Old Man
My old man ain’t around anymore,
He died of a heart attack all alone.
It’s a **** shame, I know.
I hardly remember his voice anymore.
I remember when he broke his leg crabbing,
We got to ride in an ambulance.
Id do it again just to hear you say,
Everything is gunna be ok.
My old man wasn’t lying,
When he said this world was harsh.
I’ve been burnt enough times,
To hold that **** close to my heart.
I didn’t plan on this pain,
That love leaves behind.
It’s a stain I can’t erase.
I try my best to keep this pace.
My old man would say,
**** what they say.
Just do your best and be true.
I love him, I know he loved me too.
I remember the call.
From my mom saying he wouldn’t wake up.
**** that day.
Nothing was the same.
I never saw the old man again.
His face is burned in my head.
I remember everything,
He told me, till this day.
