A heartfelt song reflecting the internal struggles and fears of a new father contemplating his ability to raise a child, this track delves into the emotional journey of wanting to be the best for their little one while grappling with self-doubt and anxiety about the future.
Verse 1:
I'm standing in the mirror, staring at my face,
Wondering if I'm ready to take on this new place.
With every whispered promise, with every single prayer,
I can't shake this feeling that I'm lost in the air.
Chorus:
What if I falter, what if I fall?
What if I'm not the hero, just another wall?
In the shadows of my doubts, I try to find the light,
Hoping that my love will guide me through the night.
Verse 2:
I see the tiny fingers, grasping at my hand,
A fragile little life, an uncharted land.
With every breath I take, I can feel the weight,
Of a thousand expectations, and a looming fate.
Chorus:
What if I falter, what if I fall?
What if I'm not the hero, just another wall?
In the shadows of my doubts, I try to find the light,
Hoping that my love will guide me through the night.
Bridge:
Oh, I want to be the strength you can lean on,
A beacon in the dark, like the first light of dawn.
But these fears keep creeping in, telling me I'm wrong,
Can I be the father that can keep you strong?
Chorus:
What if I falter, what if I fall?
What if I'm not the hero, just another wall?
In the shadows of my doubts, I try to find the light,
Hoping that my love will guide me through the night.
Outro:
So here I am, promising to try,
With every stumble, I’ll learn to fly.
For in the heart of every father, there's a hope to be more,
A love that opens up, like an endless door.
