Go Away, Little Boy

by Person needing assistance - Aquarius

Little boy,
Don't make me remember. . .

that you were my little boy,
and it's time to send you on your way,
You got to say goodbye,
without asking me why.

I gotta make a man out of you,
or nothing will become of you.

Go away little boy,
there is nothing you can do.

Go away little boy,
I want to see you standing tall,
not facing a brick wall,
You got to be a man,
or be nothing. . .
at all.

Go away little boy,
Your dreams will be,
it is time for you to see,
the world, in the palm of your hand,
and experience being free,
you got to, become a man,
I want to see you standing tall,
not facing a blank wall.
Go away little boy,
or become nothing. . .
at all.

Go away little boy,
I'll watch your fading silhouette,
something I won't ever forget,
But I can't live on regrets,
seeing you standing against the wall.
Go away little boy,
or be nothing, 
at all. . .
