dOP - Missed Call Lyrics

Yo I predicted this day without a
Crystal ball
Already knew something happened when I
Missed a call
When they finally got a hold me I
Totally flipped
I swear my world went dark like a
Global eclipse
When the officer was telling me that somebody
Stabbed you
I just couldn't get a grip but I knew that I
Had to
There's a first for everything and this is
Hopefully the last
Cause seeing you in that condition really
Broke me in half
And to be honest when it happened I was
Thinking revenge
But that decision would just make us both
Sink in the end
So I'm a keep it real with you man it
Coulda been worse
Anything is so much better than being
Put in a hurst
I told you bees make honey but they'll
Sting you too
Just like these fake friends watching
Everything that you do
And you may have a lot of favor but the
Odds are fadin
You better thank your lucky stars and the
God that made em

Yeah I don't know if this'll reach you but it's
Worth a shot
Cause you're my son so this obviously
Hurts a lot
And you may think I get kick out of
Saying I told you
How we live catches up to us one
Day and it's so true
I don't wanna see you go thru what
Happened to me
And I can't tell what to do but I'm just
Asking you please
I don't plan on giving up, I'm just
Sayin I'm tired
How many times I gotta tell you stop
Playin with fire
Your little sister needs a brother who is
Gonna be here
Wish you could feel the pain I do just from
One of these tears
You know I still blame myself for when that
Dog attacked you
It's just something that my memory keeps on
Jogging back to
You can tell me it's ok and that it's something we'll
Get thru
But I swear that it just feels like I failed to
Protect you
So if you hear my voice crack that's how
Fatal it aches
Cause my emotions are the one thing Im not
Able to fake

It's really hard for me to shake that whole
Night of events
And Yo Especially when you see it from this
Side of the fence
You're not a parent you don't know the kinda
Pain that I feel
So then just Trust me when I tell you what I'm
Sayin is real
You wanna end up like your friends follow
Them if you do
But just remember my advice is all to
Benefit you
If I could just rewrite the story we'd be
Trading places
Maybe this was meant to show you how
Amazing grace is
