[00:00.373]So low
[00:05.455]Door is closed
[00:10.959]Trust is broke
[00:16.557]Words got choked
[00:22.105]In my throat
[00:27.548]Can't let go
[00:33.108]Of my high hopes
[00:38.275]My high hopes
[00:44.209]My high hopes
[00:49.327](Say what?)
[00:49.944]Papa came home from another day of hard
[00:52.235]Work and handed me his key, told me "Go look in the car"
[00:55.075]So I went out there to look for what he asked me to get
[00:57.872]I was checkin' all the seats but the only thing I saw
[01:00.587]Was a bag of c*****e (Say what?)
[01:06.541]Uh, Papa was too silent, he ain't never tell a lie
[01:08.985]I went in to tell him 'bout it, he said "Oh, that must be Guy
[01:11.851]He worked with me at the job", I said "Oh" and walked away
[01:14.626]He said "Oh, before you go, make sure you don't tell your ma'
[01:17.425]'Bout the, c*****e" (Say what?)
[01:23.427]Uh, me and little homie, we was walkin' to the store
[01:25.755]It was right there on the corner and we seen a guy that's homeless
[01:28.711]He was wrapped up in a blanket, he was lookin' really cold
[01:31.307]Then he asked us for some change and he asked us if we know
[01:34.070]Who had the, c*****e (Say what?) C*****e
[01:45.675]I'm losin' my mind, trying to figure out
[01:48.420]How did I inherit so much pain
[01:50.884]I drink a lot of alcohol, problems with the law
[01:53.978]Would I have done better or the same
[01:56.471]If Daddy never tried c*****e? Uh
[02:01.688]Daddy never tried c*****e
[02:07.985]C*****e, uh (Say what?)
[02:13.553]In my throat
[02:15.302]So my father's only next logical step was to go to rehab
[02:18.978]Can't let go
[02:21.895]And that's exactly what he did
[02:24.382]Of my high hopes
[02:26.059]He went to rehab and got completely clean
[02:29.573]Hasn't done a drug
[02:30.382]My high hopes
[02:32.449]In over 20 years
[02:34.837]He did that for himself but
[02:36.191]My high hopes
[02:37.314]He did that because he didn't want to lose us
[02:39.855]Whew, strong man
[02:41.412]Uh, now let's talk about how much I respect my pop
[02:44.050]He's been through so much in life, we ain't never had a lot
[02:46.740]We just had each other's back, that was really all we need
[02:49.538]Pop, I love you unconditional and thanks for loving me
[02:52.278]More than, c*****e
[02:57.354]My father chose me over c*****e
[03:03.732]C*****e, uh
[03:07.951]I'm proud to say that I'm an addict who inherits your pain
[03:14.908]Trust is broke
[03:20.497]Words got choked
[03:26.003]In my throat
