Face Valyou - Like A Sun lyrics

[Chorus 1] You were like a son, I hope you're still shining Cultivate your sk**s, and grow to be giant I'll give a hug if I see you And if I don't, here's some love 'til I see you [Verse 1] A little devil-angel, get into trouble Hand in the cookie jar, reaching for a couple, developing hustles Always on the move, you made sure we worked our leg muscles And quickly picked up the tricks we fumbled Brick outside? Bet you were properly bundled Prolly left you feeling like your Thomas puzzle How moms and pops, shuffled you around, struggling Thought I knew just the thing, put you under my wing I tried to give some extra attention, stepped in when you had started taking chances Played rough, may get cut, wash it up, here's a bandage Backyardigans and Dora taught you basic Spanish One minute I'm with you, the next I vanished Wish there was a cartoon to help you understand this You were just a toddler planet, forming your own atmosphere And habits you set then, will stick with you 'til your latter years I wanna say I'm glad that you're here [Chorus 2] You were like a son, I hope you're still shining Young and defiant but keep your mother vibrant Explore the universe, learning the science And know people are routing for you, even if they're silent You were like a son, I hope you're still shining Cultivate your sk**s, and grow to be giant I'll give a hug if I see you And if I don't, here's some love 'til I see you [Verse 2] How you shining, son? What she does daughter? We're not the only heirs to the air, land, and water You remind me how to share and offer, take care Dare to thrive in your hundreds with a walker Not even blood, step, adopted, or foster But we're famalam for eternity Use your heart when it comes to birds and bees I'll be thinking of you when you earn degrees, 'cause I saw you learn to read Reinforced your "thank you, ma'ams," "yes sirs," and "pleases" I'm sure you yearn for freedom to roam, with ideas of your own So you test what we say, digest a new word everyday And you might not always get your way, or get to play, but Now will soon become yesterday Yea, yea, listen to what your parents say [A] lot of things you gotta see for yourself Touch fire and feel a welt, speak up if you're in need of help Keep worlds warm, preciate your origin And what was sacrificed to form your skin Make ripples like accordions, have your name known by historians 'Til you're born again, you were more than a friend [Chorus 2]
