Lyrics Not My Father's Son

When I was just a kid everything I did
Was to be like him under my skin
My father always thought if I was strong and fought
Not like some albatross
I'd begin
To fit in
Look at me powerless and holding my breath
Trying hard to repress what scared him to death
It was never easy to be his type of man
To breathe freely was not in his plan
And the best part of me is what he wouldn't see
I'm not my father's son
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of
With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Jobe
Still couldn't be the one to echo what he'd done
And mirror what was not in me
So I jumped in my dreams and found an escape
Maybe I went to extremes of leather and lace
But the world seemed brighter six inches off the ground and the air seemed lighter
I was profound
And I felt so proud
Just to live out loud
I'm not my father's son
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of
With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Jobe
Still couldn't be the one to echo what he'd done
And mirror what was not in me
The endless story of expectations swirling inside my mind wore me down
I came to a realization and I finally turned around to see
That I could just be me
I'm not my father's son
I'm not the image of what he dreamed of
With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Jobe
Still couldn't be the one to echo what he'd done
And mirror what was not in me
We're the same
Charlie boy you and me
Charlie from Northampton meet Simon from Clapton
Let's make boots
