For our every step forward
You take a step back
Watching us
Guiding us along the way
But you try to keep us at bay
Teaching can only go so far
And there's always that bar
Eventually you have to let go
But you're there
Even when your not
I know what you are
Mom and Dad, parents or guardians
Thank you
