daddyphatsnaps – letter to levi lyrics

[chorus]
so many things i can think about to say
since december third, i think about them every day
i just want to be the father you look up to as you age
be the person that i tell you you should emulate
i look into your eyes, and the feeling, it is strange
never thought that i could love somebody so much in a day
hold your hand, and my heart, it gives way
and i hold it in the dark, so you’re not afraid

[verse 1]
just the three of us, you really couldn’t have a better mom
when she saw you, i knew that you’d never leave her arms
we were crying, and in that moment, three of us would bond
everyone and everything would gone, you were all we saw
it was crazy, and in that moment, everything had changed
’cause the second you arrived, i knew that nothing was the same
little levi, did you know that almost was my name?
grandma loved it, so when you grow up, i hope you feel the same
i love our conversations, every day there’s something new you learn
yesterday you couldn’t flip around, now all you do is turn
now you’re grabbing things, and by that i mean everything in reach
every day i get to see your little personality
everything is happening so quick, you’re already six
months old, man, where did the time go?
let’s just cherish every moment, always looking toward the better
and when i’m gone, you will always have this letter
[chorus]
so many things i can think about to say
since december third, i think about them every day
i just want to be the father you look up to as you age
be the person that i tell you you should emulate
i look into your eyes, and the feeling, it is strange
never thought that i could love somebody so much in a day
hold your hand, and my heart, it gives way
and i hold it in the dark, so you’re not afraid

[verse 2]
you’ve got a family that loves you, let’s shuffle through some names
daddy’s dad use to fly across the country for his games
we are special, the three of us are bonded by the james
he’s a fighter, he taught me how to rally through the pain
then there’s grandma, she taught me what to look for in a mom
and when i speak of love, she’s the one i’m speaking on
she’s the glue, the gravity of love is something strong
and the love i share with you is an extension of her arm
the you have your great grandparents always on the go
papa likes to play it cool, but loves harder than you know
grandma t leads with her love, so you always feel at home
grandma c, she will do anything, so you don’t feel alone
there’s rian and there’s louis, your aunty and your uncle
then there’s aunties and your uncles, our family’s a jungle
but we love each other dearly, our family, our crew
and every piece of them is a little piece of you
[chorus]
so many things i can think about to say
since december third, i think about them every day
i just want to be the father you look up to as you age
be the person that i tell you you should emulate
i look into your eyes, and the feeling, it is strange
never thought that i could love somebody so much in a day
hold your hand, and my heart, it gives way
and i hold it in the dark, so you’re not afraid

[verse 3]
there was an anger in this world, son, the year that you were born
it was full of different turmoil, everyone was torn
as a father, it was hard to see the hate amongst americans
i hope when you grow up, they’ll see the value in your heritage
i hope when you grow up that we’ll be done with all this ignorance
and that you won’t be judged ’cause you look a little different
if you are, i hope you’ll find the strength to fight indifference
i’ll educate you, so that you can make your points deliberate
this also was the year of journey, me and mom again
but this journey has a purpose, we’re looking toward the end
i just want the conversations that you’re having with your friends
to be filled with memories that you and i and mom have spent
so anything you need, no matter how old, don’t forget
we will always be here for you, when you need us to protect
we will always be here for you through the failures and success
that’s my promise to you ’till my final breath
