The Forgotten Fathers Clothes

The shoes that has been worn down by the oppression of a mother and son
Now fits the son perfectly with the understanding of the word "perfect".
Tying his shoes he realizes that his father is not
While he struggles in his life as a father to become a better one.

The pants that has been worn down by the oppression of a mother and son
Now fits the son perfectly with the understanding of the word "labor".
Zipping the pants he realizes that his father worked life the best he could
While he works his own with the mistakes that can't be undone.

The shirt that has been worn down by the oppression of a mother and son 
Now fits the son perfectly with the understanding of the word "happiness"
Buttoning up the shirt he realizes his father only seeks his own.
Now in finding his ,he realizes the expectation of everyone.

The hat that has been worn down by the oppression of a mother and son
Now fits the son perfectly with the understanding of the word "greater" 
Putting on the hat he realizes that no father wants their son to be like them
As he so desperately tries to lift his child to the sun.
