micah bournes - dear dad lyrics

Loading...

don’t tell me to calm down
he’s the one angry for no
reason
ain’t n0body done nothin’ to
him
if he wanted a clean house
he shoulda
thought about it before he
had six kids
that ain’t even my stuff
i can’t wait to get up outa
here

micah, can’t you see what’s happening?
you’re becoming just like him

no i’m not!!!!!!

dear dad
i’ve been avoiding this
letter for years, because i promised myself if i ever wrote this it would be honest, the full picture
but sometimes, things intending to heal
only peel scabs off of old wounds
and that is exactly what i am
determined not to do

this is not a comprehensive list of
your shortcomings
lord knows you could do the same to me
and love keeps no record of wrong
but my heart has and for that i ask
forgiveness

dear dad
i was afraid you might misunderstand me, so i convinced myself it’d be more respectful to wait till you were home in glory and tell our story in your remembrance. but there’s nothing respectful about cowardice, and if i believe poetry can bring healing i must speak it while you can still hear me

dear dad
i write poetry, i write songs, i’m becoming just like you and that is a
compliment, not an insult

dear dad
i was wrong

dear dad
i keep starting over ‘cause i don’t know how to finish, i don’t know what else to say. i don’t wanna start an argument that goes nowhere. i just want you to hear

dear dad
dear dad, dad, you’re dear to me

dear dad, sincerely – micah
