Better Man in Better Times

[Verse]
Daddy worked the fields from dawn till dusk,
Covered in sweat and Georgia dust,
He made a life with calloused hands,
In simpler days on sacred lands.
[Verse 2]
Momma's stew on a Sunday night,
Faded pictures by the firelight,
A porch swing love under the stars,
They never needed more than what was ours.
[Chorus]
Father was a better man than me,
He lived in times I’ll never see,
When the world was kinda small and kind,
Oh, how I wish I could rewind.
[Verse 3]
These days I punch in, nine to five,
Chasing dreams just to survive,
There's no land left untouched and free,
Daddy's world is a memory.
[Verse 4]
Wall Street news and urban clatter,
Lost the things that truly matter,
Digital talks in a noisy room,
Can't compare to the old front porch gloom.
[Chorus]
Father was a better man than me,
He lived in times I’ll never see,
When the world was kinda small and kind,
Oh, how I wish I could rewind.
