Fences
Magic Bronson Lyrics

this is the time
Now is the moment we should pay tribute to those who have supported us through life's difficulties.

that I would like to acknowledge
I want to recognize their efforts and sacrifices.

all of those in our lives
Everyone who has played a vital role in our lives.

if we could take a moment
Let's pause for a moment to appreciate them.

and just live up to it
We should try to live up to the high standards set by these people.

own it
Take responsibility for our lives.

that would be just fine
This would be sufficient acknowledgement for their contributions.

because they make these sacrifices
These people have made significant sacrifices for us.

just to get us through the night
Their sacrifices were made to help us get through difficult times.

and all of us sorted
They helped to sort out our problems and challenges.

it's like who turned off the lights
It seems as though everything has fallen apart and become dark.

and I look up to my mother
My mother is the person I turn to for comfort.

and a tear comes to her eye
My mother is emotional because of the love she feels for me.

but she will be alright
Despite her emotions, she knows everything will be okay.

good to know
It's important to realize.

just won't make it
Merely realizing isn't sufficient by itself.

kid you gotta take it
We must take responsibility and act.

into your own hands
We must take control of our lives.

oh my gosh
I'm realizing something important.

it's making sense
The message is becoming clear.

with all this time we're hangin round
We've been idle for too long.

sittin on the fences
We're indecisive and not taking action.

so take a look around you
Observe the people who have helped and guided you.

these people founded you
They have played an essential role in shaping who you are.

from a conversation
Even a single conversation can lead to a significant impact in your life.

and how 'bout a holler
Let's give them a shoutout for their contributions.

for all of the adults
Praise those who are mature enough to handle our shortcomings without frustration.

who don't get bothered
They are patient and understanding even in difficult circumstances.

when you keep them waiting
They are tolerant and wait for us even if we're late.

what about that 7:00 AM call
Imagine a scenario where you need them to be there for you at 7 AM.

can you come get me at this place
They step in to help even in uncomfortable situations or places.

and there's a hole in the rug
Their impact in our lives is so significant that it leaves a mark.

from all the steps that you've been pacing
Their actions and sacrifices can be seen and felt everywhere.

and I look up to my father
My father is my support and guide.

and I thank him for his patience
I'm grateful for his understanding and calmness during tough situations.

I finally say it
I've come to the realization.

I think we'll make it
We'll overcome our struggles and succeed.

we finally made it
All the hard work and support from our loved ones have finally paid off.

good to know
It's a reassuring thought.

just doesn't make it
Merely knowing isn't enough.

kid you gotta take it
We should take the initiative.

into your own hands
We must take control and act.

with all the time we're hangin round
Our idle time is wasted time.

sittin on the fences
Our indecision is preventing us from moving forward.

the fences
The fences represent the obstacles we need to cross to reach our goals.
