I used to pretend like i m the guy
Who could make a life
Who could learn to fly
All on his own
But i really didnt know
What it means to live
What it means to survive
.
But I m sorry all this time i let you down
And now i m really feeling like a frown
I wish i could go back in space and time
When i was a kid growing up to a man in this town
You made me stand up on my feet
Fulfilled all my wish and all of my needs
And I took it for granted
There's something more I wanted
Cuz a boy has his dreams
And a man has his duties
Dream and duties never go along
But a father has his heart
And a son has his ego
Wish i could hold your fingers and walk my life
But there's a wall between us that keeps us quiet.
And I said to myself few moments ago
I should give up
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go
I can't just let it all go
And I said to myself few moments ago
I should give up
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go
I can't just let it all go
I used to pretend being the guy
who knows everything what's wrong or right
But I've grown a lil bit from being a kid
Then I realized that I know nothing yet
I pretended knowing everything that I do
but everytime we argued i learned something new
You're not just my feeder ,also my teacher
And if i worshipped another god it would be you
When i screamed at you i just harmed my self
My conscience used to melt coz my brain was hell
See how i regret being a bad son but every human has his mistakes for real
I rest with you , respect you , forgive me coz i missed with you
I'm sorry dude , its for you and the relationship dat i risked it too
I hope you get this message dad
Its more important than the life i had
I promise to be your good son
I promise you to make you glad .
So lets forget all the mistakes
Like two kites and fly away
You are my reason for being here
....
LIKE IT WOULD BE NO EMINEM WITHOUT DR.DRE
I m sorry I let you down
And now I feel like a frown
Oh Dad can't you see
I've grown up to a man in this town
I lay on my inner thoughts
I ignored some of the things you taught
Oh Dad can't you see
I'm still the one who i used to be
And I said to myself few moments ago
I should give up
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go
I can't just let it all go
And I said to myself few moments ago
I should give up
Just let it all go
Let it all go
Let it all go
I can't just let it all go
