FATHER Songtext
von KB

Ain′t no liquor hard enough
Ain't no pill that′s strong enough
To get these chains off of me
I hear you calling for me
I need saving

Gone my way for long enough
Hope that your arms reach far enough
To save the lost boys like me
Even a wretch like me

'Cause I got blood all over these hands
One last time and I'm back again
Is it true you can turn the sinners to sons and daughters?
I hope so, ′cause I need a father


I don′t think we can know how deep the pain endure when a Father leaves
Every Father that I've ever had has abandoned me
Silently I′m suffering
Always think, eventually everyone gon' give up on me
What′s a Father's love to me?
Almost change my last name, his legacy corrupted me
Took me to his friends′ house, never came to check up on me
A six-year-old alone with another teen

She stole my innocence, can barely speak on what she done to me
Hey, listen, hate that I can't forget it
Hate when they talk statistics, don't play with our fatherlessness
It multiplies our addictions and multiplies hypertension
Mm, we forgive it or we relive it, yeah

Ain′t no liquor hard enough (mm)
Ain′t no pill that's strong enough (mm)
To get these chains off of me
I hear you calling for me
I need saving

Gone my way for long enough
Hope that your arms reach far enough
To save the lost boys like me
Even a wretch like me

′Cause I got blood all over these hands
One last time and I'm back again
Is it true you can turn the sinners to sons and daughters?
I hope so, ′cause need a father (oh)


I need a father (oh)
Is it true You can turn the sinners to sons and daughters?
I hope so 'cause I need a father

And I know it sucks that he hasn′t been in your life
But God ain't gon' let you be like that twin
I wanna tell you
God sent me here to tell you
You will be a great father to your kids (saving!)

Follow me to healing, tell you how we did it
Every Father was a son who needed a father figure
Needed a better vision from the day that we repented (yeah)
I am broken too, not making him no bigger sinner
I′m forgiven now, my father, he is better than the better ones
And I kept my last name, we′ll make it to a better one
Never leaving (never)
For my sons I'll forever be it, everything I know I needed
Thank you Jesus!

′Cause I got blood all over these hands (I got blood)
One last time and I'm back again (and I′m back again)
Is it true you can turn the sinners to sons and daughters?
I hope so 'cause I need a father (oh)

I need a father (oh)
Isit true you can turn the sinners to sons and daughters?
I hope so ′cause I need a father!
