Florida Man
You didn't sign my birth certificate I wonder if when you saw my tiny face You smiled It's alright that the fireworks were far away I wanted to hear my music anyway Say that I'm the reason you're alive And then act like I'm an idiot Just because I want to be alive You killed my older brother The one I always wanted I wonder how he would've smiled How tall he would've gotten How smart he'd be Do you, too? It's time, and we have to get the guns You prophesied this moment Your visions You want to be right so bad You'd carve into your own flesh Talk about how horrible you are And continue being horrible You never said you were proud of me Am I different now? You expect me to smile After you beat my mom And never paid fucking child support You want to be in my life But you were gone for half a decade Shitting in logs in Florida Sometimes I wonder If I'm doing the right thing Sometimes I wonder If I can be happy Are you gonna leave again? I still have so much to tell you I have so much to show you I love you and I miss you I want you to see me I want you to say you're proud of me You're such a fucking dick, A sleazy piece of shit, Dad
