I swear to tell the truth and nothin’ but the truth
so help me God
I just felt like telling the story of my life
felt like maybe somebody could be inspired
we all feel pain we all go through things
but it’s time to overcome all that
if your plane crashed in the water and everybody died
would you drown on purpose or try to stay alive
I was born handicapped my arm wouldn’t move
they called me a cripple pops caught an attitude
beat my moms smoked lie drove trucks
my moms had a miscarraige he didn’t give a fuck
he sniffed some coke come home
beat up on my moms cause she’s talkin’ on the phone
come on

Chorus:

all I ever wanted
all I ever needed
was a father
that’s all
all I ever wanted
all I ever needed
was a father

moms got tired of the beatings said yo we got to go
packed up her bags we bounced out the do’
she said I ain’t takin’ these whippin’s no mo’
I wanna live to see my little Todd grow
I remember tear drops on my pops face
lookin’ down at me standing on the stair case
handsome brova with a smooth goatee
makes me wonder why he act so ugly
you feeling me

Chorus

my pops got drunk when me and my moms bounced
swigged some jack day and sniffed up an ounce
grabbed the shotty left Long Isle for Queens
possesed by a demon a devil it seemed
I was too young to understand the risk
when your moms come home off the midnight shift
she turned around heard the shotgun click
my pops said you think that you could leave me
he blasted my moms in the back
she fell down screamin’ I can’t forget that
my grandfather tried to close the do’
he got shot ten times in the stomach yo
for real

Chorus

my head was spinning I had never seen blood
four years old this don’t feel like love
any way pops dissapeared
grandpops and moms healed up over the years
this therapist got up in her head
led her to beleive without him she’d be dead
you know they fell in love with one another
everything seemed right that’s word to mother
until I started gettin’ beatings every day
sometimes for going outside to play
late at night on my knees I pray
young child wishing the pain would go away
dad where was you when he made me strip
beat with belts like a slave with a whip
kicked me down steps outside in the snow
punched me in the chest stomped me out on the flo’
that’s just the tip of the iceberg look
it’s too long for a song but perfect for a book
word is bond
that’s real baby

Chorus

Beat me down, one more time
Words of love, hard to find
Gotta find my mother, she won’t lie
Where the hell’s my father
Farther, farther
You like to lie
Swimming in the water
One last time
Imagination cross my mind
I beat the bush, i beat the bush
Shove me down
Where the hell’s my father
Farther, farther
You like to lie
Father, old man, can you find me
Father, old man, do you care
Father, old man, can you find me
Do you care
Father
You like to lie

Your life is like a castle built upon the sand
All the work is done but it will not stand
Your life is like a picture without any paint
It’s left you feeling blank and a little incomplete
From the answers that you seek
All the questions that you have all lie in Him

Chorus

He is the way the truth and the life
He’s my road to take me home
He is the way the truth and the life
He’s my father and my friend

Life is overwhelming when you start to doubt
Have faith He is with you here and now
So many questions you have asked along your way
Like who I am where I came from where will I go
When I leave here from this world
I have faith that heaven is within my reach

All these years
An angry child
Broken, shattered
Torn inside

Father
Where were you?
Where were…

I feel old
I feel dead
Barely hangin’
By a thread

Father
Where were you?
Where were…

To my father
How could you run?
You walked away
Abandoned your son
Broke my heart
Left me dyin’
So fucked up
Where i came from

What’s a father without a son?
It’s like a bullet without a gun
I live to die, i’ll fly away
You’re the knife and i’m the prey
But you’re dead, so fucking dead
We all gotta die, so fucking die

I love you daddy

But it’s time to overcome all that

Verse one: ll cool j

If your plane crashed in the water and everybody died
Would you drown on purpose or try to survive?
I was born handicapped my arm wouldn’t move
They called me a cripple pops caught an attitude
Beat my moms smoked lye drove trucks
My moms had a miscarriage, he didn’t give a fuck
He sniffed some coke, come home
Beat up on my moms cause she’s talkin on the phone
Come on

Packed up her bags we bounced out the do’

Lookin down at me standin on the staircase
Handsome brother with a smooth goatee
Makes me wonder why he act so ugly, you feelin me?
(i’m feelin you)

Chorus

My pops got drunk when me and my moms bounced
Swigged some jack dan’, sniffed up a ounce

Led her to believe without him she’d be dead
You know, they fell in love with one another
Everything seemed right that’s word to mother
Until i started gettin beatings everday
Sometimes for going outside to play
Late at night on my knees i’d pray
A young child, wishin the pain would go away

No one hears me

No one sees me
No one makes me smile
No one misses me
No one kisses me
No one told me why

While you’re trying to remember years go by
Still afraid of your behavior who am I?

Father
Can you hear me?
Can you feel my pain?
Can you see me?
Father
Can you hear me?
Can you feel my pain?
Can you see me?

No one needs me
No one feeds me
No one wants to lie
Since you left me
No one loves me
No one even tries

All those years are like a cancer in my mind
If I’ll call you would you answer one last time?

Father…
Can you hear me?
Can you feel my pain?
Can you see me?
Father
Can you hear me?
Can you feel my pain?
Can you see me?

