Artist: June Luva f/ Peace Album: 2-11 in Progress, Vol. 1 Song: Not Gonna Lie Typed by: Cno Evil [June Luva] Dear family, I decided to write this Dear John No longer could I provide, so daddy's moving on I be gone, by the time that you read this letter Hopefully I'm in a place where I'm doing much better See I was fired from my job after 13 years Lost control, murdered my boss and all of my peers Wipe your tears, perhaps you might of turned to the news So at this point in time, your thoughts are confused Let me clear 'em, I never had a education Or even took another trade to fall back on See I was lost, like my ancestors in the woods Trying to get away from them white no goods, you heard me? I hope by now you understand If anybody ask, tell 'em daddy was a good man And bury me wit a smile into the sand You put your mind into it, you can conquer this land I'm finally free... [Chorus 2X: Peace] I'm not gonna lie to you I wish you was here, and it was me saying bye to you Tell me what I got to do But my heart's full of sorrow, sure as the sky is blue [June Luva] I was angry at the lord, I just didn't understand why He would let the most beautifullest thing die To me, I wonder how could it be That he would just destroy my family I got a lot of questions, where was you at when he passed When he was at the hospital, laying on his ass I wish I can take his place, but I couldn't And even if I begged to him to, I know he wouldn't Go along, I'm really trying to stay strong I'm sorry but I can't accept the fact that you gone Word is bond, I move on, if you want me But it's kind of hard, when memory's is just to haunt me Every night before I go to sleep I'm seeing visions of your face, everyday of the week Repeat, every night before I go to sleep I'm seeing visions of your beautiful face I wonder where you at sometimes, how does it feel to be free And by the way did you get a chance to see the true me You know he looks like you, in every way Especially when he smiles, it brightens my day, so hey [Chorus 2X] [June Luva] I'm not as fortunate as many I can't remember the last time I had luck if any, I'm drowining in my Henny Trying to push the away, but the shit's here to stay And the bad thoughts is taking my life, sorry to say What the hell I do, God, to deserve all of this When I'm outside, I wished the stray bullets didn't miss Lord forgive me, I know not what I say and do But am I wrong for wanting to come upstairs wit you Is it true, the streets if full of diamonds, plus gold And all you want in return is my heart and soul Take me now, man, cuz I ain't got shit to live for Suddenly a voice of reason, said, is you sure My life is a mess, man, never progressed It's only so much one can take when he stressed Then he said, think about it my son, you got a seed As I went to cut him off, he said, let me proceed Don't you wanna see your baby grow up to be a man And teach him right from wrong, and do all that you can Never leave him, he need you, like you need me To guide him through his heartaches, pains and misery, yeah [Chorus 2X]
