lyrics

My father isn't perfect but whoever is
He treats me like his father did him, and his father's father with his
And psychologically these relationships live on
Cause although they were known as fathers, they were once also sons

But if I were a father, well, what kind of one would I be?
I've watched my friends become fathers and they take it seriously
Though many defend having kids passionately
I won't claim to know the struggle but it doesn't look easy

Isn't my life already complicated enough?
As I fill up my time with things I like to think that I love
Though I'd be lying about a love that I ever felt
Dare to care more for another than I ever could myself

To raise another well-adjusted individual
And pass on my traits and flaws, hope, fears, and all
Watch the years go by as he grows up to be
A reflection of my father's father, my father, and me

Delicate Flowers recommends:

Chasing Transcendence
by All Sensory Void

This started as a solo project that eventually grew in to a three-piece band. I'm very proud of 2016's Chasing Transcendence and 2015's Secret Truth of the Universe. The Cure crossed with Nirvana. Delicate Flowers

Raging Hot
by NGHTCRWLRS

This is another band I play guitar and sing in. Our music is sort of a psychedelic, funk punk rock. Check out 2016's Raging Hot and our self titled from 2015. Delicate Flowers

Die Happy
by The Nico Blues

This is my old band where I played bass, guitar and co-sang. We worked really hard and I think the music shows a lot of heart. Delicate Flowers
