Talisman

I'm reaching, i'm calling
but u don't seem 2 hear
i long 4 the hand of the man
the man who gave me life
no shoulder, 2 cry on
no law when my choice was wrong
my shadows of emptiness
i find them everywhere
(Chorus:)
i'll never know ( i'll never know )
the man i'll never be ( no, never)
i missed out on the arms that made me strong
but u won't get that from me (won't get that from me )
the woman, a mother
can only fill the shoes
but a boy needs a man
2 teach him how 2 be a man
i'll never know ( i'll never know )
the man i'll never be ( no, never )
1 thing i know ( 1 thing i know )
is my children will know who i am ( who i am )
cuz, i missed out on the arms that made me strong
but u won't get that from me ( won't get that from me )
(Solo)
(Chorus)
1 thing i know ( 1 thing i know )
is my children will know who i am (who i am )
4ever i intend that i will always be
the man i need 2 be
