Tonart: F minor
Verse 1
Em
I'm only flesh and blood
Bm
But I could be anything that you demand
D
Yeah, yeah, that's what it is
A
Em
For as long as I know
B
Em
I hold back
cause there's too much
that could go on this track
Bm
But I can still let you feel
Em
what my emo tions are at
First off, this is a story
about a man and his son
Bm
Oh yeah, it's personal,
Em
Father grew up with a wealth
of sisters and brothers
Bm
Doing their own thing,
Em
working hard and supporting their mother
He was the youngest
and he got away with all of the dirt
Bm
Center responsibility,
G
making his siblings work
he was still adrift
and still immature
Bm
And was times was hard,
Em
you found him banging at all their doors
And as years passed,
G
he learned an assortment of graphs
what piece of success
Em
He'd rather be dumb with
common sense
as his only income
Bm
If only he could see the future
Em
in misfortune and brung
It's like, yeah, uh
Bm
If only he could see the future
G
in misfortune and brung
Em
C
I hope you listen
Em
D
it's like I love you
A
C
Bm
More than I know
Em
Older age is setting in,
eager to grip on his life
Bm
He meets his school teacher,
Em
falls in love and makes her his wife
Haiti, 3 -2 -21, yeah he scares him,
D
Bm
his son's so excited
G
And unaware of the things
that would come
Em
For seven years he saw a blitz,
and the peacefulness tails
Bm
Started to feel the marriage
pretty much went stale
Em
Unknown at the time,
G
who would suffer the most
Bm
For getting him weak and busy,
G
yeah his son still boasts
Em
on how he's a great dad
He ain't do nothing bad,
still remiss in games
But his prior engagements he had
But deep inside behind the smiles
There was hideous scars
Bm
Calling the ball with debt
G
Like, I don't know who you are
Am
It's like
B
C
Is that any way for a man to carry on?
B
Do you think that I won't find
A
Em
Oh you'll never know
C
B
Uh, uh, right
Em
And later years became a monster,
the father with drugs
Bm
No money and scruffy clothes
Em
doing favors for buds
Or hitting some rocks
and dope boys up on the block
Bm
The son came of age accepted
and then he wasn't shot
G
Em
He screamed, I am not you,
I'm better than that man
Bm
But he ain't see he was a saint,
just a different brand
Em
While he never smoked pot
or rarely did them shots
Bm
He let his dreams eat away
at all the stuff that he got
G
Em
He was an artist
and he prayed every day for success
Em
hoping the bills would be laid to rest
His music dissolved the bonds
that he made with his others
Bm
The impossible dream
he shares
G
with his eldest of brothers
Em
In a sense, they live in parallels,
it's different places
Bm
He's played the same role of life
Em
with his different faces
Somehow, the son sees
a photo of both worlds
Bm
As a writer, he's well aware
G
of the faith that unfurls
he would not let a boy or a girl
without ever knowing his love
A
Saying they fate ain't determined
Em
C
by the capacity of blood
Cause, cause,
Em
D
A
more than you'll ever know
C
This is me, this is you
Bm
Em
I hope you listening
A
Bm
Hope you understand
Em
Yeah, no matter what
Bm
G
Em
I'm still
Bm
Yeah, it's like that
Em
Bm
G
Em
I got nothing else to say
Bm
Bm
Em
I'll see you in
