I only give my help,
For what is wrong with that?
I don't deserve these spats.
I want to see you grow.
Not to see you in the bottom.
Struggling is ok, but so is taking my open hand.
I just want to support you while you stand.
Not to make you feel like I doubt you.
I do not feel that way at all.
I just want to see you rise tall.
I'll push you til your mad.
To one day see you're glad.
Even if it means you'll resent me.
I'll do it anyway.
Because the bottom is not where you'll stay.
Potential is at the surface bay.
And there's no doubt in what I say.
