oh daddy now a man by Kalikala Smithyou are supposed to be the one
that i can rely on
that i can cry to
that i can talk to.
and yet you are the one
that i have to run away from
that i have to cry about
that i have to talk about.
daddy why have you left me?
joined the path of apathy
where depression breeds depression
breeds heartache and inner turmoil.
random man you are gone from me.
i've joined the path of far away from you
where depression breeds hate
breeds heartache and inner turmoil.
like father, like daughter. 03/28/2004 Posted on 03/28/2004 Copyright © 2025 Kalikala Smith
