Jamie Madrox - Tear Jerker lyrics
[Jamie Madrox - Tear Jerker lyrics]
This song right here is Dedicated
To my mom, to my pops to my family
To my daughter to the people that I know
And love to this day
I was the product of two
People the never got along
I was named after a song
They heard the night I was born
I was probably never planned but
You know how it go
Pops was strong and had it all under control
Moms was on and bored and
Couldn't wait to leave
But she was pregnant now and
Still a mother to be
And because of that fact she stayed
And put up with his shit
And took everything that
That motha fucka could dish
Believe it wasn't easy and
From what i'm told
Then again I don't remember I
Was two years old i was too young to know or
See the tears in her eyes
And wonder why every night she would
Cry and pray to die
That's Some Fucked Up Shit
But I was so care free
Like every other child just livin' a fantasy
Never thought for a second
Considered it wasn't real
If it wasn't should I change
The way that I feel
Just like a parent wanna shield
You from all the pain
No matter how much inside
That you're suffering
A true Sacrifice like the wings of a dove
And it's real because it's
All love coming again
Moms is tripping and pops is chilling
Brainstorming trying to come up on a million
Or even a thousand
A few hundred will be right on time
Cause them bills is piling up
And we're fallin' further behind
And dept collect is banging
And calling the phone
When they would come to our house
We would pretend we wasn't home
Standing in the wikline
Free honey and cheese
When gratuity baskets from local charities
Its not fresh at all when you going to school
And can't afford to dress just
Like the cool kids do
So with used text books
And last year's shoes
I was destined to never make it
To the likes of high school
Time passed and pops got sick and fell ill
And everything went down hill
And when them SSI checks didn't cover
The bills not even close
Moms kept the boat afloat as
We coast into next year
Just like a parent wanna shield
You from all the pain
No matter how much inside
That you're suffering
A True Sacrifice like the wings of a dove
And it's real because it's
All love coming again
I see pops even less than before
But he is living in the same
House behind the bedroom door
Its always closed again and
He's sleeping no doubt
A rare occasion be a bathroom
Would bring him out and I get to see him for
A second just to say hey how you doing
Good to see you awake are you ok?
For him no reply yea, Jamie I'm Fine
And the same night leave my
World without saying goodbye
Can you imagine the rage of pain that I felt
I was too shocked to cry
While excepting to change dealt
I went to school and all the kids in my class
Attended a special mass
To acknowledge that he passed
I Wanted to cry but not in front of my peers
And not in front of a priest
So I wiped away tears
And swallowed the whole sorrow like
A bit of relief
And prayed to god to let me talk
To him every night when I sleep
Just like a parent wanna shield
You from all the pain
No matter how much inside
That you're suffering
A True Sacrifice like the wings of a dove
And it's real because it's
All love coming again
To my mom, to my pops to my family
To my daughter to the people that I know
And love to this day
