Thank You (2.0)
Knightofbalance: As I was listening to Gold, I was hit by a truck from this idea. If "Answer To Me" is Taiyang's version of "I Burn" then this would be his answer to "Gold"
Disclaimer: If I owned RWBY, I would have had Jeff make this so it could be an actual song and you know, a good one.

Sleep tight, my precious treasures
Everything will be alright
I will bear any pain and any blow
so you will never know my plight
Since the day you entered my life
Things have never been the same
When faced with fight or flight
I shall stand and fight with my flame!
Look at what you have done for me
Letting me wake with such glee
I could never put into words
The joy that has occured
How could I ever say-
Thank you.
For so long I did grieve
wallowing in sorrow and misery
We were all so happy
but life was never a fantasy
But even with all of this
You grew up before my eyes
So I cannot wallow anymore
Lest you face my demise.
Though I could not always stand
Stricken down by life's cruel hand
You were there, giving strength
And love always at arm's length
How could I ever say-
Thank you.
Now you've both grown so much
Beyond even my wildest dreams
And though I must say goodbye
I know you two will make the best team!
But just know one last thing
before you leave me behind
Should you ever fall far away
Know you will always shine!
How can I possibly,
(Never in my life!)
ever put into words,
(How proud I am of you!)
and say what you have done for me
(Giving me strength!)
just by being here?
How could I ever say-
What you have given me?
How could I say-
Where you have lead me?
How could I say-
For everything
Thank you.
