forje - father's day lyrics

[intro]
this one’s for you old man
ah i’m gonna need a drink for this one

[verse 1]
happy father’s day, or as i say… father’s day
misery seeks company
public absentee number one, so i’ll just call it another day
in the life of a son of a gun, a.k.a. weapon
indirect way to take shots at my mum
grew up everyday on sma
grown, giving back, single mothers appreciation
favour for a favour
carrying the same grudge, consensus
remain bitter, out of flavour with the pretentious
claim defenceless, the shame is endless
psychological trip, start to end this, for the sake of the kids
taking the p+ss and then leave us to deal with the sh+t
that’s something a good father never did
emotions won’t flood the memories, still waters run deep
takes more than blood to be a family
like it takes more than words to earn your keep
would rather play games than console thee
an early variable of a future cold and lonely

[chorus]
father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can, don’t wait for just one date
always appreciate, don’t wait before it’s too late

father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can’t, don’t hate just for the sake
make a change, if not, then it’s down to fate

[verse 2]
june the twenty something or another
take on the role of a father being an older brother
step up to the mark
thinking how to shadow the footsteps of a man in the dark
light up the path, carry the torch, had to mature
no more hanging on the porch
changing the times, turning to rhyme, useful distraction
i stand by my actions
that’s the difference between us, opposite demeanours
broke support, no rapport, when we were being taken to the cleaners
swept under the carpet, like a leaf from your book
never read too far into things, a lie is all it took
to keep the atmosphere, but i’m not as stupid as you look
same excuse every year, to why you disappear every time an event is near
seek answers from beer
breakdown of communications
now everyone suffers similar consequences for different occasions
no one ever built bridges by sitting on fences
come to your senses

[chorus]
father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can, don’t wait for just one date
always appreciate, don’t wait before it’s too late

father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can’t, don’t hate just for the sake
make a change, if not, then it’s down to fate

[verse 3]
are we still here, with no progress?
typical case of the more something is said, it makes you wanna do it less
the more you’re told no, the more you tell yourself yes
you know you’ve done wrong but your pride is stuck in your chest
playground quarrels, anger over morals
bad example set from a silhouette, supposed to be role model
it’s easy to forget when your heart is set, matter over mind
it’s hard to accept you’ve lost, no matter what you find
no regrets, no more second best, no forgiveness, ’cause mud sticks
it seems you can’t teach an old dog new tricks
and fortune doesn’t lie in candle wicks or biscuits
bad choices not even flowers can fix, the stigma still exists
i’m not doing this to look cool or i would’ve taken up smoking in secondary school
this is to help you, find what’s been missin’
since trying, this is the last means i have of getting through to you
from mr hoping you’ll listen

[chorus]
father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can, don’t wait for just one date
always appreciate, don’t wait before it’s too late

father’s day, not everybody can relate
mother’s day, not everybody can relate
to those who can’t, don’t hate just for the sake
make a change, if not, then it’s down to fate

[outro]
shoutout to all the real parents who stuck by their responsibilities as a parent
and thanks for everything mum
