Life Without My Father
Life without my father wasn't easy, don't you see?
I barely live my life as if hanging from a tree
My life has not been simple or without a flaw
I hope my father loved me more than I can recall
Life without my father made me feel strife, maybe if I
let him go I will finally feel life
Life may seem simple and I come across as calm,
inside there are emotions able to suffocate a psalm
Life without my father made me feel insecure,
maybe that is why I live with so much fear
Sadness lingers on, my soul feels hollow
making it almost impossible to smile
Life without my father make me super sad,
maybe that is why I always seem so mad
I hear the voice saying 'she is simple don't you know?
she doesn't have any sense and she is awfully slow
Life without my father made me lonely deep inside,
maybe I should have told him instead I chose to hide
Really I am sweet and kind and want the world to know
that life without my father made me insecure
Life without my father seemed impossible to fathom,
If I treat this man right maybe I can have him
I know that God loves me and is helping me on my way,
giving me strength. hope, and happiness to face another day
I barely live my life as if hanging from a tree
My life has not been simple or without a flaw
I hope my father loved me more than I can recall
Life without my father made me feel strife, maybe if I
let him go I will finally feel life
Life may seem simple and I come across as calm,
inside there are emotions able to suffocate a psalm
Life without my father made me feel insecure,
maybe that is why I live with so much fear
Sadness lingers on, my soul feels hollow
making it almost impossible to smile
Life without my father make me super sad,
maybe that is why I always seem so mad
I hear the voice saying 'she is simple don't you know?
she doesn't have any sense and she is awfully slow
Life without my father made me lonely deep inside,
maybe I should have told him instead I chose to hide
Really I am sweet and kind and want the world to know
that life without my father made me insecure
Life without my father seemed impossible to fathom,
If I treat this man right maybe I can have him
I know that God loves me and is helping me on my way,
giving me strength. hope, and happiness to face another day
