What Do We Teach Them

Before the rules…
Before the fear…
There were questions…
Trusting us…

Verse 1
They come into the world with open hands…
Looking for reflection…
They learn what safety feels like…
From how we face our imperfections…

They don’t learn kindness from words alone…
They learn it when we pause…
When we listen…
When we choose what is right…
Over being blind…

Pre-Chorus
They’re learning who they are…
By watching who we become…

Chorus
What do we teach them…
When we choose to stay present?
What do we teach them…
When care becomes the truth?

What do we teach them…
When mistakes become the way we grow?
What do we teach them…
When we change for a better future?

Verse 2
They watch us question old stories…
Instead of passing them down…
They see us unlearn what harms us…
And call that strength, not loss…

They learn that difference isn’t danger…
That listening is a form of courage…
That no one needs to lose…
For someone else to have…

Pre-Chorus 2
They don’t need perfect guides…
They need honest ones…

Chorus (fuller)
What do we teach them…
When we choose connection?
What do we teach them…
When we protect what’s fragile?

What do we teach them…
When we care beyond ourselves?
What do we teach them…
When we grow?

Bridge
They are not waiting for answers…
They are watching how we live…

Outro
Before the future…
Before the name…
There are children…
Learning from us…
