Sons Of The Prophet - Promise 2 Forgive lyrics

rate me

Verse 1(Lypher):

The things you did up until now

It still taunts me.

I get up every morning looking in the mirror

Your facial features I see

And it still haunts me.

Cause basically and recently

I’m growing up to look more like you

And the question for me seriously.

Will I grow to be less or more like you?

Cuz I don’t wanna take the road you went

Spend the times you spent

Times you deceive to receive

Having people to believe the things you

Didn’t really meant.

And in your shoes, I’ll never put my feet

I’ll never walk your walk

Never make promises,

I know I can’t keep.

I gave you the best of me

But I guess I’ll never make you proud

Cause you don’t think

More or less of me….

To you, I’m just your son point blank

So the things you do are through obligation

So to you, I just don’t thank.

But that’s okay

Fathers are examples what

You ought to be

And what my old man is

I don’t want to be

I’m sorry if this comes out

Indecently, but you gotta understand

How my broken hearts

Pieces be…

Chorus:

As long as I live

I promise to forgive

The father that I only saw

And never got the chance to know

Who he really is…..

Verse 2:

I wanted attention

Suffered by the weight of rejection

Depressed by the state of neglection

My purpose in life, was now an empty section

And the dead on my insides

Now needed a resurrection,

It was clear to me

I know what real hurt is

I know what being treated like real dirt is.

I thank the Lord for my mother everyday

Or else I wouldn’t even know what my real true worth is.

Guess I was the child of waste

So in my heart I grew up the child of hate

So I couldn’t forgive therefore

I couldn’t progress

So I needed to get this burn off my chess.

Verse 3:

Living with no father

I know I needed one

But get to Him

I know I had to need the Son.

Cause no man cometh

To the Father but by Christ.

I know you know my next line,

I gave up my life.

My characters now strong

To a rock from a pebble.

Cause I got a pops to lean on

I know He real special.

And I don’t wanna upset you

But you don’t know a real

Father if you never had

The Lord Jesus Christ met you.

So now ammo let you

Open up your heart

Give Him all.
