FOR MY FATHER

Folder: 
LOVED ONES

THIS IS FOR THE ONE THAT RAISED ME FROM A BOY TO A MAN

AND ONLY AFTER YOUR GONE DO I FINALLY UNDERSTAND

DAMN, THIS IS FUCKED UP, THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT

I SAY A PRAYER FOR YOU POPPI EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE

YOU WERE MORE THEN MY FATHER YOU WERE MY FRIEND

I WOULD GIVE UP EVERYTHING I'LL EVER BE TO SEE YOU AGAIN

BUT STILL I SMILE BECAUSE I KNOW YOUR SURROUNDED BY OUR PEOPLE

STILL THERE WAS NEVER A MAN THAT LIVED THAT COULD BE YOUR EQUAL

WHAT YOU HAD FOR THIS WORLD, I'LL MAKE SURE THEY ALL WILL SEE

AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FOREVER BECAUSE YOU LIVE ON THROUGH ME

I'M YOUR SEED, I'M YOUR SON; SHIT I'M JUST LIKE YOU

WHEN EVERYBODY ELSE WAS WONDERING WHY,I ALREADY KNEW

IT'S YOUR MEMORY THAT LIFTED ME THE MANY TIMES THAT I FELL

AND IF YOU HAVE NOT MADE IT TO HEAVEN, THEN I'M GOING TO HELL

DAMN, I REALLY MISS YOU, I CAN'T LIE

I'M NOT EVEN SCARED OF THE MOMENT I DIE

IF DEATH BRINGS TOGETHER, THEN THAT'S A DOOR THAT I'LL GO THROUGH

I MAY BE MAD ABOUOT HOW YOU DIED, BUT YOUR MY FATHER AND I LOVE YOU

                    YOU MY FATHER

                    THE REALIST MAN

                    I EVER KNEW

                    IN MY LIFE
