Hey dad, I know you’ve been gone for a minute
But you can be sure that I missed you as much as you missed me
Things have changed since you left, at least a wee bit
I graduated secondary school and it’s sad that you missed it
Mom explained a lot of things that I never would have understood
And even though I’m a lot older today, I’m still kinda shook
Bare questions on my mind, the dare-devils are inclined
To tell me why they tend to throw our precious gemstones in the grime
What a pity, a community with no father figure
So many times I needed you, like, what would my father figure
I’m just glad that you’re back home now
And I don’t have to sit alone on the patio now
And by the way, I got a girlfriend now, her name’s Trina
Can’t wait to introduce you, wait let me show you her picture
What can I say, I got a thing for pretty girls just like you
And I know you’d like her, smart and funny, just like you
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
The bruises on my back tell more than a story
Paving a way for myself, the onus is on me
Son, it gets to a point where you’re just tired of being trampled upon
The battle is on, set yourself straight before the candle is blown
In the darkness, we shine forth behind lampstands
With large quotients, tugging it out with the Einsteins
And if that don’t work, we just muscle it out like Van Damme
That’s why people like us get better with time, cos we’re fine wine
So tonight’s for all the heroes, put your capes on
Let your heart rejoice, it’s a celebration
MLK didn’t walk these streets for you to be timid
So lay your sword down, go ahead and claim your victory
We were preceded by fighters and warriors
Titans and icons in our corridor, fight the insomnia
Don’t sleep on me, I’m bad for your back like a flat mattress
I’m back from the underground and it’s a fact that I half-arsed it
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
It’s really nice to see you two are chatting it up
I’ve been in the bedroom, cleaning, unpacking your box
Son, give us a moment, I need to talk to your father
Just a few minutes and you can go back to your chatter
It’s weird but I’m so glad I can touch you again
A boisterous joyous feeling inside I can barely contain
Lord knows I was reveling in sleepless nights
And every night, I couldn’t stop thinking how you were vilified
But I’d like to put all that in the past now
I want you to do the same, the future is the task now
May not come easy, the system really did you wrong
But think about it, you got a really beautiful son
Did he tell you about Trina? I bet he did
Did he tell you about the bully boy? Nah, I bet he didn’t
Feminism wouldn’t tell you about the the strength that’s needed
To raise a boy child, they only tell you men are filthy
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
Never wanna worry about what would have been
Cos we ain’t got the power to change what could have been
Just really glad that you’re back in my arms tonight
Uh, yeah back in my arms tonight
