They’re asking for comparisons But a father can’t compare his sons And they’ll call until the morning sun But he’ll protect every one of them Like a building stands on tens of tons Not on one brick but the sum of them As an artist’s craft is never done Discarding not a single one The works build up the firm foundation A mental shelter, found salvation Rich and poor, they form a nation A state of mind, the mind’s creation So when they ask “will you stop your run?” I’ll let them know I’ve just begun Cause they’re asking for comparisons But a father won’t compare his sons
