Heartbroken
Rest In Peace, Dad
We didn't get along, rapping's all we ever had
I rap for him, I don't care, I'll say it loud
I wanted one thing in life; to make my father proud
I never got to say goodbye, didn't have a chance to cry
Cuz I was full of shock, just looking up at the sky
I stopped looking up, but I know he's looking down
When I write about him, I can feel he's still around
The last time I saw him was Christmas 2012
But I had no idea, it was all reindeers and elves
If he said he's gonna die, trust I wouldn't ever believe him
But if I could see into the future, then I wouldn't ever leave him
They say you only love someone when they gone
Well that's a waste of breath, cuz they so, so wrong
Who are you again to judge who I love?
Right now, I'm at my lowest, but I'm still so above
With my mom down here, and my dad up there
She always here for me, she always gonna care
People say I'm trash, there's nothing to see in me
Shoutout to Mom and Marc, they really do believe in me
Ima make it one day, that day is coming soon
I truly got a vision, win a Grammy for my tunes
I'm not yet at my best, get better every day
If you don't want me at Grind, you don't deserve me with VA
You know? All those moments that we couldn't have? That just gives me fuel to become the greatest person I can be. And one day, Ima walk out of this world as the greatest person to have his name go down in the history books. And that's facts
I've been doubted all my life, I'm really getting sick of it
Remind me of my pops death? You really are ridiculous
I don't rap for the clout, I don't rap for the fame
I rap for my dad, reason always be the same
I still remember performing a couple years back
In my grandma's backyard, no one ever said "It's wack!"
Then my dad posted it on YouTube, thought I was going viral
200 Views is a lot as a child
I still remember that day, went home upset
When you saw your dad once a year, you never forget
Then on a Tuesday morning, my mom broke the news
I'm singing 'Heartbroken' for a tribute, not the views
"TT made a new song, when's it gonna drop?"
I can't even hear you, I'm talking to my pops
Our bond is strong, like a wallet made of leather
My dad never left, cuz family is forever
We didn't get along, rapping's all we ever had
I rap for him, I don't care, I'll say it loud
I wanted one thing in life; to make my father proud
I never got to say goodbye, didn't have a chance to cry
Cuz I was full of shock, just looking up at the sky
I stopped looking up, but I know he's looking down
When I write about him, I can feel he's still around
The last time I saw him was Christmas 2012
