Referee

I don't want to be your referee Taking sides And push & pull at me So take a seat There's a lot of things that you won't understand. The challenge as you make your way, young man Won't go as planned. But I'll be here. Right by your side You can lean on me When nothing's going right. I've got your back And I'll remain. I'm your advocate for ever and a day. The future is so bright But you don't see. The pressure that you face is strengthening The weaker things. One day you'll enter into who you are. Shaped by your triumphs Also by your scars – And you'll go far. And all the joy I find in you Will shower down as you struggle through My little man, my progeny Your success will be a treasured gift to me
