Here's to my desire to remember what he left. | |
But, there was no time for sentiment as he took his final breath. | |
I was not too broken to hope for a helping hand, but I had to fight to find it. | |
Eight years old is too young to become a man; I left my hope behind me. | |
I was just another angry kid, growing up without a dad. | |
So I sold my soul for the highest bid, to get the love I never had. | |
Tell me who I am. | |
A kid that turned to the world for identity. | |
I can hardly stand. | |
Trying to find myself, I confined myself. | |
Now I've come to see, it was never "me" I was looking for… | |
It was always Him, it was always Him. | |
Born from a broken home. | |
When my father died, I was left to find my way through life alone. | |
Left on my own, I put my pain on display as I fought with hatred and rage. | |
No son should ever have to face the world without the love of his father. | |
I faced the world alone. | |
I had no one to run to, and everything to run from. | |
I had no one to run to, and everything to run from. | |
I buried my hope in the ground. | |
Drowning, with no one to pull me out, sinking inside my head. | |
I was just another angry kid growing up without a dad, | |
So I sold my soul for the highest bid to get the love I never had. | |
Tell me who I am. | |
A kid that turned to the world for identity. | |
I can hardly stand. | |
Trying to find myself, I confined myself. | |
Now I've come to see, it was never "me" I was looking for… | |
It was always Him, it was always Him. | |
Tell me who I am. | |
I can hardly stand. | |
Now I've come to see, it was never "me" I was looking for… | |
It was always Him, it was always Him. |
Here' s to my desire to remember what he left. | |
