Letter To My Father

Your rating:
Drinking by my lonesome, Not sure who to call 
everybody only see the outside think I ball
but they don't really know me at all, 
never walked in my shoes never saw what I saw. 

I rap it late nite, I'm writing letters to my father he ain't never Finna read
a picturing of my life, flower as you see 
and wondering bout his thoughts the day when I was conceived 
life it deceive shit I was taught that it would be alright, 
now it doesn't correspond by with what I see at night, 
uh, things turn sour on that day in April
damn near tried to hang myself with cables in the garage 
the life it get hard if you think I'm any different 'cause they view me as a star 
Well then you are just far from the truth 
Lost my father at 16, mother worry bout laying on as a victeen boy it gets sickening 
can't fall dying every day up on the big screen 
and all I got is big dreams 
all for that money people with swix teens 
and I would give it all to take your name from that obituary listing, 
are you listening 'cause I'll be yelling at the sky like "did you miss me?"
pops, 'cause I think about you every day,
I never got the say goodbye, I want that shit in every way 
every day I roll learn to toast in your honor 
it's awful hard to be a man when you don't got yourself a father 
but I carry on, 
just hoping that I make you proud, 
and fuck my opposition now you're trying to take me out 
they just don't know 
they just don't know 

I rap at late night, still writing letter to my father he ain't never Finna read
 'cause still from the outside pain it inside 
they ask bout my copers skills lately I been high 
I swear I got a couple pills with me, 
couple of home boys they say they kill with me, 
an angel was on my shoulder, 
I don't think it's still with me, 
see like the devil prevail 
is that the story every bezel entel
I swear I got myself a fan base to love my life, 
think I'm doing something right so I run up with their home boy and their freestyles 
is that fucking tight?
Me while I've been dealing with the depression 
I can't escape if I don't have progression 
swear I need a session like every night 
I'ts like a fix to me, you let your emotions at home 
and now they stick to me, shit, 
and that's a heavy weight to hold on, 
never did learn how to swim, 
how should I float on, now I never had no option to give, 
I get my vowed on 
you just packing shit and left and I was so long ago 
and I feel like it was yesterday 
I ain't seen my heart ever since, 
put my chest away 'cause this here today and it's gone tomorrow 
wish there was more time that I could borrow  
it's gone tomorrow 
wish there was more time that I could borrow. 

I write this song, in remembrance of my father that  
past way on April 20th 2009 it was probably a regular day ta most of y'all but it's the day I lost my best friend, my mentor, my father 
in this crazy type of criticism and just descending you could receive from 
a large portion of people that have never met me and never been through anything that I've been through 
and that's why my father he used to keep me real level headed, 
and tell me to do my own thing and not worry about all the excess and 
is always gonna be hate you from all size but 
you know at the end of the day they just don't know
