I'm a fool to be kind to you：

It's not what the men in your life tend to do

Must be so strange finding someone who only accepts you

Rejection's a lesson you've had

You're lost in the anger you feel for your dad

But oh how he loves you

There's no doubt

With all his high hopes for you

I could push you away

I could say

I don't want you no more

I could drive you right into the floor

And tell you you're useless

Get used to it lady

But I'm big in believing that baby you're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success it's a mood that you choose

With every step

I want to grow old with you

To hold your old hand and look back on our youth

I will be strong

Times I might not

I'm only human

I could push you away

With every step

So be free like a bumble bee

Spread wings like a bird

Squawk like a peacock and

Let your voice be heard it's

OK I have no lock key or a cage

You've got to want to stay

I won't push you away

I won't say

I don't want you no more

I won't drive you right into the floor

But I'll tell you you're beautiful

Get on with it lady

Coz I'm big in believing that baby you're bigger than that

It's respect for yourself that you lack

And success it's a mood that you choose

With every step

So take a step

It's just step by step
