Good Man

(앨범: Land Of The Living - 2023)

If you'd asked me at 10 years old the man I'd want to be
I'd've said Billy Graham or Superman or somewhere in between
The hero in the story who stands up for what is right
The kind of guy you want by your side if it came down to a fight

Oh oh oh I still wanna be, still wanna be
Oh oh oh I still wanna be that man

Now I'm 40 years from 10 years old, with a history of mistakes
Chose that kryptonite so many times I'll never wear that cape
I can't take back all the damage that I've left along the way
But I can own my sin and make amends and try another day

Oh oh oh I still wanna be, still wanna be
Oh oh oh I still wanna be that man

Strong enough to take a stand, a good man
Not afraid of tenderness, a good man
Heaven can you help me be who I wanna be?
Father, can you make that kind of man out of me?
A good man, A good man

I want to be the kind of man a woman's not afraid to trust
The kind of friend you call at 3 AM 'cause you know that they'll show up
A man who keeps his word, who's known for his integrity
When I get it wrong let me be known for my apology

Oh oh oh I still wanna be that man

Strong enough to take a stand, a good man
Not afraid of tenderness, a good man
Heaven can you help me be who I wanna be?
Father, can you make that kind of man out of me?
A good man, A good man

I know one day my children will stand beside my grave
If nothing else I hope I leave good things for them to say
Oh oh oh until that day I hope they see
Oh oh oh though I stumble I'm still trying to be

Strong enough to take a stand, a good man
Not afraid of tenderness, a good man
Heaven can you help me be who I wanna be?
Father, can you make that kind of man out of me?
A good man, A good man
