1
Yeah, we gotta finish this off right, for mum and dad, being that place that I can turn to, yeah.
2
cause we all need somewhere, we all need somewhere to go, we all need somewhere to go home to.
3
I've never been rich and I've never been poor
4
which I guess made me appreciate everything more
5
For i've had a chance in a way to decide
6
to mix with people from all different situations in life
7
I saw the pros and cons and then rose beyond all the negatives of each side
8
the way I speak might be a blatant display of the way I was raised
9
but shit I'm proud of that and seeing as how i'm at this point
10
I wasn't raised up being refused
11
my parents made a choice and gave me freedom to chose my own way
12
in a way knowing mistakes that might come
13
and I think because of that I've learned to make the right ones too
14
now my youth in all truth was a hard time
15
knowing there's a place where you fit in that you can't find
16
half the time my mind felt so confident
17
I couldn't understand why half the time I felt the opposite
18
I just wanted to be somewhere in between in my head but instead I got the courage up to dream
19
because my parents had awareness and they taught me that your own belief is essential to reach your potential
20
in fact to think of all the love you've given me
21
and me rarely telling you how much it really means
22
I had to try and write a song so i could make it up
23
and I could tell you all those things that I don't say enough
24
now mum I gotta take a bit of time
25
cos I wanna say this right but I still gotta make it rhyme
26
you're way above any label I could give so ill just say it how it is, check it out
27
from the very first moment I was born
28
it's like I've had a mum that was devoted to me more than herself
29
and not just that phase when you're young
30
I'm talkin' from that age all the way to 21
31
I've been spoilt, and as hopeless as it is
32
I didn't really notice as a kid
33
but now I'm grown and I know every sacrifice you made so our home was our own little paradise to stay,
34
and later on working 60 hour weeks
35
and still coming home to cook so you could sit us down to eat
36
and through it all you never asked for any help
37
as if in some way you just expect it from yourself
38
so I just want you to know that I'm grateful
39
for everything you've done and for everything to come
40
you spent your life trying to illuminate my gloom
41
now i'll spend the rest of mine trying to do the same for you
42
you supported me in everything
43
I know that I can come and talk to you for anything and you'll understand
44
and man you gotta know that the man that I've become is pretty simply cos I got to have you as my mum
45
and dad, without you I woulda never made it through
46
cos i've emulated you since the tender age of 2, or maybe before
47
but basically all I'm trying to say is that it made me who I am today
48
it's you who taught me how to have pride back when I was young
49
so now I'm proud to have a dad like that
50
you stand up for what you think
51
that's why I do the same
52
now I've found a voice to try to make it change
53
you saw through all the bullshit
54
I've had my eyes open ever since
55
I don't believe it just because they call it evidence
56
I've seen the benefit of having a dad who's not afraid to be affectionate
57
through all the years that you've worked
58
just to provide for us and with every single dollar made you didn't get that holiday "Λtil this year
59
shit its easy to tell the type of dad you've been cos that speaks for itself
60
growing up you'd always come to my sport and show your love and support
61
so just one thing before I finish I just want you to know that meant a lot
62
my childhood had everything that I could ever want (cause of you)
63
you gave me strength to be what I wanna be and see my life and what I wanted to achieve
64
so from here on out, whatever happens over time in my life
65
you got a son that knows he can always come back home and feel better.
66
cause we all need somewhere, we all need somewhere to go,
67
cause we all need somewhere, we all need somewhere to go.
