Message (feat. J. Thomas)

So many beautiful years Also many tears Since it broke, yet Hopeless brokenness found hope Even at the end of your rope  You always found a way to give us more while you cope The strongest woman I know From opening up to your home to losing it 'Said joy is just a matter of choosing it Light of the home Voice of hope For the blood sweat and tears you shed For your sacrifice Words can't suffice Here's a message that I send The message has now been received I'm a father showing his kid how to believe  No September leaves only April springs  No excuses, time to roll up our sleeves  And leave tomorrow back where it was The past the best teacher it does Make you strong where you once felt weak But you won't even know it until you reach  A later stage Rearrange with age  I'll show you everything upon the next page Ella Sage, my little rebel with etiquette  Grab the spatula yeah we're flipping the negative  One life to live, give, never to quit With confident words and a level of grit To be a positive nerd using elegant wit  We flock to the birds, so fly never sit That's it Ilaw ng tahanan Ikaw ang kapayapaan Para sa buhay 'yong ibinigay Kantang ito sa'yo iaalay I hit send on the message the past is prologue Back to the future refuse to go wrong I'm healing my heart every part that broke off My daughter is a product of a love that's so long Here I am, not about to run I've overcome the gun 11th hour is done No longer think I'm dumb The fear has come undone  From here to Kingdom Come The sum amounts to one It's allows for me to feel a lot less alone It allows for me to heal from my broken home My eye's open grown to show the hidden key In the middle of swagger found my inner "G" Force of course, light speed the dream Giving positive energy to my little E L.L.A. the love to elevate The concrete rose grows a better way My volume of love mass intensity  I'm George McFly you're my density  Every bully I'll checkmate respectfully  I'm no longer the pawn found the best of me With Ella next to me I got the recipe  I serve food for thought while you set the tea I found my remedy  Build a legacy  Destiny my child you are meant to be... Light of the home Voice of hope For the blood sweat and tears you shed For the sacrifice Words can't suffice Here's a message that I send I know now what you mean  From granite to diamonds, grapes to wine All this time your life's been a pattern of victory, not defeat With faith's foundation firm and free I finally see, growth and tribulation interchanging  As these fingers dance on the ivory/ebony melody they're making I wonder if I'll ever be As good a parent as you've been to me So I love and thank you, for everything
