Lyrics Pass It On (feat. Mr?E & Yamie Jamie) - Eric Dutton

Oh, I really needed you
I didn't know if I could make it on my own
(But I've grown, and I know)
You gave me everything I need
If you could see me and the seeds you
(Sowed in me, I hope you made it home)

I wish I could show you my book, Dad (yeah)
I wish I could show you my jump-shot (pure)
My beard is "Phil"ing out too
And my girl said she saw a couple white hairs
Three years old, I had a nightmare
I'm scared, I crawl into bed with you and Mom
And it's the safest that I've ever felt
(God damn, you were just right here, ah)
Having you as a dad, one in a billion
And I know several dudes who could claim the same
No coincidence that we get into this creativeness and fade away, ugh
But what I'm building?
A legacy that celebrates the life you gave, the life you made
There's nothing that I'd erase
I know you're with me, so light the way, please

Oh, I really needed you
I didn't know if I could make it on my own
(But I've grown, and I know)
You gave me everything I need
If you could see me and the seeds you
(Sowed in me, I hope you made it home)

I wouldn't be me if it wasn't for you
I'm the spitting image of you, I love you more than you knew
Just wishing I could hold you for a minute, maybe a few
I'm looking up at the sky and I know you painted it blue
Don't ever get it confused
I'm honored you are my father, but I see you everyday whenever I look at my daughter
And I just hear my own voice when she calling me Papa (hi Papa)
Tell her "thank your Grandpa for everything that I taught ya"
I would move a mountain if it got in your way
Got the strength of my father until I wither away
Cause I'm the son of a King that found a dragon to slay
Agony, pain, is what I felt when the tragedy came
But I ain't ever felt for a second that the magic's gone
And if you ever lost a parent now you have this song
This one's for the moments that should've lasted long
Hope my kids take what I gave them, and pass it on

Oh, I really needed you
I didn't know if I could make it on my own
(But I've grown, and I know)
You gave me everything I need
If you could see me and the seeds you
(Sowed in me, I hope you made it home)
