Songs for my son — ten lessons on becoming a man.

Heat and pressure make steel. These ten songs are the values I want my son to carry: responsibility, courage, integrity, protecting the vulnerable, self-discipline, sacrifice, pursuing meaning, humility, wisdom, and choosing good companions.

This album is the inheritance I leave him — not money, but wisdom. Not answers, but questions worth asking. Not a destination, but a map for the journey.

You’re ten now. You won’t understand all of this yet. But one day, when life gets heavy and the easy road calls, maybe you’ll remember: this is your watch.
