| Dear Dad, why’d you have to go so soon?
|
| It feels like I never really got to know you
|
| You lost track of your life when your pops passed
|
| Tryna drink away your problems through a shot glass
|
| I just hope that I don’t fall into the same path
|
| I’ve had addictive personality since way back
|
| It’s in our blood some times I really hate that
|
| But we’re alike in other ways I wouldn’t change that
|
| You loved work you put that over everything
|
| You even put it and liquor over a wedding ring
|
| They say you never know what you had 'til it’s gone
|
| That’s why I’m writing you this song
|
| I’ve been stressing and second guessing decisions
|
| Learning lessons and growing up gaining wisdom
|
| You’re out the picture this never was in my vision
|
| You helped me buy my equipment
|
| You shared my songs and you listened
|
| When I was younger heard arguing in the kitchen
|
| Moving around a lot houses always switching
|
| As I got older began to see the addiction
|
| Mom tried stay to calm couldn’t stick with it
|
| I don’t blame her but sometimes I blame myself
|
| Like there was someway or somehow I could of helped like damn
|
| Maybe if I called the ambulance a little faster
|
| We wouldn’t be in this disaster
|
| Instead of staring at the blood on the walls like it’s plaster
|
| But I guess it doesn’t matter
|
| Grandma’s crying in the arms of the pastor
|
| Not all stories get a happy ever after
|
| Me and my brother stuck together that’s for life too
|
| Mama found new love met a nice dude
|
| Things sucked but I always had to fight thru
|
| How’s the weather in heaven? |
| Hope it’s a nice view
|
| Nowadays everything ain’t the same
|
| A lot of problems are bottled up in my brain
|
| I never thought that I would have to feel this way
|
| But I can’t help it, I’m breaking down every day
|
| I don’t wanna get upset I don’t think I should regret
|
| Holding on to what is left hope your happy looking down
|
| I just wanna make u proud even tho your not around
|
| I know you’ll always be there I know that you’ll always care
|
| So I love you and I swear even though we weren’t prepared
|
| Maybe this was meant to be this is what you meant to me
|
| I won’t forget the memories
|
| I won’t forget the memories
|
| Rest in peace yeah |