Soft like a snowwhite flower
Like a tender song
Like a moment we’ll share forever
You were there every hour
Were there just for me
In my mind we will always be together

Where are you, father
I just can’t understand
Why you leave me alone every night
When i’m dreaming of our lives
I cry for you , father

What is the truth of love
When you’re up above
And i cannot reach you, father
It’s driving me insane
Feeling endless pain
And i ask myself again and again

Where are you, father?
There’s so much to say
I’ve so much to tell you
Oh i’m so afraid

So listen my father
I just can’t understand
Why you leave me alone
In desperate nights
When i dream about our life
I cry for you, father

Father oh father
Hear me if you can
Is it true what they say
That life is a dream
I don’t understand
The things that make rain in my eyes
Are they real or are they lies

You know i hear so much about you now
I’d give anything
To go on a little boat with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a little boat with you

Father oh father
Guide me if you can
Or give me the chance to follow you home
I am your son but i wish i knew you
When you were young
Were you lonely as a boy

You know i’d give so much to see you now
I’d go anywhere
Pick a little stick and walk with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a short walk with you

Father oh father
You give me just a little hope
I feel something out there reaching for me
Well here i am
Won’t you take me with you
Out of this maze
And away from this place

Because it gets so cold and lonely here
I’ll do anything
To sit on a little rock with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a small rock with you

Show me show me show me the way
Before they grind me down
And bleach me grey
Send me power not to be afraid
And when i close my eyes
Let me see you once in the light

Father oh father
Heal me if you can
Is it true what they say
That life is a dream

Father, blessed father,
It’s morning again.
I give you, father, myself, father,
Continue your plan.

I know together we can climb mountains in the sky.
No one can stop us when i’m standing by your side.

Trouble’s knocking here again;
I’ll tell him jesus has me by his hand.
He’ll walk me through.

Father, loving father,
Create in me
A pure love, father, your love, father,
Instill it in me.

I remember the nights i’ve cried for you;
Now i only have to die for you;
Thank you, lord, you’ve made it clear just for me.

I see the light;
It’s burning out the night.

Oh, father,
It’s morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.

We all so scared cause its, its war everywhere, you know
War everywhere
(Chorus)
How many friends will we see die? (Why we so scared cause it’s war everywhere)
How many friends will we see cry? (It’s war everywhere)
How many friends will we see try? (Why we so scared cause it’s war everywhere)
How many friends will we see die? (It’s war everywhere)
All we need is a little love, and someone standing for the little cubs
And I see brutality all over niggas killin’ niggas
The ghetto got them being born to be killas
Flooded with drugs and tryin to get us, so get up
But don’t give up, ya’ll gotta sit up
If you last before they kill us
And the guerillas, try come kill us
Pillage the village and we’ll be winna
I love it when niggas the way we took it to another level
So many rebels doing the best shit forever remembered
And in the killing fields, everybody’s locked up
And good niggas getting shot up da dadan dada
Mind if I say something for mine
Cause it’s about time, to get serious
A mysterious time, blind melons
It ain’t no telling, if the willing
Will stop chillin’, then help the children
Turning them out, then burning them out
Like morphine, waters getting shallow
It’s over and over the gallow
A president in the drop, it’s on now though
The end of life, for now so
I think it’s the ozone, bad to the bone bone
Mother Nature be long gone
And don’t nobody wanna do nothing but speculate
And all they worried about their own
Wrote a song for the future
Millenium, I’m in, I’m hopeing it don’t last untill we all past
Living in the stars, looking through grass
Aboard the enterprise, recognize this, in the course of a da-da-da-da-da-da-day
And thats the way we sing, thats the way we play
that’s the way they . . now and
[Chorus 2X]
Still got bombs from the cold war, radioactive
And the critics, they wont take action
They want us to repo this to your satisfaction
But while they build more, computers keep crashing
What about felling, pestilence dammit
How do we manage to keep standing
Living in a legacy of bitterness
With the epitimy of vigorous trips on the ships we were crammed in, slammed
in
Other man and them, why don’t we demanding our damn money
If we can’t get forty acres and a mule, let a nigga get a range rover
Shit you got time you, I’m still waiting on a canoe, but it will never come
I don’t even know where I come from or where I’m gonna go to
I’m headed to the mother land, but will I be accepted by the brotha man?
Awww me so confused, with nothing to gain and everything to lose, choose
The righteous and the high, look in the eyes and realize the lies
Family ties, but not even for the have-nots
Who the enemy? It ain’t me. It ain’t even the police
Unless they trippin’, and use that authority and start flippin’, flippin’
Leaving dead bodies, and with them bitchin’ hotties
That poppin’ the collar, my god I’m horny, ride shotty
And tellin’ the kids that ain’t the way to live properly
Get yo monopoly and get your own property
And that’s the way we sing, and that’s the way we play
and that’s the way they . . . now and
[Chorus 2X]
Ooooh and the daddies and momma forgivin’ so we can live with us
And all the runaways get off the bus
Kids, put the guns down, come down
If the rest build a bridge with us, it gotta get better than this
It’s head of the risk, shoulda been poor, and I been rich
Lost so many friends to the war shit, caution
When I get to walkin’, and it’s mobbin’, nigga in a crypt
Life is a fight to the street life, tonight
I might go meet the reaper, and I will give him a hug
And tell him "Thug luv won and I’m so glad to meet ya"
And that’s the way we sing, and that’s the way we play
and that’s the way they . . . now and
[Chorus to fade]

Oh father, what happened to you
Did you have more urgent affairs to attend to?
Did business press, or did you just get bored
Thrown half your life through a one way door?
Sometimes it scares me, look in the mirror
And see myself growing up looking like you
No i don’t have much time to waste getting worried
I’ve got more urgent affairs of my own to attend to

Father, what happened to you
Haven’t seen you in a whole decade
Did you ever learn, did you ever grow up
Are you still as weak, do i make you feel afraid?
Do you tell your friends there’s a son somewhere?
Did you ever wonder how he looks?
Did anyone ever give you my number?
Say here’s two pence ‘cos my phone’s off the hook
