Kero1 - Father lyrics

[Chorus: Suhn] Father, would you be there for me... Father, I know you'll be there for me... [Verse 1: Kero One] You brought her into this world as a labor pain Her father wanted to leave put her on layaway Just a little mistake from his player days But her mom wanted to keep her and see her babies face.. Throughout her life, her dad would come and go Get locked up in jail, then get out off on bail Back to sniffing coke, skiing those bunny slopes But the fresh white snow would always leave a trail And his girl grew up before he knew it Trying be a human, but he kind of blew it Too late, to fake his role, today She grew, to hate her dad, touché And now she's having a child her own With a man manned with qualities she's never known All grown, she's having a child her own With a man that'll show her what fathers are for [Chorus: Suhn] Father, would you be there for me... Father, I know you'll be there for me... [Verse 2: Kero One] And then you brought their child to this world, through c section Not the original plan, so she's stressing Her man squeezed her hand, to be present Reminding her she's not alone in this second A beautiful boy, of course he is There's no way they could fathom him in an orphanage So he grew up, loved, cared and His parents fought in the basement to spare him Highly respectable, shouting was a rare thing Speaking the human way, like how are you today? Around the dinner table, they could communicate Far from a television to stare in But years pa** the dinner table has lost its polish Fathers hairs turned grey, while son was off in college Talking decreased, he wasn't often calling His son became a man of his own yo His father deceased now he's commanding the throne Tears trickled slow, embraced the cheeks of his bone Showered with guilt he spent weeks all alone Wishing father was here to witness his poem...it goes [Chorus: Suhn] Father, would you be there for me... Father, I know you'll be there for me... [Verse 3: Kero One] You brought me into this world as a labor pain Neighbors came with gifts in this babies name Moms carried the burden for 9 months And when I'd kick and punch, you couldn't take her pain away Hopes and dreams for your child its the strangest day Though you hoped for the best you'd let me stray away With the choice to choose, you let me view The world, through a wide angle lens I think it's safe to say The love of a father who cared deeply Who knew justice would come when thieves beat me Who felt the pain of my woes, but let me fall so I'd grow Keeping me on my toes, just to teach me And all along u knew med school wouldn't work for me Knowing I'd burn emcees with more degrees than PhD You knew those school kids would be a jerk to me But it made me strong, did you use sin purposely? And I confess to some degree my uncertainty I know there's nothing worse than one's unbelief But when I fell, you're hands was always under me When I acted invincible, you always did humble me You're all knowing, just and perfect I wish it could be simple so we'd see below the surface Giving us meaning, direction, and purpose The only father since birth, heaven and earth [Chorus: Suhn] Father, would you be there for me... Father, I know you'll be there for me...
