Dear Father

Ebony Eyez, Capo (Trackboyz), Tarboy (Trackboyz)

[Chorus]
Dear Father, are you with me? (Are you with me?)
I just hope you don't forget me (Don't forget me)
I ain't askin' for no pity (Nah)
I just hope these prayers'll fix me (Fix me)
Dear Father, are you with me? (Are you with me?)
I just hope you don't forget me (Don't forget me)
I ain't askin' for no pity (Nah)
I just hope these prayers'll fix me

[Verse 1]
Say I don't walk right, I don't talk right
I don't eat right, I don't sleep right
What I do right? Who say you right?
Hell with do right, I'd rather do life
And by the way, pops, I ain't forgot about it
Hold my chin up, see I don't pout about it
And when I see you don't think I ain't thought about it
But you know how we do, we just talk around it
And my last partner, she done went astray
So when I see her in the club, I don't know what to say
I might be gone tomorrow, but I'm here today
And I guess that's all that really matter anyway
Tryna clear my mind, so I could write this rhyme
Been on the phone with my man and I know he lyin'
But at the same time, shit, I know he tryin'
At the same time, I know he's tryin'

[Chorus]
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me

[Verse 2]
Car leakin' oil, plus I need a muffler
Now that ain't no way to live for a maybe mother
Off to the clinic, I done missed my cycle
And my family wonder why I'm actin' spiteful
Test came back, sh-negative
I can't see myself dependin' on my relatives
Was a close call, but yet it's still
Need to call my aunt to help with my electric bill
And got no rest, too much stress
Mama called, said they found a lump on her breast
Must be payback, for the wrong I did
God, please let her live to see her grandkids
Yeah, I got fears, yeah, I cried tears
And so what? I ain't been to church in five years
Only the man above, got he right to judge
And if my prayers go unanswered, I won't hold a grudge

[Chorus]
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me

[Verse 3]
Rashanda, Kel, Coco, Nini
Your big sis' got your back if you need me
One day you might see me on TV
But don't ever think that you beneath me
'Cause see life can make you or break you
But even through the hard times, stay grateful
As for me, I never took a handout
Dealt with the situation, never ran out
I'd be lyin' if I said I never had doubts
Lotta times I was down, feelin' left out
Was on the outside lookin' in
While other people seemed to have the perfect blend
Just tryna figure what I need to do to win
Don't wanna end up sayin' what I coulda been
So Lord, please, I hope that you can hear my cries
This is a letter to you, signed Ebony Eyez

[Chorus]
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
Dear Father, are you with me?
I just hope you don't forget me
I ain't askin' for no pity
I just hope these prayers'll fix me
