Styles Haury - When a Father’s Born lyrics

He's been reckless, he's been useless
He's been everything that everyone
Says youth is
His wild side, his out-all-nights
Are just a box of memories now
In the back of his mind

When a father's born, he feels a fear
Life gets real
It's both hands on the wheel from here
When a father's born, the boy fades away
The man he never thought he
Could be takes his place
When a father's born

He's up half the night, works all day
Those little hands and toes have changed
All those prayers he prays
His world was tough, oh
Now it looks too rough for the first time
It feels like the world ain't good enough

When a father's born, he feels a fear
Life gets real
It's both hands on the wheel from here
When a father's born, the boy fades away
The man he never thought he
Could be takes his place
When a father's born

When a father's born, he feels a fear
Life gets real
It's both hands on the wheel from here
When a father's born, oh, the boy fades away
The man he never thought he
Could be takes his place
When a father's born

Now he knows what his daddy meant
When he used to say
"Boy, you think you know it all
But you just wait"

When a father's born, he feels a fear
Life gets real
It's both hands on the wheel from here
When a father's born, the boy fades away
The man he never thought he
Could be takes his place
When a father's born

'Cause when a father's born
He feels a fear life gets real
It's both hands on the wheel from here
When a father's born, oh, the boy fades away
The man he never thought he
Could be takes his place
When a father's born when a father's born
