Lyrics

Riding with the Son

Father and Son
A balancing of everything.
How does this feel?
I show you whats real.
I try to make you understand.
Father to Son.
Son to Man

Struck by a stone
Of clarity it comes to me.
Father to son has come undone

Hey, hey!
Did He tell you it would play this way?
Did you think it'd go this far?
Father to Son.
Father to Son.

Pride in the fall.
Is that the lot you've given me?
Or did I make the call?
I see a tree.
One for You and one for me.
Father to Son.
Son to man.

Hey, hey!
Did He tell you it would play this way?
Father to son.

Hey, hey.
Hey, hey.
Father to Son.
Follow the Son.

Father to Son.
A balancing of everything.
You showed me whats real
You tried to make me understand...
