I loved him dearly, more than I loved myself.
It’s supposed to be this way, he said it was for my own health.
But as I got older it just didn’t feel right.
With him taking pictures, rubbing and touching me all night.
Then I told him to stop or that I would tell.
That’s when my whole life was turned into a living hell.

No more outside, no more seeing the light of day.
When people came over he said I’d had moved away.
He locked the doors, beat me up and took away my food.
He had his way with me, the worst was when he was in a good mood.
He said that he loved me and hoped I understood.
He promised I wouldn’t get away but I just knew I would.

One night he was drunk and left the door cracked.
I busted out of there running and didn’t look back.
I was so happy that for the first time in years I saw light.
And now that I broke away I can start a new life.
I planned to forget my past and what he did to me.
Because for the first time in my life I was finally free.

Never had my pops, he was never around.
He was always on the road, always out of town.
But when he did come through he was acting crazy.
Mama said he was a fool getting caught up with the ladies.
He’d might stop by and throw me a dollar or something.
It wasn’t really much but it was better than nothing.
When he was gone I was supposed to be the man of the house.
Ready to take on anybody but was scared of a mouse.

He used to make fun of me, said it was going to make me tough.
I did a lot of things for him but it was never enough.
All the kids my class said they were going to be like their fathers.
But not me, I never had one, because mind didn’t bother.
He once said he was going to take me fishing.
And when that day came up he went missing.
On my birthday I waited up for him all night.
Mama said go to bed because he was getting high as a kite.

He did a lot of bad things but I can’t ask him to be something he’s not.
Because that’s my dad and it’s the only one I got.

Every night I go to bed
Thinking of all that’s done and said
If I had just one wish to get back the lost part of me
I’d take you back in time and make you see
I’m not what you’re mistaking me to be
You and me together is all I wanna see
Baby, I know you don’t wanna hear
But all I do right now is swear
That I never meant to hurt you
Never to see you cry
How is it that you don’t see
How much i try…

You’re gone,
Yet here I am.
All alone,
Suffering.

I tried my best
To go on without you,
And the worst part is,
That you still love me, too.

You are gone,
But our love is still there.
I was wrong,
And I’m now in despair.

Yet, in all of my sadness, I’ve found,
That though my feet are truly bound,
Life goes on; we have to keep moving.
To me, this is something that’s worth proving.

Forever I’ll love you.
That is the truth.
But I have to keep going
With or without you.

I don’t wanna be in blue
I just wanna be with you,
I don’t think I’m a fool,
Cos being with you is so cool.

I know I’m just a simple guy
And to you I can’t lie,
You’re my dream girl
And the one who can make my world twirl.

You’re my better half
And with you, I’m willing to live my life.
Through my ups and downs, you’re my guiding light
And I promise you, I will always be at your side.

You’re all that I need
You’re all that I want
Please be with me
Until the end of time

Baby you’re my everything,
Come to me and feel my heart beating
It only screams out your name,
That’s why baby I only want to say is “I LOVE YOU”

You’re so far away,
But when I close my eyes
I can still feel the way you held me.
I can still feel your lips on mine
I can still hear your voice whisper,
I love you.

I can’t stop thinking about you,
And I tried after you left.
I tired to get over you,
But I compared every guy I was with to you.
I put away your picture,
But found myself taking it out to look at you.

I found you in every thing that I did,
Even though I never tried too.
I convenience myself that you didn’t love me,
But I couldn’t stop loving you.

And the one thing
I hope you will always know
That no matter what
I love you.

These days are getting harder and harder
having to see you with your girlfriend
and not with me is hurting me
I don’t understand why you like girls
that Break your heart constantly
but don’t like the girls who wouldn’t break you
but I guess that’s how you work but I hope you
decide to like a girl who loves you back
and wouldn’t want to break your heart
