Description
Brock wrote this song because he was working at a steel mill for three years, and he felt like that was the first time his father saw him. It was like he had to be like his dad to get along with him. So, this song is about the frustrating relationships that fathers and sons have from the son's perspective.
Lyrics
It’s breaking me open, but I won’t make a sound. I’ll show you I can do this and I’ll make you proud. All this sweat and blood; we’re just having fun. Maybe now you won’t be afraid to call me yours, to call me your son You say these apron strings need cut. That I should keep my mouth shut. You think I’m soft and simple. You say I’m weak. Ahh, ahh, ahh. But, while I’ve been looking up, you’ve been looking down. You say the only way we’ll get along is when I fix what’s been wrong. It’s breaking me open, but I won’t make a sound. I’ll show you I can do this and I’ll make you proud. All this sweat and blood; we’re just having fun. Maybe now you won’t be afraid to call me yours, to call me your son. And, I‘ll take hard hits. I’ll work third trick. This dust and dirt keeps rising, but I breathe it in. Ahh, ahh, ahh. The only time you find me is when I act like you. I’ve had my handshakes, I’ve had my smiles, earned accolades, survived your trials. It’s breaking me open, but I won’t make a sound. I’ll show you I can do this and I’ll make you proud. All this sweat and blood; we’re just having fun. Maybe now you won’t be afraid to call me yours, to call me your son
