“My Little Light (To My Son)”

[Verse 1] Wake up to steel, to sweat and dust, Same old grind, same broken trust. But deep inside, there’s something new— A reason now, and that reason is you. [Verse 2] Met your mother on a quiet street, She gave me love, made life complete. In this rough world, she lit a flame, And then came you—you bear my name. [Pre-Chorus] I’ve walked through fire, through lonely nights, But now I stand with clearer eyes. [Chorus] For you, my little light—my son, my pride, I’ll f***t this world, I’ll never hide. If I fall, you rise and run, You are my reason, you are my son. [Verse 3] Your tiny fists wrapped ‘round my hand, You don’t yet know, but you’ll understand. This life is hard, this life is loud, But I’ll protect you, I’ll make you proud. [Bridge] I’m not a king, I wear no crown, Just a man who won’t let you down. I’ll build the road I never had, So you can rise, strong and glad. [Chorus 2] For you, my little light—my son, my pride, I’ll brave the storm, I’ll turn the tide. Take my lessons, take my scars, You’re my fire, my northern star. [Final Chorus] (modulation up, full harmony) For you, my little light—my son, my name, I’d walk through loss, I’d walk through flame. If my path ends here tonight, You carry me… My little light. [Outro – fade out with guitar echoes] Shine on, shine strong… My boy, be more than me… My little light…
