Verse 1 I used to think providing Was enough to show I cared Working long hours, paying bills While half my heart wasn’t there Now I’m learning love looks different Sometimes it’s the little things Listening when she’s talking Helping carry what life brings Pre-Chorus I ain’t suddenly a hero Still got flaws I fight through But every morning I wake up Trying to do a little better than I used to Chorus I just wanna be a better man A little more patient, a little more kind A little more present in the moments I used to let slip by A better husband By loving her the way she deserves A better father By making sure my daughters know their worth A better friend By showing up when somebody’s hurting And a better version of myself By understanding I’m still learning Verse 2 Six daughters spread across this life Each carrying their own storms So I pick up the phone more often now Just checking in, staying warm Not because I got the answers Not because I got it all right Just wanting them to know their dad Still thinks about them every night Pre-Chorus And friendship ain’t about favors Or keeping some kind of score Sometimes people just need somebody To sit and listen more Chorus I just wanna be a better man A little more patient, a little more kind A little more present in the moments I used to let slip by A better husband By loving her the way she deserves A better father By making sure my daughters know their worth A better friend By showing up when somebody’s hurting And a better version of myself By understanding I’m still learning Bridge I spent too many years believing Strength meant never needing change Now I think real strength is knowing You ain’t got it figured out anyway Maybe nobody ever fully arrives Maybe we’re all just doing what we can Trying to leave this world a little better Than the way we first walked in Final Chorus Yeah, I wanna be a better man Not perfect, not beyond mistakes Just trying to live with more intention Every single day I wake A better husband A better father A better friend when life gets hard And maybe through all that trying I’ll finally become who I really am Outro No… I haven’t arrived yet. But I’m trying. And maybe that matters most.
