I guess it's human nature tuggin' at my sleeve
That gets me thinkin' too much 'bout what I'm 'sposed to be
I keep aiming higher like everybody else
Forgetting what I need to be is just to be myself
It's not like everybody's waiting to see if I'll go far
It's not like everybody's watching though sometimes I think they are
I don't have to change the world, I don't have to walk on water
All I have to be is my daughter's father
She's just like her mama when it comes to me
Couldn't fool her if I tried to
To her I'll always be nothing more than daddy
And when she says that word
It a wonderful reminder of why I'm on this earth
It's not like everybody's waiting to see if I'll go far
It's not like everybody's watching though sometimes I think they are
I don't have to change the world, I don't have to walk on water
All I have to be is my daughter's father
A man is often measured by what he does in life
It made mine worth living when I realized
It's not like everybody's waiting to see if I'll go far
It's not like everybody's watching though sometimes I think they are
I don't have to change the world, I don't have to walk on water
All I have to be is my daughter's father
Yeah, all I have to be is my daughter's father
