Daddy Hunger


My father is a selfish man

Just something that you should know

The pain inside is so deep something he doesn't wish to show

Even though he has a loving heart that part he is willing to share

The confusion in his mind is just to hard to bare

My dad is so embarassed because of previous actions he's done

I don't care about his past and I'm his only son

See my dad never had a father to tell him which way to go

So how is he going to teach me something he himself doesn't even know

I know simething is tugging at him something deep within

Sometimes his tears get's the best of him

His emotions is filled to the brim

Even though we are not on the best of terms

I love him with all my heart

Even drugs and alchol could never tear our relationship apart

I am always gonna love you dad whatever you say or do

Even when you gave me hell and what you put our family though

Our family will be together even though trails and tribulations 

They will see how strong we are

And spread it across the nation

Untill then I will stand and call you my dad

And promise father I will not stay mad

The Lord will be with us forever

Will I judge you for the mistakes you made

The answer will always be never
