(Verse 1)
Sometimes I get a good feeling, a nice wheeling
Now appealing, but electric eeling
Those days have gone so fast
That's the reason, their in the past
And all I have are these dreams to cast
R.I.P to those who past
Don't leave now, or I will miss you
But please come back, so I can kiss you
Down from heaven is all I want
But these pictures yo they just taunt
And I don't know where I've been
But you don't know what the f** I've seen
I lost my father, my only idol
The legendary Richard Bridle
Back to the days where we pretend
Just a father? No. My best friend
When he left my mind would mend
And I thought that day would never end
I was a kid, and what I did, I used his memories as a lid
To seal, these feelings I feel
I thought to myself word keep it real
Cuz in the house I was the only guy
And ever since than I've been quite shy
But I run away, and I know why, He's the only reason I cry
And I know he's with me all the time
And that's what I use to keep my head inline, but don't worry about me
I'll be fine, but look at me still I shine
And the next time you ask about how I'm feeling, does it really matter?
No. It's just a feeling
(Verse 2)
All I did, was go out, but when I did my mum she'd shout
She'd get mad, and I'd get worried
I'd leave even faster I'd be hurried
Than I'd grab my deck and than head for the door
But then she yelled “I can't do this no more”
I eventually realized all she did was care
She just wants to have her son their
Cuz I was the one who reminded her of dad
I had something that my sisters never had
Than my new best friend became my own mother
Not just friend, more an older brother
Cuz so much, from her I'd learn, and I never really asked for anything in return
Cuz she always fed me, and made my meals
And I never really thought about the way she feels
She lost him to, her only lover
And now I stand here, and watch her suffer
And I know they started this family together
And I know their love will now go on forever
And I'm sorry sometimes I'm a stupid f**ing snob
Remember mum you're still doing a good job
I'm raising us well, and making us feel safe
And be the one to bring us take us from last, back into first place
And I'm trying my best, and I hope you've seen it
And I'm thanking you now, and I really do mean it
I don't say this often and I'm sorry I don't
But I better start now or I probably won't
But my friends are always there to talk to
They know I'm strong and they know I fought through
They have told me, that I'm a tough guy
Maybe it's because I never really cry
Cuz I try to keep it in, and hide my emotions
Cuz I'm always on the go, I'm always in motion
Cuz I'm the one to run away from fear
But I'm just afraid of shedding a tear
And I don't think I have literally all year
But I just want my daddy here
I just want, I just want,
I just want my daddy here
(Verse 3)
I make music because it helps me think
It takes me away to that special place
The place where I have no bad things to face
And when I think I'm doing it wrong
I know my dad will be cheering me on
And that's the reason why I wrote this song
And I think to myself I'm his spitting image
Because now I have to live a life that he could never finish
