Ereezy - A Son Never Forgets

Son I've neva tried to hold you down
I was trying to groom ya mind for the crown
Yeah heavy is the head who wears it but IF
Ye prepares for it, won't nobody come for da crown
Jr to da heir but why would you even care
To listen to man that wasn't even there
The day i packed my bags and said I solemnly swear
Oath was more for you and your brother not Sam
To serve and protect my country and not you was a choice
That'll haunt me til ma days are through
Had I chose to stay and couldn't provide
Went to da dark side sold drugs or homicides, yo life
I'm talk'n Same year just months apart another life to keep close to ma heart
Lord knows for days and months
I tried to get ya moms ta compromise with you living wit me on the westside
Neva did she budge, but it neva stopped tha love
Or the flights back and forth, just to show you your worth
I know words will never bring your heart or mind to see
How much I wish I had you there with me, Lord knows tha truth
The heart of ma pack, loves all before himself
Ain't no way I can even pretend, just know
Son to me... you will always share a bond with me
I don't think will eva compare
Tha day i watched you graduate and hit da road to drive
I swear you felt tha tears held in ma eyes and then
You called and cried, I parked and sighed after that tha longest ride of my life
I can neva take away tha pain stuck in ya heart
Just know for every end there's a line to start
If I could pause the pain, replay tha happiness
I'd keep it on repeat til tha day that I'm gone To my third son, word is born
Neva thought I'd see the day my sons a sailor bags packed and he's underway
Did he follow in tha steps of his pops if not gotta man up
Swallow pride, give credit and props
You were young when you left my side underway
Came back found ya moms had died
Grand parents took you, But lord knows I tried
Hired PIs, til this day glad I kept that drive alive
You were a part of me. Would have searched skies
Road and seas until the day i had you next to me
I hope you see time lost is only in a dream
And find a way to rebound and bond with me
I beg of thee
They say the last cuts deep
I see tha pain in ya eyes you were young when we said goodbye
Only two but tha truth is that you knew back
Then that farewell would surely come to change both of our lives
Your moms and I, couldn't find a compromise
So a divorce is how tha road took course
Not proud as a man cause you deserved much more than
To see just your mom in tha stands every time you score
I hope as time goes by, you understand the right from wrong and
If the love don't last, steady course and sail on know
It doesn't mean I never loved or told you a lie
Just means I did my best, still failed but tried
