letra de redemption - ray rife
this one right here is based on a true story
no names
just know i feel your pain yo
[verse 1]
wake up in the morning hardly can get out the bed
still haunted by her everlasting fears
of her father leaving and not wanting the same for her child
so every joy is overshadowed by the tears
smiles and make up cover up pains of a compliment
she knows they mean no harm
but every time she’s praised she prays for more stars
and to lay in the arms of the one that gave her the bump
another deadbeat father walking the pavement
since she got pregnant her family retracting statements
growing up all she knew was that they’d be there through the thick and thin
but soon as pressure thickened family love got thin they left her thin
giving birth to a child she wishes she had aborted
not because she don’t want em
motherhood can’t afford it
feeling obligated for that life so she gives him up
and cries herself to sleep for years
can’t forgive herself
[hook]
she misses him
she misses him
she misses him
and even though she has a life
she’ll give up anything just to look in his eyes
she misses him
she misses him
she misses him
its been so many years
another lonely mother tryna swim through her tears
she misses him
[verse 2]
was once wealthy off love now he don’t wanna
single for some years, but still doing his numbers
yet every time he penetrates he almost hyperventilates
afraid the condom breaks and replays a past mistake
of leaving his woman alone crying
got a seed out there to father but he ain’t trying
to feed him, nah
to make it worse he still don’t wanna meet him, yea
it’s just the world that we live in
its nothing new, cowards will act a fool
then act like its nothing son starving as he stuntin
play it off to his boys like inside it ain’t hurting him
his dad did the same, now his son he deserted him
at night he look up, sippin on cheaper liquor
with his boy wanna pick up but too much damage to pick up
over time the thoughts start to burning up inside him
because his only legacy is growing up without him
[hook 2]
he misses him
he misses him
he misses him
and even though he never met him
he wants to be a father even if its just a second
he misses him
he misses him
he misses him
swore to never be like
the guy that left him but hes of the same kind
he misses him
[verse 3]
every dream he has he feel like he see his mother
knows he adopted but treat his brother like a brother
his best friend since birth, can’t deny that
though the blood ain’t the same in their veins their bond is timeless, oh
thirteen, youngin in the 8th grade on the b-ball team
in the city made a name for himself
and didn’t even need his father help
from his biological, all obstacles he excels but
he wishes to meet the woman that brought him here
a smart kid he understands why she left him there
doesnt even know he in for a shocker
his parents set it up for him to meet his real momma
amongst the celebration of his last game sees the woman of his dreams
same tears falling down her cheek
runs to give a hug, not a word for him to speak
as cuh from verse 2 can only watch from the seats
