letra de father - alltta

[chorus]
there was a time i thought i’d be famous
before i knew what famous was
there was a time i thought i’d be famous
i thought i’d be famous
there was a time i thought i’d be famous
before i knew what famous was
there was a time i’d wish everybody knew my name
before i even knew what my name was

[verse 1]
i went from a full-time father to a part-time father
to almost no time in no time
father from afar, feelin’ even farthеr than a star
but like a star, i’ll always follow where you arе
lost in an empty nest, there’s a force in the emptiness
fills you with worth, but of course, leaves you sentenceless
even when you settle out of court
you know divorce is never sentenceless
i want from a stay-at-home dad to a sacronym without a home
i’m fillin’ up an old air mattress in any empty flat
knowin’ that at 4 a.m., it’s flat again
there’s a hole somewhere, and i can’t patch it
and i’m askin’ myself, “why don’t i pray to god?”
where is jesus? and could he patch me in?
and i told him i’m afraid of the sadness i made
and i beg for my son that it’s not passed to him
[chorus]
there was a time i thought i’d found true love
before i knew what was true with love
i thought i’d found true love
i thought i’d found true
there was a time i thought i’d found true love
before i knew what was true with love
time and time again, all i thought i knew
would come to remind me it ain’t true at all

[post-chorus]
father from afar, feeling even farther than a star
though like a star, i’ll always follow where you are

[verse 2]
how can i pastor him when i’m so low on faith?
havin’ to face time, so you won’t know my face
harder to face time when there’s just so much sp-ce
between you and i, well, you will know my place
i got a five-hour train, swallowin’ my pain
shakin’ hands with the other man i wanna blame
all i ever wanted was to be a father
and i didn’t even know it until i said your name
toys around the bath, echos of your laugh
every vacation, everything is in its place
i am your father, i am half of what you made of
even if right now i can’t get half of our days
no, it’s quality, not quantity
for love is not commodity
a daddy is an honor, not a paystub
and though i hate what has happened
let not hate be a distraction
for the fact that you were made in love
let’s go
[chorus]
there was a time i thought i’d be famous
before i knew what famous was
there was a time i’d wish everybody knew my name
before i even knew what my name was
there was a time i thought i’d found true love
before i knew what was true with love
time and time again, all i thought i knew
would come to remind me it ain’t true at all

[post-chorus]
father from afar, feeling even farther than a star
though like a star, i’ll always follow where you are
