Long
I've been running away for far too long
Afraid of what
Afraid of what I know is soon to come

I may not be much of an example right now
But I can give you all of my knowledge on how
To get along in this place, right now all I can say

Is that I will do the best that I can
To be a good example of man
And I know one day that you'll understand
You deserve the best that I am
You deserve the best that I am

It's so hard
So hard to think about when I was a child
So angry at life
I blamed the world for such a long, long time

But things happened so quickly some people just go
I needed answers to heal me, I wanted to know
How to get by and now it's my turn to say

That I will do the best that I can
To be a good example of man
And I know one day that you'll understand
You deserve the best that I am

So I gotta do the best that I can
To be a good example of man
And I know one day that you'll understand
You deserve the best that I am, I am, I am

This is all for you
This is all for you

Things won't always go right in this life
There's always changes, we'll make it

That's why I gotta do the best that I can
To be a good example of man
And I know one day that you'll understand
You deserve the best that I am, I am, I am

And I will
'Cause I will
I will
I will do the best that I can
