A Letter To My Father
The bible says to train up a child in the way it should go
but how can you train them if youre not there?
you think that its makin the situation better
but it really seems like you dont care
why when i call you, you dont answer?
like im not even your child.
and its not because i want something
its just that i havent spoken to you in a while
maybe it was the death of your parents,
that causes you to do what you do
you run away like a slave in hiding
idk, thats just my excuse for you.
i think ive seen you 3 times this year
and each time i had to be strong.
its not the money you dont give me
but its the lack of effort that makes you wrong
if it was up to my mother, i wouldnt love you.
trust me; i would hate you with a passion, my friend
but lucky for you i have a strong love,
thats life-love and will never end.
when you read this letter, will you decide to be there?
will you have a change of heart?
or have you always wanted to love me?
but just didnt know where to start?
all these questions and no answers
if you would talk to me then i would know
can you pick up the phone and call me?
because there's a million questions more!
i may act like i dont care,
just to soothe my mother's attitude
but the truth is, you can come back anytime.
i'll welcome you with gratitude
although everbody may not use it
we all have a heart
as for me, i guess i'll be waiting...
no matter when you decide to start.
