Fashawn - Father lyrics

[Intro] They say everything you go through in life makes life worth living But if the world should end tomorrow... I often think about that sometimes, know what I'm saying? [VERSE 1] I'll take the pain and the strife I know it's not in vain And struggle relate to everything in this life I'm maintaining became a beam of light for the youth in the streets Intertwining with goons never complaining cuz its all written Don't be bitter we all sinners Lusting for the good life, some hearts cold as December Hiding behind stripes and stars Father forgive um Earth out of her mind look what she had to witness I talk to her at times she tell me what's on her heart I tell her what's on my mind Momma where do I start? Why everybody divided? Why people afraid to die? She told me "talk to ya Father, he's in the sky." [VERSE 2] Father why everybody complaining bout what they got? Ungrateful, they don't see what you gave um? Make a lump sum of money start to thinking they made it He said if you pay attention to the weather I'm jaded It could be mid July and I feel like raining Any day of the year I shed a tear Poppa amazing One drop could flood the block there's no one greater And that's why I live in the sky No lie, I'm fly, defy gravity, I reply damn It's like you only show yourself to the wise I know why you won't let me come home Left me here on my own cuz I ain't doing my job so you just letting me roam He responded "correct" go home to my mom I'm vexed She the reason for my drama and stress, you seem to love her Remember though, she the present but I'm forever Won't be long till you see us together I replied until than... [Hook] Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down Then that's what its gonna be Then that's what its gonna be
