j knockz - why did you leave? lyrics
verse 1:
18 years ago, you left without saying goodbye
walked out the door, left us all, and i’m wondering why?
did you even care about us? were we good enough?
or was it ’cause times between you and mom were getting rough?
that shouldn’t have mattered
you should have stayed like a real father
see a real man would take care of his son and his daughter
man, i was just a little boy, didn’t know what to do
was so lost and confused, i really don’t remember you
and that’s hard on a kid, i know, i’ve been through the struggle
wondering where my daddy, feel like i’m trapped in a tunnel
with no light at the end, just walking around in darkness
feeling like you were heartless, leaving us like we were carc-ss
maybe not, but regardless dang i shouldn’t feel like that
i’ve been fighting this battle within and been hit with jabs
my flesh wanting to rise, i know i need to forgive
it’s hard though ’cause i’ll prolly never see him again
hook: (x2)
why did you leave? (leave) where did you go? (go)
did you even care about your own? (own)
why did you leave? (leave) where did you go? (go)
these are some questions i’d like to know (know)
verse 2:
now listen dad, this is nothing against you
anything i say in this song, it’s not meant to offend you
i just wanna spill my heart
out on the mic like i’m suppose to do
these vocals prove that god is mighty
and he’s fixed my broken views
i use to hate the fact that my dad was never there
to teach me how to be a man, treat a lady and really care
but now at 24, i look back and i realize
god blessed me with some real guys
who knew christ through some real eyes
i admit it took a while to understand his plan
but through his guidance and love, he’s made me the man i am
he showed me that everything happens for a reason
so i’ll never stop believing
’cause i know god won’t ever decieve me
so from now on i’ma start praying for you daily
i know god’s grace and mercy can save you, just like it saved me
you wasn’t really in my life, so i can’t say that i miss you
but i’m commissioned to love, so dad, know i forgive you
