Dad Song ft. RJ Full Range Lyrics

Many people will look at God

The same way they look at their fathers on Earth

You see, Men were charged to lead their household

To be accountable

To be the image of Christ

To their wives and to their children

And when that is damaged

Or when that is broken

There are some things that take place in the lineage

And the heritage that’s passed down

The legacy could be corrupted throughout the years

But God can heal those years

He can restore what has been broken

It feels like

Somebody turned off the lights

Every time that you leave me

This isn’t easy

La, da, da, da, da, da

Isn’t easy

It feels like

Somebody turned off the lights

Every time that you leave me

This isn’t easy

La, da, da, da, da, da

Isn’t easy

Apart of you lives in me

But how’d I get less of a portion

Maybe it’s the empty

Got me feelin like an orphan

A knife to my soul

Emotional abortion

Spent my life tryin to be someone important

Scarred in the heart

I was hard in my heart

Everyday a war in the dark

I push us farther apart

You taught me bout cars

But I couldn’t ever get it

Flash back

I didn’t wanna remember your visits

Fulla hate in me

Had so much pain in me

Momma couldn’t change it

God please take this from me

Caged deep in grief

That nobody knows

Surrounded by space in this place

Cuz nobody’s home

So I kicked dust and pulled my hoody up

Searching for acceptance

But never felt good enuff

Lookin up

For a figure as a man

How can I learn to walk

When I can barely stand

Spent so many years

Cryin tears of anguish

Which I believe led to the fears I’m stained with

My heart became dark

Like eerie parts of the basement

Ugh, I was filled with this hatred

And when you came around

I began to resist

All you saw was a young man with clenched fists

Thought I had life figured out

But then came the question

Will I ever extend you the forgiveness

It feels like

Somebody turned off the lights

Every time that you leave me

This isn’t easy

La, da, da, da, da, da

Isn’t easy

It feels like

Somebody turned off the lights

Every time that you leave me

This isn’t easy

La, da, da, da, da, da

Isn’t easy

You exist in memories so distant

At times I can’t recall if they’re fact or fiction

I was spoon fed poisonous lies

Became a victim

Anger left unchecked

Could only grow more bitter

Took a wake up call for me to reconsider

That’s when truth came out

Now I’m needing your forgiveness

Black notebook

Ink covered in heartache

I saw how the big picture looked

It made my heart break

Never wanted you to leave

Then the light went out

Darkness cut my heart

Like a knife inside and out

I search to find words

That could make up for the damage done

Found one way to break it down to the Dad I love

The Lord Jesus, He set me free

When He healed my wounds

Cuz His love went deep

Drowning in a river of grief

Fighting just to breathe

Til the light shined on me

And now I can see

I’m on my way back home like the prodigal

To reconcile with the man

I never got to know

See, life is lookin past all of the thorns on the rose

Every feeling of anger, betrayal

They gotta go

To everything it’s a season

And now’s the time to heal

Years go by

Only God knows when our time is near

Heard the Words of my Father in heaven

I know why I’m here

Christ turned the light on

And finally my life is clear

Once I was blind and corrupted by lies

Yes I have seen and now I am free, yeah

La, da, da, da, da, da

Yes I’m free yeah

Don’t want you to die

Without knowing Christ

So repent and believe in the Name of Jesus

La, da, da, da, da, da

In the Name of Jesus
