Mom, dad I’m getting over my anger ‘cause I understand now, I didn’t understand nothin’ at all And I probably still don’t Except maybe for this.... I do love you! You are my superstar You inspire me, by being who you are You spoke so many words so true I realize now I owe so much to you Tried to plan my escape in so many ways Been counting all the hours in my endless kiddie days Waiting for the chance to prove to you I can do it better then you did or ever will do But then the day came I saw I don’t know sh** Things comin’ my way I have a hard time dealin’ with But in my low low downs I learned what I know now How did you do? How did you pull through? I’m not even half way of where you got to You are my superstar You inspire me, by being who you are You spoke so many words so true I realize now I owe so much to you Hey you there living somewhere far away I blamed you ‘cause you wouldn’t give me any time of day You left me turned your back on your family The love I had for you became you getting no respect from me But then the day came, I saw the man in you Ain’t it senseless to keep blame I guess you did what you thought you had to do

I apologize!

You had something, next to that... I ain’t got nothing going on Except excuses to my unborn kid [that] I [just] couldn’t carry on You are my superstar You inspire me, by being who you are You spoke so many words so true I realize now I owe so much to you You are my superstar You inspire me, by being who you are You spoke so many words so true I realize now I owe so much to you
