Verse 1: Even though you never wanted all this in the first place yo it don't work like that Nothing that you ever could've done could've made another hurt like that They could never hurt you back, you could have a broken back Still wouldn't match the broken hearts they have Could've been the best feeling that you ever had But you never knew what they getting at Now its done with its all gone Whatever you are now you were never dad You were never at those days on those special occasions Never realised what it meant what might mean to your little angels Now when they look back they don't see what you went through All they see is pain and photographs without you Insane thinking they even made it without you So Crazy knowing they be better off without you If you were raising your kids instead of raising your fists Then you may not have have missed how amazing she is But the greatest thing is, when she smile with those lips She's a radiant gift that I'm grateful exists (Chorus): See my baby girl could've been your baby girl as well Tell me why you wanna miss the beautiful things your baby do so well Verse 2: There was darkness living inside her, she was guarded living in doubt No father figure to guide her, meant it was hard to figure it out It was torture sitting beside her trying to work through that stuff It took everything I had inside just to re-establish that trust Early on I was convinced she didn't like me too much The way that she was occasionally avoiding my touch Pretty soon it became clear what she feared it was not us She was longing for the love, which you'd forgotten to give up For these things that were killing you These are things you instilled in your children and All these things they are still in your children they killing Your children They're colouring the very world that your children are living in now Stuck with a heavy load walking alone on this load looking, for a landmark their know and its dragging em down And that's why, she makes me so proud, when she smiles and she dances refusing to drown (Chorus) Verse 3: You know she don't owe you nothing right That ain't stop you showing up when you need something right When you don't get it you be getting violent So despite her all her strength your violent, she be fragile and frightened Phoning me late at night, broken and terrified Calling me over but you were gone by the time I arrived It was not the first and it wouldn't be the last time I would try to pretend I could provide what she was pining for It was that which eventually broke us apart Now I'm just one more man that's broken her heart Should've known from the start, should've been cautious Should have been more careful more gentle when deciding to move forward But I went for it never mind yo its unimportant All that really matters now is the time we spent in the fortress And the more that I look back, the less I would take back Except that which is all on your hands, damn Bridge: Left to fend for herself, she was only a child You protected her only when it suited your means Means the message you sent her, was clouded confused Fused her lessons with questions when answers were few (Chorus)
