Mama called about the paper turns out they wrote about me |
[00:04.71] |
Now my broken heart's the only thing that's broke about me |
[00:08.03] |
So many people should have seen what we got going on |
[00:11.48] |
I only wanna put my heart and my life in songs |
[00:14.87] |
Writing about the pain I felt with my daddy gone |
[00:18.14] |
About the emptiness I felt when I sat alone |
[00:21.50] |
About the happiness i feel when I sing it loud |
[00:25.04] |
He should have heard the noise we made with the happy crowd |
[00:28.39] |
Did my grandaddy know he taught me what a poem was |
[00:31.86] |
How you can use a sentence or just a simple pause |
[00:35.21] |
What will I say when my kids ask me who my daddy was |
[00:38.58] |
I thought about it for a while and I'm at a loss |
[00:41.96] |
Knowing that I'm gonna live my whole life without him |
[00:45.53] |
I found out a lot of things I never knew about him |
[00:48.94] |
All I know is that I'll never really be alone |
[00:52.23] |
Cause we gotta lot of love and a happy home |
[00:58.20] |
|
[01:09.78] |
Magazines are writing stuff but I don't ever read them |
[01:12.91] |
Some of the folks I used to know would see and start believing |
[01:16.29] |
That I would pass them by on streets and never reach to greet them |
[01:19.60] |
I still remember folks even though I rarely meet them |
[01:23.02] |
Don't you know I miss the times when we used to hang |
[01:26.49] |
Before twenty deep depended on a single man |
[01:29.69] |
Before a single heart was broken by a single blow |
[01:33.16] |
Before all our careers depended on a single show |
[01:36.73] |
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home |
[01:40.25] |
Now I got a lot of cash and I'm on a road |
[01:43.57] |
I realize privacy's becoming difficult |
[01:46.91] |
It's all right now but what about when I'm old |
[01:50.46] |
I know my good friends now they'll last |
[01:53.96] |
the same ones that stood by me when my daddy past |
[01:57.45] |
All I know is that we'll never really be alone |
[02:00.75] |
Cause we got a lot of love and a happy home |
[02:04.81] |
|
[02:17.82] |
I write a lot of songs will anybody ever read them |
[02:21.05] |
You hear them on the radio but will you really read them |
[02:24.52] |
Why do we have our idols and why do we wanna be them |
[02:27.88] |
After we see them on TV we really wanna meet them |
[02:31.33] |
Don't you think they miss the time when they used to hang |
[02:34.74] |
Before a fan base depended on a single man |
[02:38.03] |
Before a single heart was broken by a single show |
[02:41.39] |
Who's gonna stand who's gonna fall I really wanna know |
[02:44.93] |
I grew up with a lot of love in a happy home |
[02:48.43] |
My daddy use to play me vinyl but now daddy's gone |
[02:51.86] |
I used to practice with my mommy on the piano |
[02:55.12] |
I still get nervous every time I know she's at a show |
[02:58.70] |
Now my family comes first before everyone |
[03:02.05] |
I had the perfect dad I wanna be the perfect son |
[03:05.69] |
Though I really feel sometimes I am on my own |
[03:08.89] |
I know I got a lot of love and a happy home |
[03:12.74] |
