I’ve got a few things I think you need to hear
These are days of violence, and governed by fear
When things seem their darkest, remember me here
And open your mind

You don’t have to accept the world as it is
But you gotta know, cos you’re living in it
You can change it all, if you’re dedicated
And if you’re kind

This is not about me
I’ve been down some roads, seen some things I can’t unsee
Those things aren’t for your eyes
So listen and be wise
To your father’s advice

Always look ahead to the joy in your life
Try not to be cruel, or avoid compromise
Under all that flesh is a heart that abides
So treat it right

Be your own best friend, cos you’re stuck with yourself
Don’t give up your judgment to anyone else
Set personal boundaries, and try not to tell
Too many lies

This is not about me
I’ve been down some roads, seen some things I can’t unsee
Those things aren’t for your eyes
So listen and be wise
To your father’s advice

Everybody out there may tell you to change
Times you gotta listen, sometimes you’re just strange
Trust yourself to know bout the difference between
And you’ll be alright

You can be anything that you wanna be
Taking a first step is the way to proceed
Don’t you be afraid, child, it ain’t easy
But you’ll survive

This is not about me
I’ve been down some roads, seen some things I can’t unsee
Those things aren’t for your eyes
So listen and be wise
To your father’s advice

This is not about me
I’ve been down some roads, know what makes you unhappy
This is not storytime
So listen and be wise
To your father’s advice
Father’s advice
Father’s advice
Father’s advice
