Michael Carpenter and The Banks Brothers - My Father's Son

I look in the mirror, all I see
My father's face looking back at me
From when I was a boy to where I am
He taught me how to be a man

When I was young he taught me fun
Respect and care for everyone
I learned to stand for what I believe
Work hard for the things my family'd need

There's nothing like blood to bind you right
Heart and soul nuff for every fight
No need to hide from the man I've become
I am my father's son

When he met my mother, he still will say
He hit the jackpot big that day
The way he still looks at his wife
You know that woman, she saved his life

My father's hands they held me strong
Taught me and my brothers bout right and wrong
That working hard makes the world go round
About getting up strong when I got pushed down

There's nothing like blood to bind you right
Heart and soul nuff for every fight
No need to hide from the man I've become
I am my father's son
Yeah, I am my father's son

I wake each morning, a dad I am
Take on that job the best I can
I live my life proud to proclaim
And share in others my father's name

There's nothing like blood to bind you right
Heart and soul nuff for every fight
No need to hide from the man I've become
I am my father's son
Yeah, I am my father's son
Yeah, I am my father's son
