.... Couldn't say for certain who the father was
But I have known him since he was A pup
And I'm gonna raise him up
If you never knew your daddy
Like I never knew mine
It feels like everybody knows
You're fatherless
This boy may not be blood of my blood
But I'm gonna raise him up
I'll provide for him
Walk beside of him
I am strong enough
Cause it's time he knew
What A son can do
With A father's love
He could change the world
You only have to look at joseph
A couple thousand years ago
He held A newborn baby he named jesus
He said "He may not be blood of by blood
Still I'm gonna raise him up
I will provide for him
Walk beside of him
I am strong enough
I will show him too
What A son can do
With A father's love
And he will change the world.
33 years later
When the son was in his grave
Broken and abandoned
By A world he came to save
His real dad said
"He's mine,
Blood of my blood
And I'm gonna raise him up"
I'll provide for you
Walk beside of you
I am strong enough
I have seen from you
What A son can do
With A father's love
One man changed the world and he can change your world
But you gotta raise him up
Raise him up
When I first met his mama, she was just 19 .... Couldn't say for certain who the father was But I have known him since he was A pup And I'm gonna raise him up If you never knew your daddy Like I never knew mine It feels like everybody knows You're fatherless This boy may not be blood of my blood But I'm gonna raise him up I'll provide for him Walk beside of him I am strong enough Cause it's time he knew What A son can do With A father's love He could change the world You only have to look at joseph A couple thousand years ago He held A newborn baby he named jesus He said "He may not be blood of by blood Still I'm gonna raise him up I will provide for him Walk beside of him I am strong enough I will show him too What A son can do With A father's love And he will change the world. 33 years later When the son was in his grave Broken and abandoned By A world he came to save His real dad said "He's mine, Blood of my blood And I'm gonna raise him up" I'll provide for you Walk beside of you I am strong enough I have seen from you What A son can do With A father's love One man changed the world and he can change your world But you gotta raise him up Raise him up Explain Request ×
