{Verse 1]
Wake up, by this mic [?]
Come to visit for a minute
I heard you've been admitted ’cause your liver's gonna give in
I told you if you didn't quit this shit you’re gonna kick it
And if it wasn't drugs then the drinking would've did it
Still I ain't here to lecture you
I know I've done enough of that
I'm here to say I love you still
I'm hoping that you'll love me back
All that stuff at pointing tracks [?]
It’s because I’ve just been mad
The way you didn't raise me man
You ain’t been good enough a dad
I don't hate you but it's just the facts
I shouldn't have to be ashamed of you, but I am
It’s easier to blame when you're in pain
But I don't understand why you having a baby
Didn't make you try to become a man
It wouldn't be the same if you were taking up another path
What would it take for you to change?
I always wondered that
Now I see you as your life
You never stood a chance
But bringing up the past ain't gonna get my mother back
[Pre-Chorus]
As you laying in your hospital bed
Going over what the doctor has said
You offered your apologies and
I said don't worry and to follow you said:
[Chorus]
"I didn't want you to see me like this
I never knew this town was so small
Back when I didn't even exist
I thought you weren't around here no more"
[Verse 2]
The day I met my son it really sunk in
I ask myself "How come you didn't love me like I love him?"
Did you not get the same feeling inside
From my eyes is a [?] his the minute I look in
Similar footprints and never leaving his life
Like the ones left in mind from the figure I put my trust in
Tell me why you'd let the drugs win?
Wasn't there something that said that I was a good thing?
I think it's time you started telling me the truth
About what happened in the past that was so terrible to you
To leave a family behind
And live a life that was heroin infueled
[Feel free to finish it off]
[Pre-Chorus]
As you laying in your hospital bed
Going over what the doctor has said
You offered your apologies and
I said don't worry and to follow you said:
[Chorus]
"I didn't want you to see me like this
I never knew this town was so small"
Back when I didn't even exist
I thought you weren't around here no more
