Father

(*Prod. by Exile)
[Intro:]
They say everything you go through in life makes life worth living
But if the world should end tomorrow...
I often think about that sometimes, know what Im saying?
[Verse 1:]
Ill take the pain and the strife
I know its not in vain
And struggle relate to everything in this life
Im maintaining became a beam of light for the youth in the streets
Intertwining with goons never complaining cause its all written
Dont be bitter we all sinners
Lusting for the good life, some hearts cold as December
Hiding behind stripes and stars Father forgive um
Earth out of her mind look what she had to witness
I talk to her at times she tell me whats on her heart
I tell her whats on my mind
Momma where do I start?
Why everybody divided?
Why people afraid to die?
She told me 'talk to ya Father, hes in the sky.'
[Verse 2:]
Father why everybody complaining bout what they got?
Ungrateful, they dont see what you gave um?
Make a lump sum of money start to thinking they made it
He said if you pay attention to the weather Im jaded
It could be mid July and I feel like raining
Any day of the year I shed a tear Poppa amazing
One drop could flood the block theres no one greater
And thats why I live in the sky
No lie, Im fly, defy gravity, I reply damn
Its like you only show yourself to the wise
I know why you wont let me come home
Left me here on my own cause I aint doing my job so you just letting me roam
He responded 'correct' go home to my mom Im vexed
She the reason for my drama and stress, you seem to love her
Remember though, she the present but Im forever
Wont be long till you see us together I replied until than...
[Chorus:]
Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me
And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down
Now if the world should end tomorrow, Lord have mercy on me
And if the sky should fall and the walls come tumbling down, tumbling down
Than thats what its gonna be
Than thats what its gonna be
