I never really knew you,
You were with my mom
and I simply am your bastard son.
Some part of me though,
always wanted to know you.
What kinda man you are,
how you smelled...
how you combed your hair.
But mostly i hated you
how could you have been gone for so long?
Mom went days and days crying herself to bed
I was there, I was there to hear it all.
I hated my face because every time she saw it
It was you she saw.
She hid it well but i could always see the tears
even if they flow from her broken heart.
Even now my eyes water,
cause some how I grew up to be just like you.
Well at least not completely,
I never quite fu**ed anyone else over quite like you.
In a way I am a better man
better then you could ever be.
I am strong, loyal and devoted,
I did all standing on my own two feet.
I never asked you for any of your millions,
I worked hard and did all with the sweat of my labor
Hard work, something you may not really understand
If its hard for you, you just leave and abandon
a woman with your child so that she can do it all alone.
Its been 24 years and I still hear her cry those tears.
The ones that refuse to fall because she wanted to be there for me.
after all, all you did was leave me.
So father, your my father in name only.
You weren't a role model,
Not a hero, your only concern
is only "what benefits you"
and that won't be me.
I refuse to be like you anymore then I have to be.
