Where was that man
To make you feel strong?
Where was that man
To teach you right from wrong?
Where was that man
When you were feeling so sad?
Where is that man
Who goes by the name "dad" ?
He's not a dad
He's a low life
A loser
Addicted to drugs
Come on dad
I just wanted a ******* hug
Is it really that hard to love your own daughter?
You just walked away
You forgot all about her
But you don't care
Its all about you
This is your fault
These are the cards that you drew
You made me feel worthless
You should have made me feel proud
But instead
You didn't make a sound.
So have fun popping your pills
Not paying any bills
I hope one day you'll see
What you could have
Made your life out to be
We could be happy dad
You and IĀ Ā 
But instead you tore my down and made me cry
And I don't do with tears
Tears are for the weak
But I just wanted your love and acceptance
That's all I truly seek
But its done its over the war had been won
So whatever you're doing wherever you are
I hope you are having fun
And maybe one day you look up to the sky
And you think of your children
You decided to leave behind
