My Big Son

LL77 feat. Ella

The Story Behind the Song

"My Big Son" is more than just a track; it is a deeply personal musical letter. Written as a tribute to my son, the song captures the complex emotions of parenthood—the pride, the unconditional love, and the realization of how fast time passes.

Discovering the talented singer Ella brought a unique dimension to this project. Her voice conveys the innocence and the emotional depth that this story needed. We decided to release three distinct versions of the track to reflect the different stages and emotions of this journey: the intimacy of the piano, the reflection of the ambient mix, and the celebration of life in the trance mix.

Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
I saw you rise with the morning light,
Small hands reaching for the sky.
Every dream you held inside
Grew wings that carried you so high.

[PRE-CHORUS]
And now the time has come,
You’re standing on your own—
A world of endless roads
Calling you to roam.

[CHORUS]
My big son, you’re shining like the sun,
Running to the future you’ve become.
Every step you take,
Every move you make,
Is a miracle that’s only just begun.

My big son—look how far you’ve come,
A rising star that nothing can outrun.
We’re proud of who you are,
You’ve travelled oh so far—
My big son… you’ve only just begun.

[VERSE 2]
I watched you grow through storm and fire,
Your heart steady with desire.
Now you're ready, strong and free,
Living out your destiny.

[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Life opens like a door,
You've never been so sure—
And everything ahead
Is what you're reaching for.

[CHORUS]
My big son, you’re shining like the sun,
Running to the future you’ve become.
Every step you take,
Every move you make,
Is a miracle that’s only just begun.

My big son—look how far you’ve come,
A rising star that nothing can outrun.
We’re proud of who you are,
You’ve travelled oh so far—
My big son… you’ve only just begun.

[BRIDGE]
Go on and fly,
We’ll be right here behind you.
Raise your voice high—
Let the whole world find you.
You’re the light we always knew,
Now it burns so bright in you…

[FINAL CHORUS]
My big son, you’re shining like the sun,
Your journey to the stars has just begun.
We celebrate your name,
Your fire and your flame—
My big son… forever you’ll be the one.
