A dead the man want what fi dead so him can get wi off him head
It's heartless how it's said
What I say is what I see
his actions towards me

At seventeen
Someone had to wake me up from my dream
Came to realize I have been living in a fairytale world

At seventeen
Still living in the mind of a six year old girl

Who thought she had a Father figure
Who loved and Adore her

Thought he was her first mentor and teacher

Who taught her to aim for the highest
The sky
be the best
Like an Eagle you fly
When you fall
Rise above it all

You would always leave before the sun starts raising
Came in midnights
Leave Early mornings
I never cried I thought I understood why

Living a lie
A illusion
Up until seventeen
I was living that same dream

A dead the man want wi fi dead
So him can get wi off him head
It's heartless how it's said
What I say is what I see his actions towards me

Even though you lived do near
We only saw you twice in six years
You never supported, are provided
I need to ask did you even cared

At thirteen I was still living that same dream

Showed up to my graduation
All smiles
Walking down the aisle
Spotted him from a mile
Just from the glimmer in is eyes

I cried on the inside
Tears of joy
The first time
Seeing him for a long while

On to the next phase
The next stage
Where everything
Slightly changed
Started providing
When mom wasn't working
What he had, what he could be not what he should

Thought he would have been that dad
I never had
Making that fairytale a reality

Craving your presence in my life
Your attention
Calling just to hear your voice
Your likes and dislikes I never knew
Or anything about you
And that's the truth

I don't need self pity
Your sympathy
Don't need to say sorry please forgive me
Your forgiven

I have no regrets
It's made me
who I am
who I was
and who I will become

Moving forward
Be that dad my sister never had
