Was as real as it seemed (happy birthday)

I’ve got a million excuses to why you died
Bet the people got their own reasons for homicide
Who’s to say it woulda worked, and who’s to say it wouldn’t have?
I was young and strugglin’ but old enough to be a dad
The fear of being a father has never disappeared
Pondering frequently while I’m zippin’ on my beer
My vision of a family was artificial and fake
So when it came time to create I made a mistake
Now you’ve got a little brother maybe it’s really you?
Maybe you really forgave us knowin’ we was confused?
Maybe every time that he smiles it’s you proudly knowin’ that
your father’s doin’ the right thing now?
I never tell a woman what to do with her body
But if she don’t love children then we can’t party
Think about it every year, so I picked up a pen
Happy birthday, love you whoever you would’ve been
Happy birthday…

And from the heavens to the womb to the heavens again
從天堂到地獄再回到天堂
From the endin’ to the endin’, never got to begin
從一個極端到另一個極端,無始無終
Maybe one day we could meet face to face?
也許有天我們能面對面
In a place without time and space
那裏的時空都無限
