Lyrics Listen for Once - Jabez Z , DedDreamer

Just so you know, this is not disrespect
I just had to get some things off my chest
I don't care if you hear this, I'll let you rest
But, hey, let me put you to the test
Why you gotta take 10K from my brother?
Why you gotta be so judgemental of my mother?
To be honest, all the bad times we had overcome the good ones
So leave it in the gutter
Yes, I know sometimes I fail
Gone at worst timing, I guess it's okay to bail
I guess it's my fault, oh my, oh, me
I wanted to die, hoping I would OD
So you're lucky I could never find a way!
'Cause I know if I did, you'd miss me every day
But you left for a while, so what's the difference?
No, you're not always right, you just like to think different

To be honest, all the bad times we had overcome the good ones
So leave it in the gutter

Pops, please, just listen for once
Instead of World of Warcraft in the basement for fun
You could've come upstairs for once, talk to your son
I would've told you what's up, you could've helped me the fuck up
C'mon, Dad! What the fuck is wrong with you?
If I have a son, now I'll know what not to do
I'll teach him every lesson that you never taught me
Maybe that way, somebody can fix our legacy
You gave me your pain and your fuckin' last name
So now I gotta live with the fact that things might be the same
I fuckin' love food, my depression had grew
Fuckin' aneurysms, like common sense, I got that from you
I can't fuckin' wait to say, "I told you so"
And the day that I do, I'll be richer than you ever know
I'll help you out 'cause I love you, even though I know
That you know that I'll continue to grow

I'll teach him every lesson that you never taught me
Maybe that way, somebody can fix our legacy

Listen for once is all I ask
Zack, c'mon, you're falling off task
I'm just wishing for my happiness back
Am I even proud to call myself Zack?
Yeah, you're my father, but you're not my dad
I knew you had depression, that's why I felt bad
Don't even ask me why I'm sad
You never fuckin' listened, what choice did I have?
If I got talent, I might as well use it
Without a father, I really felt useless
Where is my father? Where did he go?
Thinking 'bout you gives me the strength to forever grow
I don't really care no more, I don't really know
Illusions disappear, but you stay for the show
We've been waiting so long
And by now you should know we're always strong, I'm always strong

And you know what? Just trust me on that
I'm always strong
