Read the complete MY BOY Lyrics by Jon Bellion along with song credits, release information and other details about the song.

[Chorus]
Stay young
Stay small, my boy
Fit inside these arms forever, cause the world’s not all it’s cracked up to
Be (Be)
I sigh
I cry, my boy
Soon you’ll see the world is not this room and I can’t keep you from the pain that you’ll have to
See (See)

[Verse 1]
Lord, it’s tough to hold my son in the moment

I need to keep him safe, tell me which direction the world is going
I feel the same for my lack of faith when you walk the ocean
Eve bit the apple, my faith is weak and my trust is broken
There’ s things that I can’t keep him from
Like the loneliness you feel in the realizations of growing up
Like a best friend at his mother’s bedside dying from leukemia
Like a coach about to die asking you why he’s gotta leave his son
I hate the weakness of (??) sins of past
I hate the weakness of giving up what I used to have
I hate the weakness of showing my son what makes me sad
He said a present father is worth way more than a perfect dad

[Chorus]
Stay young
Stay small, my boy
Fit inside these arms forever, cause the world’s not all it’s cracked up to
Be (Be)
I sigh
I cry, my boy
Soon you’ll see the world is not this room and I can’t keep you from the pain that you’ll have to
See (See)
Stay young
