A cold heart is heavier To be numb is impossible Ignorance is for cowards I’m not a machine I am deeply feeling it Like a prodigal, walking away Your feet away from us Your head on the other side Your hands withhold Everyday has become my daily struggle Not to hate you Not to blame you Not to curse you Not to despise you. For the world cannot amend The truth shall remain After all, you're still my father Thus, I’m holding on to what has left To what I assume is admirable I heard you’re a kind man.

Ode to My Father
A cold heart is heavier To be numb is impossible Ignorance is for cowards I’m not a machine I am deeply feeling it Like a prodigal, walking away Your feet away from us Your head on the other side Your hands withhold Everyday has become my daily struggle Not to hate you Not to blame you Not to curse you Not to despise you. For the world cannot amend The truth shall remain After all, you're still my father Thus, I’m holding on to what has left To what I assume is admirable I heard you’re a kind man.
