Hey dad
I'm contemplating,.
Focusing on understanding.
And explanation, looking for any reason
To excuse you for abandoning me,
Cause I know it ain't me
I spent to long blaming me
Asking God why does my dad hate me
I liked Garfield, cause he ain't got a dad too
I thought Garfield was like me and his dad was like you
But his dad was only trying to provide something you would never do,
he seen someone better could take Garfield,
They were at the bottom of the hill and that man took him uphill
He shoved all his feelings deep down, said now my son would grow up like he has a crown
You ain't do that though, it's not like you ain't have a choice,
they said do this and do that then you can rejoice, looked me dead in my eyes saying hey man I love you but no fucking way
Moral of the story you're not like Garfield's dad, he was fucking awesome and you're just fucking sad
