My Son ALEX 2

Lyrics

In the fall of 2010, under autumn’s golden glow,
I found your mother, Melissa, and love began to grow.
Two souls intertwined, inseparable, no doubt,
In a world of chaos, it was you that we were about.

But life wasn’t easy, and the road was tough,
You were just a boy, but you had the heart of a lion, so rough.
Falling through the cracks, lost in the storm,
But I saw a spark in you, a fire to transform.

Oh, Alex, my son, though not by blood,
You are my heart, my pride, my love.
Through struggles and triumphs, we’ve walked hand in hand,
In this journey of life, together we stand.
Blood doesn’t make family, it’s love that we share,
With every challenge we faced, I was always there.

Remember those days when you were down on your luck?
Five classes slipping, but we never gave up.
I might’ve seemed harsh; I put my foot in your ass,
But I wanted a warrior, not just a boy who would pass.
I aimed for your spirit, your strength to ignite,
No phones or computers, just books and your will to fight.

You’d waste time watching porn, lost in a screen,
But I knew deep inside you could be more than you seemed.
From failing to honor roll, you rose like the dawn,
With perfect attendance, you showed you could run.

Oh, Alex, my son, though not by blood,
You are my heart, my pride, my love.
Through struggles and triumphs, we’ve walked hand in hand,
In this journey of life, together we stand.
Blood doesn’t make family, it’s love that we share,
With every challenge we faced, I was always there.

I know I was tough, but I did it for you,
To teach you resilience, to make you break through.
Your success and your happiness were all that I sought,
In this life’s crazy game, it’s the battles you fought.

From that awkward boy, you grew into a man,
With Chelsea by your side, together you stand.
In the blue grass of Kentucky, where vows were exchanged,
We witnessed your love, as your world rearranged.
Through laughter and tears, you found your own way,
And I couldn't be prouder of the choices you make.

Oh, Alex, my son, though not by blood,
You are my heart, my pride, my love.
Through struggles and triumphs, we’ve walked hand in hand,
In this journey of life, together we stand.
Blood doesn’t make family, it’s love that we share,
With every challenge we faced, I was always there.

And now with little Sophia, your headstrong delight,
You battle the world, bringing joy to our nights.
As I watch you embrace all the roles you now play,
I see the man you’ve become, and it takes my breath away.

Oh, Alex, my son, though not by blood,
You are my heart, my pride, my love.
Through struggles and triumphs, we’ve walked hand in hand,
In this journey of life, together we stand.
Blood doesn't make family and loves what is had, when times where hard I always tried to be there
