Story behind the song
Life
Lyrics
I was confused Whether or not we could weather this weather
Should I be single and free or it was better to settle
I was moving to fast I had the pedal to the metal
And my mental was severed I had to wrestle with devils
I was so stressed I confess it was a mess when I left you
Tried to express what I meant to and although it was hard
It was a test we were blessed thru a message of refuge
And sometimes you gotta look for the lesson he left you
We had some trouble with trust so I just slumped in your hugs
And thru the rubble and dust looked something like love
Thru the confusing and abusing the illusion was dark
There’s no fusion the conclusion I was losing your heart
Thru trial and tribulations the lies and situation
You cry at shit we facing it would ignite my impatience
Fighting I was raging and losing sight of our relations
And despite that u right back and well die as were embracing
Since my damn father never sent me card
I was mentally scarred life was meant to be hard
In this fight called life I respected the odds
On insightful night I would repent to my god
As a man I would see my father standing in my dreams
He handed me his genes I was damned with these things
I’d never be angel cause he branded my wings
He pulled the strands and the strings that planned what I think
That would explain my temperament how im emotionally guarded
And the pain it represents and why devotion was harder
I’m scared of commitment what happenens when I have kids
If its another round repeated I can’t be found to feed em
If I fool around and cheated or on the ground defeated
Or just bounce like he did when the semen’s secreted
When I speak of these demons I’m just reaching for meaning
I just look in a mirror whenever I need to see’em
You loved my mother it was plain to see
It was amazing to me how you could raise her seed
And that seed was me, wanted to see me succeed
So when I was jobless and so lazy indeed
we used to cut grass together in the blazing heat
you would mow and weed wack and I would edge and sweep
and the crazy thing is you was already working
in fact im certain that your back was hurting
what a sacrifice for a kid that wasn’t acting right
leave in the morning wouldn’t even come back at night
but now I’m grown as a man and I respect you dad
cause of you I know I can stand and confess to bad
you built our home with your hands no questions asked
the love you shown to our fam were so blessed to have
I just wanted to thank you for everything you’ve done
For our family and me I’m proud to be your son
