Dear Dad

Leif Jennings

Leaf float down the river like
He be drifting through his life
Callin him young terrified
They can see it in his eyes
See the way he always cry
Daddy why'd you have to lie
You ain't coming home tonight
I ain't gonna see you over
Holidays Birthdays Christmas too cold
I'm too old
To buy your excuses
Cause you sold your soul
Little did I know that you would hold what I know
The power in your hands though you've never held my hand
And I wouldn't call you fam
All you are is that man
A walking sperm bank
A piranha fish tank
Only dangerous if you touch it
When I'm looking I say fuck it
Final drop in final bucket
And I'm tired of the racket
Serena with the racket
Hitting all the batshit
Thoughts out my brain
That don't seem to go away
They get worse when they stay
Tryna be a legend
Young boy go get em
Fear the mind inside of me
Tired of him fighting me
Staying so exhausted b
Can you sub in for me
We could be tagging team
Let me be Jeff please
Swanton off the 100th floor
Falling through these open doors
Tripping think I pulled the cord
All my hopes I can't afford
So I spite the jewelry store
With a chain necklace of my face
Down payment of my life I paid late
Shred me through the grate
Think they went and locked the gate
Cause I was too fucking great
Need a quadruple duple xl
Need a shirt to fit my ego
Walking in the stars got me thinking I'm a Hero
Open eyes from my bed not far guess I am a zero

Say I never think and only know
Really I just fake it but they can never know
Say that I never think and only know
Really I just fake it
Say I never think and only know
Really I just fake it but they can never know
Say I never think and only know
Really I just fake it

Where were you when I was growing up
Now I think I'm grown enough
To say I really hate you
Drive you out my brain
Part of me is thankful
Cause even though you I affiliate with you in no way
The man I am today
Was born from all your wrong ways
So I'm fighting 2 wrongs as I go my way
When I'm up in lights
Playing sold out shows
When you sit at home
I just hope you know
Leif he made it out
No he ain't your son
Gramps took over
Dead beat dads move over
For that I'm forever thankful
And this song it got me thinking
Gramps I love you
Hope I make you proud

Say that I never think and only know
Really I just fake it but they can never know
Say that I never think and only know
Really I just fake it
Say that I never think and only know
Really I just fake it but they can never know
Say that I never think and only know
Really I just fake it
