Wassup pops, you look a little outta touch
As if somebody punched you in the guts of somethin’ *
You lookin’ weak and weary as if I speak *
But nobody there to reach I just got a little speech can you hear me?
I wonder if you reminisce at times bout the past
About the things you put us through remember tha past?
The family you-left-for gambling all of the cash
And left me on my ass in a flat full of rats
So I just wanna let you know-tha shit that you done did *
Only made us even stronger, without-you in the pic’
My mother and tha bond is somethin’ you’ll never get
So be quiet-and let me get this off of my chest
I ain’t tryna get you back-or even be the kid who hate
I’m over the fact you made us cry-like-everyday
I’m over the fact I never had a dad to praise *
Just an alcoholic man who lost it all in a blaze

.See all I wanted was a father to hold me
.And come along when he knows that I’m lonely
.And be tha man that I need when I’m scared *
On my knees wit’ a prayer that my daddy never taught me
So how you feelin’ bout it all now, I know you all down
.I know you really want it back that it’s gone now
.I know you missin’ the missus the little kids and the kisses *
.The pleasure to hold em-and tell em-but they’ve grown now
.You were the reason-we done sold it all
And the love that we had you done broke it off
Wit’ tha sip of the liquor-what were you hopin’ for *
For me to love you while-you lay on the Soufa gone?
.But I just needed you to know that I’m strong *
And I’m holdin’-on to somethin’ you ain’t given-me and moms
Cuz all you’ve ever given us is harm
You’ve never did a job in your life ‘cept robbin’ tha calm
.And you regret it now cuz look-who-the one alone
.I’ve never let it out, but I’m lettin’ it go
.And I’m a better child I’m a be a better grown *
I’m a be a daddy so my kiddies never get alone
..And that’s the way that it is So was it really-that hard-to carry the weight of the kids *
When you was screamin’ at my mother-for somethin’ she never did
Did you ever think for one second-this could be it?
I guess not cuz pops you’re not pop no more
You’re not popular you just popped the core
You not got no more the props out tha door
You lost! And ^now-you all alone lock tha door

.See all I wanted was a father to hold me
.And come along when he knows that I’m lonely
.And be tha man that I need when I’m scared *
On my knees wit’ a prayer that my daddy never taught me
Bridge
.What did I do this deserve this aching
.Now everybody wanna know why I’m shaken
.And tryna find but a reason to make it *
I’m left all alone in the cold and I’m brakin’ apart!
And I don’t wanna start
I can feel it in my heart, I’m so torn apart “But I’m over you”
I said it before, please change for me
Don’t do this dad you gotta family
And don’t drink that shit come on stand wit’ me
Yo’ we could do it together-and we can handle this
And you promised, dad you done swore to me
That you would change ya ways but it was all to be
Another lie-another look in the eye and cheat
You should have left it, when you had the chance to leave *
And now it’s all too late, just look at you face
You done had it wit’ this planet-and you walkin’ away
Do you fear dyin’ alone your coffin-awaits
Don’t worry-when you go I’ll be givin’ a prayer
Cuz it’s all good father, you no good father
It could have been better-but if only you’d brothered If only you were smarter-and willin’ to do it harder *
But the bottle over family-is all you really thought of
