Another Day
• Written by MrMatrix
[Hook]
One song, another day,
My daughter gettin’ older.
One song, another day,
My son is gettin’ bolder.
One song, another day,
My heart keeps gettin’ colder.
One song, another day,
More miles on a lonely road.
One song, another day,
Still stayin’ away from home.
[Verse 1 – Daughter]
Still remember the day my daughter was born,
Picked up the phone, called everyone back home.
Thought I’d be there for every little thing,
Didn’t know what chasin’ dreams would bring.
I remember her sayin’, “I got my boots on,”
“Let’s go outside, catch leaves on the lawn.”
Now that moment just live in my head,
‘Cause I chose the road instead.
Years don’t wait, they just pass you by,
You don’t see it happen, you just blink your eyes.
One minute she reachin’ up holdin’ your hand,
Next minute she don’t really need you like that.
I missed birthdays, I missed nights,
Missed the moments that build a life.
Told myself I’d make it all make sense,
But I traded time for accomplishments.

One song, another day,

One song, another day,
My heart keeps gettin’ colder.
One song, another day,
More miles on a lonely road.
One song, another day,
Still stayin’ away from home.
[Verse 2 – Son]
Still remember the day my son was born,
That feelin’ hit deep like I finally belonged.
Said I’d never be the one that disappear,
Now I hear my own words echo in my ears.
Used to fall asleep layin’ on my chest,
Now I don’t even know what he remembers best.
Tryna be a man while I’m gone too long,
And I’m not there to show him right from wrong.
I told myself it’s all for them,
But that don’t matter if I’m missin’ them.
He used to reach for me, now he stand on his own,
And I’m out here chasin’ dreams instead of comin’ home.
Every mile I drive feel heavier now,
Every win feel hollow, I don’t know how.
‘Cause what’s success if they ain’t there to see?
What’s a legacy if they don’t remember me?

One song, another day,
Still stayin’ away from home…
