a.m. pressive - dear father lyrics
(verse 1)
this is my credence gotta leave a candle burning in the window every night, alright
cause i’m hoping if you need to find your way back home you can use it as your guiding light
i can recall the day, the smell, the sights
it was dusk, but it seemed like the dawn of a new life
only new wasn’t better, it was lesser, and it felt like i’d been gutted by a dull knife
sitting on a soaking wet lawn with my sister and my mom as i lost my grip on this delicate, fleeting life
friends and family in and out of st. john’s, four hours, five to nine
hope was a live, but sometimes hope doesn’t fix broken
and pops was too broken to be fixed this time
he really slipped this time
shatter bones, it was off to the other side
on the heels of a flatline
i felt my heart beat like that for the last time
and i’ll never know if i could’ve stopped you from taking that godd-mned final ride
and it felt as if someone cracked my ribs
opened up my chest and attached a sieve
then drained what was left of the life and the blood that you helped give
(hook)
eyes wide open for illusions of apparitions
we all look for the ghosts of those we’re missing
hoping we can reconnect by bending all the dimensions
and breaking the barriers separating our systems
(verse 2)
it’s been four years and in four more years i’ll still be thinking of those former years
even though the well has dried up and there’s no more tears
the void remains a hole that howls when the frigid wind blows
but your legacy is like a flame that only grows hotter than the coals burning right beneath my soles
keeps me on my feet, it keeps the boom in my heartbeat
motivation to move past defeat
to keep fighting for every worthy cause in this world that i truly believe in
you’re the one who taught me how to be a man
how to care and provide, how to love and to fight
and i swear i’ll do every single thing i can to make sure you’ll always be proud of who i am
dear father this is my thank you
dear father this is my breakthrough
dear father i don’t know where you are, but i hope you see the great things that i’ll do
in my heart, in your guidance i will trust
i may falter many times, but i’ll never be a bust
i really can’t say it enough
thank you once again for my life and your love
