Verse 1:
how should i start this another years past
i'm wondering where's dad cuz i need him here fast
i wanna talk to you and let you kno what's goin on
it's been a tough year even though i been strong
so let me fill you in on whats been happening in my life
i did a couple shows while rapping on the mic
i wish you coulda seen them but i knew you was watching
everytime i write i just think of you often
from piano to guitar you were there pushing me
i'm here all alone and i'm speaking musically
if it wasn't for you probably wouldn't have happened
i'm good at this rapping even though you would laugh when
i played them songs loud and i thought it was cool
now i have an undestanding it's my honor to you
see i wouldn't have been this man if you didn't raise me
i wish you were here, cuz i'm thinkin about you daily

Hook x2:
It's been too long (what do i do)
I been so strong (dad i miss you)
I wanna know why! did you have to go
I wanna know why! am i all alone

Verse 2:
at times i'm doing things wrong and they hurt me
but this is how i've learned pain will always irk me
i found this all out in the hardest way possible
when you went away was my largest obstacle
i'm battling everyday but you can't even notice
i feel so hopeless i know how to cope with
my anger sweat and tears cuz of people helping me
talking to my mom and brother they alawys dealt with me
selfishly i never saw it now it's all crystal clear
wanna thank you both cuz you made the picture clear
been a tough 8 years you've helped me suceed
from a selfish foolish teen to a healthy human being
i know he's looking down and he must be proud of us
so high in the sky sitting in a cloud of dust
you'll always live on no matter what took place
and that smile on your face it can't ever be replaced

Hook x2:
It's been too long (what do i do)
I been so strong (dad i miss you)
I wanna know why! did you have to go
I wanna know why! am i all alone

Verse 3:
i didnt even think i make it to the third verse
if you hear it in my voice you can tell these words hurt
i'm pushing myself so i can finish this up
thought of giving it up at times i'm living in dust
but i brushed it all away cuz i knew you wouldn't let me
upsets me especially you ain't here to help me
come a long way so i gotta stay positive
dunno wat the logic is but i'ma keep on conquering
honoring your name to the best of my ability
wanna make sure that you're resting so happily
keep smiling strong we'll take the rest from here
even though you left us here we been blessed for many years
i think we'll be ok just keep on watching us
make sure everythings ok cuz we miss you so much
yeah i know it's been too long but there's nothign i can do
ima keep moving through soon enough il'l be with you

Hook x4:
It's been too long (what do i do)
I been so strong (dad i miss you)
I wanna know why! did you have to go
I wanna know why! am i all alone
