Time in a Bottle by Enrico James Lyrics
[Verse]
I'm struggling for this dream
I'm fighting for a cause
I'll go and risk it all, even if I fall
Time is everything, and I can't take a loss
You can put me down, but I'll be standing tall
What type of father figure tries to put his son down?
When the night falls I bleed for the sun to drown
I know you hate me, because you hate yourself
Put yourself in predicaments risking your own health
I built my own business with a passion to blog
You're just your own witness to others faults that you cause
Quit pointing the finger, repent to your flaws
Stop cursing the Lords name if you're a Christian at heart
In no position to judge, we all have our own vice
I shouldn't have quit my job, and listened to my own advice
Saying you don't need me, you should think twice
You're left with people who hurt the most I guess that feels right
With just a little support I could have went far
Just like a car with no ignition I never had a start
I've dealt with mental abuse saying you love me
First you taunt me, and then you try and hug me
[Outro]
"Hey Dad, I know you lived your entire life not knowing who your biological father was. But just know you have a greater father at heart with the Lord above. It's a blessing to be able to take the good with the bad. It's October 5th, and it's your birthday. Happy Birthday. I love you."
