about

I know this isn't the kind of advice most parents give their kids, but it has worked out really well for me. Then again, I've been lucky. So far.

The assignment: “We’ve written a song for a child, now write a song with a message TO your child. *if you don’t have a child, write the message you want to give to a future child, or that you wish a parent had given you."

lyrics

v1:
Do I have to be the one you go to for advice?
I'm aware of all my failures, you don't have to tell me twice
So I shared a few things about kindness & respect
About generosity, I don't think there's too much left
But there's one more thing I know to be true

ch:
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to carry you through your darkest days
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to help you find your way

v2:
Do you remember when I told you about Jesus?
I don't think we see ourselves the same way he sees us
You've got a heart, a mind, and a soul
You've got a spirit no one can control
But there's one more thing I know to be true

ch:
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to carry you through your darkest days
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to help you find your way

-- lame guitar solo --

ch:
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to carry you through your darkest days
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
---
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to carry you through your darkest days
Do what you love and maybe it will be enough
to help you find your way
to help you find your way
to help you find your way
