[Verse 1]
Wake up, son of mine
Momma got somethin' to tell you
Changes come
Life will have its way
With your pride, son
Take it like a man
Hang on, son of mine
A storm is blowing up your horizon

[Chorus]
Changes come
Keep your dignity
Take the high road
Take it like a man

[Verse 2]
Listen up, son of mine
Momma got somethin' to tell you
All about growin' pains
Life will pound away
Where the light don't shine, son
Take it like a man
Suck it up, son of mine
Thunder blowing up your horizon
[Chorus]
Changes come (Changes come)
Keep your dignity (Keep your dignity)
Take the high road (Take the high road, woah)
Take it like a man (Take it like a man)

[Post-Chorus]
Momma said like the rain (This, too, shall pass)
Like a kidney stone (This, too, shall pass)
It's just a broken heart, son
This pain will pass away
