I’m Not My Father’s Son - Billy Porter[00:00:00]

Composer：Cyndi Laupe[00:00:08]

When I was just a kid[00:00:16]

Everything I did was to be like him[00:00:24]

Under my skin[00:00:35]

My father always thought[00:00:43]

If I was strong and fought[00:00:50]

Not like some albatross I'd begin[00:00:57]

To fit in[00:01:09]

Look at me powerless and holding my breath[00:01:19]

Trying hard to repress what scared him to death[00:01:25]

It was never easy to be his type of man[00:01:32]

To breathe freely was not in his plan[00:01:39]

And the best part of me[00:01:46]

Is what he wouldn't see[00:01:52]

I'm not my father's son[00:01:59]

I'm not the image of what he dreamed of[00:02:06]

With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Job[00:02:13]

Still couldn't be the one[00:02:20]

To echo what he'd done[00:02:27]

And mirror what was not in me[00:02:34]

So I jumped in my dreams and found an escape[00:02:45]

Maybe I went to extremes of leather and lace[00:02:51]

But the world seemed brighter six inches off the ground[00:02:58]

And the air seemed lighter[00:03:05]

I was profound and I felt so proud[00:03:09]

Just to live out loud[00:03:19]

I'm not my father's son no[00:03:25]

I'm not the image of what he dreamed of[00:03:32]

With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Job[00:03:39]

Still couldn't be the one[00:03:46]

To echo what he'd done[00:03:53]

And mirror what was not in me[00:04:00]

Oh[00:04:09]

The endless story of expectations swirling[00:04:12]

Inside my mind[00:04:19]

Wore me down[00:04:23]

I came to a realization and I finally turned around[00:04:26]

To see[00:04:36]

That I could just be me[00:04:46]

I'm not my father's son[00:05:01]

I'm not the image of what he dreamed of[00:05:08]

With the strength of Sparta and the patience of Job[00:05:15]

Still couldn't be the one[00:05:23]

To echo what he'd done[00:05:30]

And mirror what was not in me[00:05:37]

Oh[00:05:53]

Hm[00:05:59]
