I Should Let You Go

Like father, like daughter
That's what they say
But when they say that they don't know that you went away
A role model to a toddler, that's what you once were
But time had changed you, made you aimless
Now that's all a blur

Now I'm here without you
Tryna live up to you
But then you left me lost, standing here
Just tryna look for you

So now I know that I should let you go
But it's so hard when I still see your face in my dreams
Then I can't help but think that I've lost part of me
A part that can't be replaced, no matter who I try to be

And when they tell me you'll be proud today
Don't know what to say
So I just stand there
Put on a smile
Like it's okay

Yet the truth is that should be you
Telling me those words
But you're gone and never coming back
It's on me to move on

So now I know that I should let you go
But it's so hard when I still see your face in my dreams
Then I can't help but think that I've lost part of me
A part that can't be replaced, no matter who I try to be

And now you're in a better place, I'm sure
I hope you found what you've been searching for so long
Because I have found my place of peace
Friends to hold me when I'm feeling incomplete

So now I know that I should let you go
But it's so hard when I still see your face in my dreams
I no longer think that I've lost a piece of me
Because deep down I know
You're always right here with me
