Enough

You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough Even if you thought you never was Yeah Should it hurt this much Ain't seen you in months Never kept in touch But once we almost went to lunch Then you cancelled What a stunt Got my hopes up for an I.O.U. A missed opportunity To love your daughter's son It sucks to see you like this Cause it's how I'll be reminded Of the day that you laid lifeless With no light behind your eyelids I ain't wish for you to die this way Unconscious in a gown I hate that we ain't lay no groundwork So the bitter taste is vain I wanna feel your pain but you rest In the bed you made I may shed mournful tears but what I grieve Is years of waste Every get together separated by the space Of tampered love and all the tension Our emotions can create I look at you with pity as I nonverbally pray When God decides it's Time for me to go He won't refrain From taking my last breath in peace Of grieving family I'd crumble knowing they were there just counting down the days Until their father passed I don't want them looming over me I want them to celebrate the life that I sustained You threw yours away I feel like maybe you were slain by poor self image But if you'd been called Would you have even came Sorry I sound spiteful It's the lack of things to say Bout why it took your death for me To open up I can't explain what keeps me silent We just didn't have the same ideals I deal with witnessin' my momma Kneelin' over your face cryin' Then realizin' you're her Daddy No denying she so badly Wanted you but sadly You refused to tell her that she Was your rock You got no reason not to be aware That you are loved and you're enough Even if you thought you never was You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was I saw you on your birthday Wasn't feeling like myself I guess that that makes two of us Cause you were off the rails Prolly shoulda spoke up then But I was somewhere else Way too self absorbed to think You might need someone's help Hollow is the heart of retrospect I had an armed guard Defending my internal fortress It's ironic What's stuck with me for quite sometime Is at Abby's performance You had asked if I was still With the girl of most importance At that point Not no more Then you said you took an ex to catch up And she'd pretty much transformed Why that's so significant It got me to look forward When I couldn't see a future for myself Without my former lover I discovered that I love her as a memory Cause any interaction had outside of our Attraction to each other Proved you right I'll always give you credit for that peace of mind Grandaddy Weren't too close but I am thankful You were mine And I have gifts that you passed down So you're my angel in the sky You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was You are loved, you are loved You are loved And you're enough even if You thought you never was
