Daddy by Delano Johnson
How could you leave me?
I was your one and only-and I needed you to believe in me,
I’m a man now
But back then don’t you think I needed you to
Hold me -
Walk with me
Don’t you think it was some shit that you really need to show me -?
You would think the memories would fade- but in my head they just rotate 3 times more slowly-
But there is none of
You and I,
Made up images when I think of you,
But steal in my heart I know I needed you-
Funny how in my ear your name repeated dude,
- But your image never stayed the the same- tell they said WE LOOK THE SAME-well let me change my face because I don’t want to be him, not to be rude but / I hate that I look like you-
24 years later and I steal have to look to the mirror
And use my image just to look at you,
Can barely remember those 3 times I was took to visit you,
So I add them to my list of faded memories,
Make's me wonder I forget about YOU, do you forget about me,
Am I your fuckin son, and if so then why did you fuckin run
Was it my mama’s fault?
Did she chase you away, tell me when I was a baby did she take me away
I’m a dad now so I understand situations
But I hope you understand when I say this
I would never let anyone take me away from my seed
First I would go crazy like a racist
And I would only trade my life just to save his
So I changed my life around so I can be in his
Why you did not the same
What you don’t love me like I love him
I’ ant deserve the love he get
Are am I just a better man,
Wish you could see my life now for what it is
Progress to success I guess we ……………I LOVE YOU DAD…………………......
