Let You Down - Patrick Jørgensen

I woke up this morning

To find my father

Standing on my doorstep

Guess he was surprised

When I told him I decided

I was skipping Christmas this year

He asked me why

I told him why

I don’t wanna tell a lie

A — a — a

I ain’t got no no time to play games this year

Made a deadline to myself that I really wanna meet this year

Told him I was gonna wrap it up by the end of this year

I ain’t got no time to take off this year

I ain’t got the time or the money I can spend

I ain’t got enough for myself and it’s painful to say

But I’d much rather sit and try to figure out

I just wish I knew what I was about to do next year

I have come way to far

Can’t give up my dream

If only I could take it back

I would do the same

What I should be doing with my life next year

Not the guy to plan for the future but I kinda

Wish I knew what I was about to do next year

I don’t want your pity, I wanna be ready

When the time comes

I don’t want no gift, I just wanna love

I just need to love myself again

Wish it was easy to tell it like it is

I don’t wanna let myself down

Father, please forgive me

Father, I’ve been bothered by it

Father, understand me

I don’t wanna live like this no more

I don’t wanna let you down at all

I don’t wanna let you down at all

Know it’s hard to grasp what is really going on

When’s the last time you had a project of your own

When’s the last time you found yourself in a zone

Zoning out to the sound of a drum like «uh»

When’s the last time you had a passion so strong

And a dream so big that it took away your breath

Any time you let it go sorry for the quiz

But I really wanna know

Have you ever felt this way before

Have you ever felt this way

If you haven’t than there isn’t any point in me trying

To explain what I’m trying to accomplish

Only thing I know is it’s me against the world

It’s all you need to know

When’s the last time anybody doubted you

When’s the last time you did something for the first time

When’s the last time it was you against the odds

And it’s one in a million and the feeling of a stepback

Makes you get that, but you put that

Anger get to use

Refusing to lose it

Excuse what I’ve done

Cus I know I was your son

Before it started and you loved me for the one that I was

Father, please forgive me

Father, I’ve been bothered by it

Father, understand me

I don’t wanna live like this no more

I don’t wanna let you down at all

I don’t wanna let you down at all

You given me so much

You provided me a home

But you don’t understand

What is really going on

You so sick and tired

Of me working on a tune

Telling you it’s all gonna

Add up pretty soon

Leaving you to ask

Are you ever moving on

When you gonna realize

That the energy is gone

Time that you move on

Time to get a job

Why do you believe

That you gonna prove me wrong

I have come way to far

Can’t give up my dream

If only I could take it back

I would do the same

I have come way to far

Can’t give up my dream

If only I could make it right

What am I to do
