Verse 1 I remember when, matter fact, I won’t remember shit/ 20 years out my life, n you weren’t there for a bit of it/ I know I wouldn’t benefit, from the presence of a coward/ But my younger days I still remember all them countless hours/ Thinkin how could, the man who gave me life simply not want me/ N how you’re the epitome of what I never wanna be/ Responsibility, something you don’t understand/ But what I can’t understand is how you call yourself a man/ How can you stand there and act like it wasn’t your fault to do it/ I’m the spitting image, you don’t need no blood test to prove it/ It got stupid feeling useless, that’s why I resort to music/ N fuck no we ain’t family cause we share the same fluids/ You had it easy, all you had to do was walk away/ But I’m reminded I don’t have a father every single day/ Only one regret, ashamed of the hate I generated/ So I’m sorry your new wife can’t get pregnant, karma’s a bitch ain’t it?/ Chorus I remember growin up I was missin you/ I never had a father I could listen to/ You’re the reason I’m the man I’ve grown into/ I became a better man for not knowing you/ But trust me when I make it you’ll be missing me/ N I ain’t gonna lie, revenge is so bittersweet/ I wish there weren’t parts of you that people didn’t see in me/ The worst mistake you ever made was never to believe in me/ Verse 2 This is my letter to you father ain’t your boy can spell?/ The only thing you ever showed me was what path to take to hell/ N to think this all stemmed from your hate on my mom’s race/ Let’s be honest, I can pass for white but you never looked at my face/ Never gave me the time of day, left me months before my birth/ The fact that you’re a coward or a racist, I don’t know which one is worse/ Maybe there are some lies and I don’t have all the facts/ But this just has to be the truth cause you were never there to ask/ I ain’t mad no more, but ain’t it a damn shame/ That I’m the only person that coulda carried your family name/ Truthfully, the situation has proven to be a positive/ Cause I learned to be a man better than you coulda taught me it/ I almost feel bad for you cause life comes at you fast/ N all the goals you set for your life I will have already passed/ Now that I’m grown and my dreams are within my grasp/ Don’t come around askin for nothin, won’t even let you kiss my ass/ Chorus Verse 3 Somebody told me once to face your fears you must be brave/ But if it's you who seeks revenge you better dig two graves/ The man that dwells on the past never lives today/ But I ain't got no respect for the man that gives his kids away/ Better yet never claims em, n they're proved to be the parent/ N lie habitually, but the truth is still apparent/ When I think about you leavin me/ You really think I was concieved without a father then you should listen up here when Jesus speaks/ Not claiming that I'm god, I'm just claimin that your wrong/ N if not for me venting you would never be in one of my songs/ With all these emotions, I'm surprised I could keep em this long/ I’dda hit you in court that day, if not for me bein this strong/ Guess I can blame that on you but I learned it from your absence/ Had to go back n attack it just to truly move past it/ If you hear this song n hate it, don't hate the fact that you’re in it/ You should hate the fact that that I wrote it in only 30 minutes you bitch/ Chorus
