21 From a Distance

[Verse 1]
Twenty-one candles on a cake I can’t see
But I’m raising up a glass like you’re right here with me
Yeah
The miles in between
They’re a little too loud
Still I’m talking to the sky like you’re lost in the crowd
[Chorus]
Kyle
It’s your 21st
And I’m cheering from a distance
Every step you take
I’m in your corner
I’m your witness
May your road run bright
Every dream burn higher
All the success you desire
Love always
Dad
That fire
[Verse 2]
I still see you in the doorway
Shoes two sizes wide
Laughing at the world with that fearless smile
Now you’re grown
On your own
Chasing your next start
But you’re never really gone
You’re carved in my heart
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
From the first little steps on the living room floor
To the keys in your hand
Now you’re out the front door
If you stumble
If you fall
Just remember this line
You got your name
You got my love
You’ll be just fine
[Chorus]

rock, Energetic rock-hop hybrid with crunchy guitars over a bouncy, head-nod groove. Verses sit in a storytelling pocket with dry, upfront male vocals; chorus hits wide with gang shouts, octave guitars, and big tom fills. Short breakdown bridge with filtered drums before the final chorus lifts with harmonies and a sing-along feel., bright
