Joseff McKenneth - Stay Lyrics




Should he stay
Or should he go
And leave his only son growing up
Without a father in the home
Get it together
Emotions in control
And he's diving under water
But to stay would be the drowning of his soul

Drivin in the city
Henny with him
Coping with the pain
Of his mistakes but it ain't helping
It pushed him to the edge
It pushed him hard his life is heavy
He wants to breakaway
He wants to go, the chains are heavy

Guilty in his soul
Guilt is all he feels
His son is wide awake
And he's the one he needs
How can he leave
And split the family
And abandon his responsibility

Should he stay (Should he stay)
Or should he go (Should he go)
And leave his only son growing up
Without a father in the home
Get it together
Emotions in control
And he's diving under water
But to stay would be the drowning of his soul

Standin' at the door
His bags are packed
His son is lookin' at him
But daddy ain't looking back
Refuse to realize
Confusion in his son's eyes
Leavin' home seems very wise
And he ain't saying "why"

Guilty in his soul
Guilt is all he feels
His son is wide awake
And he's the one he needs
How can he leave
And split the family
And abandon his responsibility

Should he stay (Should he stay)
Or should he go (Should he go)
And leave his only son growing up
Without a father in the home
Get it together
Emotions in control
And he's diving under water
But to stay would be the drowning of his soul

He won't stay
He's bout to go (Hey)
And leave little Joe
Growing up without a father in the home
Get it together
Emotions in control
And he's diving under water
But to stay would be the drowning of his soul

"Dad, I wanna kill you, you selfish, inconsiderate piece of shit!"
Are just some of the things that I wrote about you
In a little diary my mom gave me at 8 years old
Those weren't nice things to say as I was a nice
Respectful little church boy who was taught to turn the other cheek
Bless those that hurt you, and give all your problems to Jesus!
But see the thing is, when you're confused and have little to no real answers
Yet you're told to "be strong", "press on", "man up"
You learn how to pretend!
What I wanted was to see the world through your eyes!
Know what you knew!
Feel what you felt
But it was a block there!
I just couldn't get through that block!
Surrounded by a bunch of women telling me how I should feel
How I should carry myself
Pressure on top of pressure on top of pressure
But you walked away like a little irresponsible punk
Is this the result of how a real man carries himself?
If so
I don't want any part of it
