A Simple Prayer by A Daddy

Oh Lord I know I was so lost in the underground world

I’ve done so much wrong but I’ve given up that life so cruel

I want to walk your path do good forget all the bad

Forgive those who have hurt me and still continue to laugh

At times I grow in fear to face my problems tomorrow

Please give me the strength to not hide and be a coward

Let my head look up high at the clouds like the tallest tower

Let my priority be to be in this world the greatest father

Please help me forgive those who have done me harm

Help those that I’ve hurt forgive me as I’m just a man

I see the sky so cloudy as I stare at the window

Just like my life gray and rowdy a father who’s single

I’ve lost a son and it nearly killed my soul and heart

It left me bleeding many days sitting alone in the dark

You have sent me my Jose Angel my boo as he says

I want to teach him good, son let’s kneel down and pray

Help us be strong to let nothing tear us from each other

Mend the heart of your sometimes lost mother

She has done me much harm and tried taken you from me

Let me not judge her God but help her live happily

Let me be humble and be able to forget and forgive

She was unfaithful and until this day she tries to make me bleed

But no more as I need to remember what is the best for my son and me

My Family, My Job, Dreams, Goals, and of course you Lord all that I need

So please hear my prayer of a father lost and confused

Guide my life and lead the way as I do not have a clue

I’m just a man trying to be a good daddy and leave the past behind

I’m just a father who doesn’t want to be lost and confused
