Lyrics

Rel McCoy-So Far Removed
(M. Morley)
Verse 1
Out of 6 of my brothers, I’m the first born son
Plus I got 2 others from the marriage of mom
Two sisters in the midst, I hope your hearts not numb
Cause Dad had 3 wives now he ain’t got none
He would serenade ’em, hook bait ’em, procreate
And then find, he couldn’t relate to ’em and then he’d try and shake ’em
His priority was making, not taking care of babies
He’s been solitary lately and yo, he’s almost 80
Not saying that he hated, but his way was his own
I remember his excuses when I tried to get to know him
He was young and used to sing and write all kinds of poems
I don’t think he ever listened to songs I tried to show him
In my teen years I couldn’t see clear
I took a lot of LSD and drank a lot of beers
And I remember screaming in the mirror, not that he disappeared
But our relationship was always second place to his career
Real tears
Chorus
Do I gotta be a lot like you?
Never mind similarities, I’m not like you
Not saying that your children should not like you
But now I got another Father and he’s not like you
Verse 2
I heard back through your sales rep
Things you’ve said and forgotten I’ll never fail to forget
So much cynicism for Mark’s vision
Who needed you to give him support, with the whole force of your hearts wisdom,
You’d only hit him with, spineless narcissism it’s fine you are forgiven
But for my bros gotta let em know, I’m on par with ’em
This is the preemptive start to put us back together and see us as parts fitting
When you depart the living, we’ll be broken inside
But I’m already there my self worth corroded and died
It’s been a sobering ride, trying to decode the pride
And defrost, cause both of us got kind of a frozen side
I know this to be the reflection
Genetic codes coincide but it won’t decide my direction
The spirit and the flesh both beckon
I’d be a liar if I didn’t confess to know the essence, God’s presence
Real tears
Chorus
