Story behind the song
Made this song with my daughter. We never finished it. We took a break and never returned to it.
Lyrics
understand I wasn't a man before I was a father
I never planned my jam jelling with an egg and becoming my daughter
1,000 grand million little chances dances with angels yet I don't believe in God
I try to look at things at all angles and without façade
I step out my body every once in a while
I stop and appreciate her smile
squint in your eye one more day let me know I'm alive
strife in your life always passes and you always crash offa drugs so best stay fresh
or wind up picking lint up offa rugs
shrug off mistakes as long as its the last you make and learn from them
don't keep steppin on rakes
lifes fast remember your brakes when your driving lifes dangerous curves
or wind up on the curb or in a jail cell with alot of reverb
now I slur sometimes and if you too honey I'm sorry
I don't play games in life but I grew up with Atari
Now you can blame me for some stuff and yeah I gave you your green eyes
and i know your life is rough and darlin I've heard your cries
rise up for me during times when your knees buckle stand tall pick yourself up when you fall
don't drag your knuckles it makes you small
and even when everything seems like a nightmare keep your dreams
cuz even during the worst things ain't shit to bitch unless your 6 feet deep or in a hearse
life can't be reversed so don't curse about taking your life
refrain from suicide because even if you're feeling pain remember you're still alive
and there are those who ain't got it so whatever you got hold it tight
strife don't despise it cuz at least you got some and those who dead got none alright
