[Verse 1]
Dear Daddy, Iâm missing you so
So much I wish I could get up and go
Back to the past, kick it at home
I wish I could call you, pick up the phone
Used to clown, thatâs gone
You would slap me upside of my dome
Now you not around when I be at home
I wish you was around me now that Iâm grown
To see my wife in all white, walking that aisle, making me smile
Instead I saw you fight for your life
And what you miss now? The birth of my child
It gets worse, cause the second oneâs here and it hurts
And theyâll never get to meet you, death did first
And itâs coming for me too, Iâm cursed
I hear you
[Hook: Dimitri McDowell]
I hear your footsteps coming from behind
And I know, know that any day it might be my time
Iâll be ready if you coming
Ready, ainât no running
Iâll be ready when itâs time, Iâll be ready
Iâll be ready for that moment
Only human and I know it
Iâll be ready when itâs time
Iâll be ready
[Verse 2]
I hate death, it ainât right
Sneaks right up after daylight
One day youâre feeling great, then itâs over
Yeah my dad went fast, but took it like a soldier
Hold the presses, Iâm losing my breath as I try to address it
I canât escape it, Iâm not that impressive
If death is a prison, we all get arrested
Every now and then take a look at his pic, so the image donât slip away
Donât wanna remember him laying in that bed, but I really canât forget the day
I canât think of a thing in my past
Harder than watching him breathing his last
Death, I know Iâm in your path
I know Iâm not free from your grasp
I hear you
[Hook: Dimitri McDowell]
I hear your footsteps coming from behind
And I know, know that any day it might be my time
Iâll be ready if you coming
Ready, ainât no running
Iâll be ready when itâs time, Iâll be ready
Iâll be ready for that moment
Only human and I know it
Iâll be ready when itâs time
Iâll be ready
[Verse 3]
Hey death, we know you so well
Every time we rise up, you fight with no fail
You snatch us down, we so frail
Got no time to pretend
You take on every soul, and only see wins
We got no way to defend
But hey death, please know
We wonât have much to grieve for
When all your wins are repoed
And the reaper reaps what he sowed
I ain't gon run from you
What I got to flee for?
Did it your hurt your self esteem when you heard your sting was no more?
[Hook: Dimitri McDowell]
I hear your footsteps coming from behind
And I know, know that any day it might be my time
Iâll be ready if you coming
Ready, ainât no running
Iâll be ready when itâs time, Iâll be ready
Iâll be ready for that moment
Only human and I know it
Iâll be ready when itâs time
Iâll be ready
