Dad I Can't Be Perfect


Hey Dad...

Did you know you used to be my hero

but its been hell not having you here

needing help with stuff but there is

no one else to turn to help

And you just wasting my time doing

things I wanna do

But what can I do  to make it better

It’s too late I can’t be  doing this

without you

And you don’t seem to care

about me

Is not good enough  to spent

time with me

you’re always far away  from

work

I’ve been missing you so bad  it really

hurts when you  never came for me

I don’t understand  why?

We have an agreement to deal with

Nothing’s gonna change  when its up

to you

I’m sorry

I JUST CAN’T BE PERFECT
