hold your ground

hold your ground firm:
a life lesson has to be learned:

teen's will tell a story with a twist and a turn:
one day the truth they will learn:

they know they haven't been caught or discovered:
when you confront them,there story always well covered:

hold your ground as a father, because you know your right:
the teen, they act so tough, ready to go toe to toe in a fight:

these teens there story has a new twist and a turn:
one day life, they will learn:

they say they will go see a movie, but you know they go to another place:
talking,arguing with a teen,seems like a waste:

you hope one day they will have a child who will torture them the same:
then they will feel the shame:

as a father hold your ground:
respect must be found:

the teen.they are wrong:
they think they are as invinsible,as king kong:

hold your ground, you are the foundation, where they belong:
hold your ground, they will realize,one day,they are wrong:
