the real enemy - dear father lyrics

Loading...

{intro}
yeah

{verse 1}
dear father, i don’t know your face like that
no bedtime stories, no how was your day chats
mama said he busy, i said busy doing what
cause he missed every birthday cake, still cut
no throwing footb+lls, no father+son talks
i learn how to shave from the tv and jokes
school play front row seats stayed empty
but my mom clapped loud enough for like 20
i ain’t mad though, just mildly amused
you missed my whole childhood, crazy reviews
like season 1 kid, you ain’t even tap in
show got renewed now, i’m the star of it, imagine

{hook}
dear father, where you been at
i made it anyways, yeah, imagine that
no hand to hold, no backup plan
still turned out fly respectfully man
dear father, where you been at
i made it anyways, yeah, imagine that
no hand to hold, no backup plan
still turned out fly respectfully man
{verse 2}
i taught myself lessons you were supposed to give
like, don’t trust stairs that creak and pay your bills
i learned discipline from rent being late
responsibility from watching mom do everything great
you ain’t teach me how to drive, i learned off fear
every turn, i heard my mom yell slow it down, dear
graduation day, i scanned the crowd quick
saw my mom twice, still no sign of him
i ain’t broken, i ain’t bitter, i just joke about it
turn pain into punchlines, that’s how i route it
if success had parents, mine single+handed
still raised a legend, yeah, that’s wild, ain’t it

{hook}
dear father, where you been at
i made it anyways, yeah, imagine that
no hand to hold, no backup plan
still turned out fly respectfully man
dear father, where you been at
i made it anyways, yeah, imagine that
no hand to hold, no backup plan
still turned out fly respectfully man

{verse 3}
now i’m grown, got peace, got plans
got confidence you can’t teach understand
i don’t hate you, i don’t even stress
life already gave me the crash course test
if you hear this song, like d+mn, that’s me
don’t feel bad, just clap from a distance, g
cause i survived off love that stayed
not the one that dipped and never came back ay
so this ain’t a diss, this is a progress report from a kid who learned strength was a solo sport
i ain’t missing nothing. i upgraded faster
yes, absence taught me how to be my own father, yeah
{outro}
dear father
hope you’re doing well
i’m good though
real good
