paroles de chanson Fatherless - J-R3MI

Forgive my father, for he has sinned
He grew up without a father, fatherless
He never even met his dad or knew who he is
His momma told him shit 'cause she didn't know it
Or was tryna keep him from it to shelter her kid
And it doesn't help that he is from a different
Daddy from Marcy and daddy from Pam, both of my aunties
Goddamnit, it's sad
To come from the projects, to come from the sand
But he could've made it through with the help of the hand
Of his grandmama Jackson
But then she passed
Into the afterlife, and he felt abandoned
He had bad friends who would take advantage
Of his situation and put in his face this
Cocaine, take his soul away, then
Split from the pic, have him deal with it
All on his own
He wouldn't tell my mom
What was goin' on
He was a tickin' bomb
Keepin' secrets, embarrassed of himself
He would bury shit deep in his heart on a shelf
Never open it, kept it closed tight
Spoke like a zombie when he fuckin' poked white
Needles in his arm, then he got so high
And drunk at the same time to kill his own mind
To forget the shit that he's been through
Kept it in the past to get over people
But in fact it had the opposite effect
It created equal problems
He's depressed and less than before
He's in a deep hole
Tryna get out, but he's trapped in limbo
Like a man who's good, but also evil
And now he's got a kid, and my life's the sequel

Fatherless
Dad is
Not around, found
Fatherless

Forgive me, Father, for this is sin
Cursin' my father and all that he did
In the past and does now, the way that he hit
My mother and instilled fear in his kids
His abusive nature that came from the pit
In his heart and soul, now is fit for the gin
He drowns his sorrows out like I do with my pen
But it wasn't inspiration that I needed from him
I needed his love, man, but he failed to give
He just takes and takes shit
His presence is drainin'
I try to be the son that he wished he raised when
He was still in the pic, but now it's fadin'
'Cause he's not my dad, just a man that gave his
Seed to my mother 'cause my needs must be under
His, but I thought a parent is supposed to
Put their own life last and sacrifice for their kids
I'll suffice without him as I have for the ten
Years or so that I've been the lone wolf
The only man in a household of four, just
Taught myself how to be a man
'Cause I lacked the example from a healthy dad
But that shit won't happen when I have a kid
'Cause it's the truth I'm rappin', and I'ma take care of her or him
