| I woke up this morning
|
| To find my father
|
| Standing on my doorstep
|
| Guess he was surprised
|
| When I told him I decided
|
| I was skipping Christmas this year
|
| He asked me why
|
| I told him why
|
| I don’t wanna tell a lie
|
| A — a — a
|
| I ain’t got no no time to play games this year
|
| Made a deadline to myself that I really wanna meet this year
|
| Told him I was gonna wrap it up by the end of this year
|
| I ain’t got no time to take off this year
|
| I ain’t got the time or the money I can spend
|
| I ain’t got enough for myself and it’s painful to say
|
| But I’d much rather sit and try to figure out
|
| I just wish I knew what I was about to do next year
|
| I have come way to far
|
| Can’t give up my dream
|
| If only I could take it back
|
| I would do the same
|
| What I should be doing with my life next year
|
| Not the guy to plan for the future but I kinda
|
| Wish I knew what I was about to do next year
|
| I don’t want your pity, I wanna be ready
|
| When the time comes
|
| I don’t want no gift, I just wanna love
|
| I just need to love myself again
|
| Wish it was easy to tell it like it is
|
| I don’t wanna let myself down
|
| Father, please forgive me
|
| Father, I’ve been bothered by it
|
| Father, understand me
|
| I don’t wanna live like this no more
|
| I don’t wanna let you down at all
|
| I don’t wanna let you down at all
|
| Know it’s hard to grasp what is really going on
|
| When’s the last time you had a project of your own
|
| When’s the last time you found yourself in a zone
|
| Zoning out to the sound of a drum like «uh»
|
| When’s the last time you had a passion so strong
|
| And a dream so big that it took away your breath
|
| Any time you let it go sorry for the quiz
|
| But I really wanna know
|
| Have you ever felt this way before
|
| Have you ever felt this way
|
| If you haven’t than there isn’t any point in me trying
|
| To explain what I’m trying to accomplish
|
| Only thing I know is it’s me against the world
|
| It’s all you need to know
|
| When’s the last time anybody doubted you
|
| When’s the last time you did something for the first time
|
| When’s the last time it was you against the odds
|
| And it’s one in a million and the feeling of a stepback
|
| Makes you get that, but you put that
|
| Anger get to use
|
| Refusing to lose it
|
| Excuse what I’ve done
|
| Cus I know I was your son
|
| Before it started and you loved me for the one that I was
|
| Father, please forgive me
|
| Father, I’ve been bothered by it
|
| Father, understand me
|
| I don’t wanna live like this no more
|
| I don’t wanna let you down at all
|
| I don’t wanna let you down at all
|
| You given me so much
|
| You provided me a home
|
| But you don’t understand
|
| What is really going on
|
| You so sick and tired
|
| Of me working on a tune
|
| Telling you it’s all gonna
|
| Add up pretty soon
|
| Leaving you to ask
|
| Are you ever moving on
|
| When you gonna realize
|
| That the energy is gone
|
| Time that you move on
|
| Time to get a job
|
| Why do you believe
|
| That you gonna prove me wrong
|
| I have come way to far
|
| Can’t give up my dream
|
| If only I could take it back
|
| I would do the same
|
| I have come way to far
|
| Can’t give up my dream
|
| If only I could make it right
|
| What am I to do |
