Charlie - Gunman lyrics

HOOK: You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine VERSE 1: As a child I climbed trees and flew kites I played and lived I was driven , motivated & inspired But as a man , I became a witness to destruction Failure is not an option and success is scripted If I fail at this life, People would said “I knew he wouldn't Make it ” Should I succeed? They will still say “I knew he would make it ”so I'm afraid, the double standards,double talk and hypocrisy that govern us So i refuse to be my old version! i refuse to look into the mirror everyday and see the same person i saw yesterday! I'm a living proof I exposed myself to the possibility of failure to achieve the greatest results This is for the homeless roaming on the street This is for the hopeless trying get up on their feet This is broken home deeper than rap music This is for the shattered hearts no lights ever revealed This is for my family who has been splits apart , Emma and Jeanine I still got you in my heart tell daddy regardless the distance I still care happiness was limited living among hate I could not bare HOOK : You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine VERSE 2 : You can call it's okay it alright we brothers Let's move on na carry on Reality hit us The spirit of my family has been teared apart All the love is gone man I grew up with the bleeding heart Drinking here, smoking there, my life is hard to share Single mom ,rich dad a self made millionaire Cold night and broken soul , thoughts of suicide But in my eyes I realized I'll be criticized What's life without fatherhood affection Ten fingers on the bible this my true confession The truth I hold took years to unfold locked up and never told tongue against my chest, you can imagine the rest But this is the past HOOK You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine POST HOOK I always knew (I always knew) that you would follow your big Dreams What I didn't know (I didn't know) is that your dreams never Did include me VERSE 3: Look in my eyes i can tell you have a big dream Stay focused and never give up you could be the next king Don't let your dreams remain just dreams Remember what is born of the mind can easily come to life if you believe This is for you noella and my familia , I made this for all victims of broken homes Sometimes we must get hurt in order to grow, we must fail in order to know,sometimes our vision clears after our eyes are washed away with tears
