Verse 1

Out where the dust meets the morning sun

There’s a life we’re learning one day at a time

Julia’s laughing, Stacy’s on the run

Lauren’s smile keeps this whole world in line

We traded city lights for a front porch glow

For a sky full of stars and a place to grow

Verse 2

There’s eggs in the basket, boots by the door

Milk in the bucket from a long sunrise

We ain’t chasing things we can’t afford

Just living truth in a simple life

I don’t stand over every step they take

’Cause I know that’s not how strong hearts are made

Chorus

I give ‘em room to fall, room to fly

Room to wipe the tears from their own eyes

I don’t point a finger every time they’re wrong

I just stand beside ‘em, steady and strong

I learned the hard way what not to do

Now I’m building something honest and true

Out here on this land, love runs deep

I give ‘em room… and they give it back to me

Verse 3

My old man’s voice still echoes loud

Every little flaw, every misstep shown

But breaking a spirit don’t make it proud

It just leaves a heart out there alone

So I hold my tongue, and I let ‘em try

Watch their confidence come alive

Verse 4

Lauren in white, standing next to me

Two little hands I’ll soon call mine

Not by blood, but by family

Signed in love and sealed in time

Julia, Stacy, I hope you see

You’ve already changed the man in me

Chorus

I give ‘em room to fall, room to fly

Room to wipe the tears from their own eyes

I don’t point a finger every time they’re wrong

I just stand beside ‘em, steady and strong

I learned the hard way what not to do

Now I’m building something honest and true

Out here on this land, love runs deep

I give ‘em room… and they give it back to me

Bridge

From city streets to open plains

We found ourselves in hard-earned days

With every fence and every chore

This family’s becoming something more

Final Chorus

Yeah, we’ve got room to fall, room to rise

Room to see the world through open eyes

With dirt on our hands and love in our name
