Man At Last

Man at last

I know i was a man in the past
But i lost my way
I fell off the path
& the pain is overbearing
The thought of my kids thinking 
That their dad just wasn't caring 
But I've finally found my way back 
I no longer need a sack 
To forget my problems
Or numb the emotions 
I just need my girls by my side 
I am no longer needing to hide
My daughters have been deprived 
Now I'm ready to fight
Even if it's for the rest of my life 
I'll be on the front line of this War 
Cuz I feel it in my soul to the Core 
I don't need a mind altering chemical 
Their daddy is finally Unbreakable 
& like i said before 
I know I lost my way
And fell off the path In the past 
But trust and believe 
Im ready to be a man again at last
