I'm sorry Julian, I know you wanted a dad
I didn't wanna be another stereotype just to add
Another black kid without a father
I hope someday you can get a lot farther
We can't toss the old pig skin or let me teach you how to ride a bike
We can't watch movies together
Or talk about girls you like,
We can't watch the game and comment on players
I'm sorry I'm not there
Forgive me.... that'll make life better
And I'm sorry to Janelle
My little fall from heaven that smiled oh so well
The little angel with her mom's color and attitude
My thoughts and knack for being rude
I'm sorry I can't buy you dolls
Or host sleep overs at the house
I'm sorry I couldn't comb your hair or see you grow into a bride
I'm sorry I can't be there
And it's not because I'm scared
Let your brother take care of you and never let your heart tear......
And finally Jenett
I'm sorry for this mess
You were a baby when this happened I'm sorry I put you through it
You had my looks
And her smile.... my laugh like
Goofy I could have stood awhile. ....
I love you children..... I betrayed you lot... I wanted you so bad I would say a lot
.... and as I tear up on the spot
ACS will take you away... guess ima bad father... I wasn't meant for it anyway.... lord knows what your mother's doing.... but I can't tell you guys.... I'm one of those parents who can't stand to see his kids cry..... so I'll try to visit on weekends..... I'll drop by after school because one day I want yall to say that " our dad is so cool"...... stay safe
