[00:31.07]You're still living through me
[00:33.71]Listen!
[00:35.21]Look, I lost my father to the bottle
[00:38.29]I'd hug him everyday like I might not see him tomorrow
[00:40.77]Got a little sorrow for a lifetime
[00:43.16]Cause when he was living I'm thinking how do I get him to listen
[00:45.56]When he was seldom in his right mind
[00:48.02]My early years I was too young to understand
[00:50.52]But I remember the smell of beer and seeing all the empty cans
[00:54.11]Waking up, crying in the night, hearing arguments
[00:57.41]Hands off my momma, somehow I knew he was the cause of it
[01:00.70]Got a little older and he got a little worse
[01:03.75]Drinking must be his remedy, he got a little cursed
[01:06.74]Well, tell me what's the cure for a man who miss his pops
[01:10.08]The beat goes on, but the drinking's gotta stop!
[01:12.26]If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow
[01:18.44]I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey
[01:25.01]But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow
[01:29.21]Wishing every day you were here with me
[01:31.48]But now that you're gone, I lost my heart to the bottle, to the bottle
[01:38.25]Ooh oh oh
[01:39.11]Yeah, I lost my father to the bottle
[01:41.97]Function and alcoholics what they call it far as I know
[01:45.31]Became a teenager and started to understand
[01:48.39]But even through drinks he still taught me to be a man
[01:51.41]So before the hospital, when the paramedics rest him
[01:54.82]He knew that everybody who met him, instantly loved him
[01:58.11]I run the con concerts? Would have made him even sicker
[02:01.08]Cause who gon' tell him he can't drink none of his son's liquor
[02:04.22]And tell me without my father how am I supposed to manage?!
[02:07.60]He had the biggest heart, but also had that liver damage
[02:10.81]Tell me what's the cure for a man who miss his paps
[02:13.97]The beat goes on, but the drinking' gotta stop!
[02:16.00]If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow
[02:22.48]I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey
[02:29.12]But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow
[02:33.21]Wishing every day you were here with me
[02:35.25]But now that you're gone, I lost my heart to the bottle, to the bottle
[02:42.35]Ooh oh oh
[02:45.29]Not a day goes by that I don't miss ya, and don't wish you were here with me
[02:52.54]No matter what you did, I forgive you!
[02:56.79]I lost my father to the bottle
[02:58.64]Tell your parents you love 'em
[03:00.24]You might not see them tomorrow!
[03:01.67]I swallow my pride, try to put my problems aside
[03:04.37]But I feel so hollow inside
[03:05.87]Gotta keep my eyes on the prize
[03:07.62]Cause I'm steady wishing you were here
[03:09.51]To see the goals that I plan to reach
[03:12.02]You left the day after I put you into my Grammy speech
[03:15.12]It's almost like you waited just to see me win
[03:17.97]Well, pops I can't wait untill the day we meet!
[03:20.14]If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow
[03:26.67]I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey
[03:32.83]But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow
[03:37.16]Wishing every day you were here with me
