Change

Fist clenched it’s hard to write I wanna swing with all my might And fill this room with bloody rain And let someone else feel my pain Try and get a grip try an relax And get my mind back on track Write it down express emotion My pen can be my anger potion Why’d you hurt me? Why’d you lie? Why’d you leave me dad? Why’d you die? There’s all these questions I wanna ask Why’d I have to grow up so fast? And be a man while still a boy? And use guns and women as my play toys? You were supposed to be there supposed to guide me But instead I taught myself an grew up wildly Mom was busy taking care of us But government assistance wasn’t enough So I went out an did my dirt Sold coke and weed as fulltime work Mom didn’t like it so I left And kept on doing what I knew best I did take after you though dad Put dope in my nose and beer in my hand Oh yeah by the way I have a little girl She’s three now and my whole world Her name is Asia she the cutest thing She enjoys life an the joy it brings She can enjoy life and do what kids do Because I’m a real father unlike you Now let’s skip ahead three more years Look in my eyes you see those tears? My daughter’s no longer with me yeah it’s true I’m turning into a piece of shit just like you Day by day is what I’ll do And day by day I’ll forgive you For not being there for your son Your life is over mines just begun I don’t want my daughter feeling the same way So I’ll make change in my life starting today
