Kirk Franklin - Daddys Song Lyrics

Yesterday I got a page
And it said that my daddy died
But I couldn't cry
We had a fight long time ago
By the liquor store
Said I didn't wanna see your face no more
You see I know pops was just a man
But how you hurt someone you love
I don't understand
So ya'll tell me
What am I supposed to do (Oh)

Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
My thought is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last talk to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true then I really need to see your face
So I'll know
It's gonna be ok

I pulled up around five
to the see my people and my mamas House
To see what they was talking bout
I haven't seen em in a long time
(Baby how you doing fine)
Now it's time to tell em
What's been on my mind
Who was there to wipe the tears away
And who decided not to show up
On my wedding day
So ya'll tell me
What am I supposed to do
I just need to hear from you

Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
My thought is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last
Talked to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true
Then I really need to see your face
So I'll know it's gonna be ok

Living in this world ain't easy
You wanna give up sometimes and
even though I got my girl beside me
A fathers love is hard to find see
every boy wants his daddy there
Feels like his daddy care
Feel Like his daddy will be there
I know I gotta keep my mama strong
I guess you never miss
Something till it's gone
