that you will give me the chance to prove that I can be that

Or even one day you will be proud of me

I wish that I can change our destiny

And hopefully our life can be better

Chorus

Everything’s gonna be over before you know it

Just close your eyes and go to sleep

Don’t you worry about a thing

I’ll be right here beside you, watching you sleep

You will always be my lil soldier

The four walls has been my companion for the past few years

Grandma always told me that things happened for a reason

Now I see what it really means

Yes, you are growing up and pretty mature

But you can’t hide that loneliness in your eyes

I know mama is always gone

But that doesn’t mean she don’t care

I know you hardly have someone to talk to

It doesn’t matter now, daddy’s here

I’m sorry that you had to go through all this

I promise you I will give you the life I never had

Let the past be bygones and seize the future together

Chorus

Everything’s gonna be over before you know it

Just close your eyes and go to sleep

Don’t you worry about a thing

I’ll be right here beside you, watching you sleep

You will always be my lil soldier

Now I promise you that imma try and give you what you need

I will only give you the best of things

I’ll make sure you don’t turn out the way I did

I’ll do anything just to keep that smile on your face

You will always be my lil soldier
