Father
Journey of Wisdom: Embracing Life, Family, and Redemption in 'Father' by June Ibrahim
Lyrics
When I was young my old man told me
Received advice from the speaker's father about life and priorities.
About the life and priority
Life involves making choices and setting priorities.
Life as a good man leads family
Emphasis on leading a family as a good man in life.
When this pocket full of money, No
Despite having money, there are challenges.
I heard those wisdom laid in my head
Wisdom acquired from the past is remembered.
Many doors are on my way
Encountering various opportunities and challenges.
Walked the line saw many faces
Walking through life, encountering different people.
So much disorder
Life has disorder and chaos.
All my time I raise my hand again
Continuing to strive and work hard.
One by one I packed my pain
Packing away emotional pain one by one.
It's alright
Reassurance that everything will be alright.
It's alright
-All my faith upon myself again
-One by one I begged my prays
-It's alright
-It's alright
-Save me
Plea for help, support, and elevation to a better place.
Hold me
-Take me now
-Higher
-One time I realize somewhere in paradise
-Life's run just very fast one man was standing last
-The day we're waiting for the fact is front the door
-War is over
-I only wanna come if you let me go (Let me go)
-If only we could back and I fill my bag (With no regret)
-Home no more sadness
-Rythm of happiness
-Leaving all the reckless
-Ain't no dreaming
-All my time I raise my hand again
-One by one I packed my pain
-It's alright
-It's alright
-All my faith upon myself again
-One by one I begged my prays
-It's alright
-It's alright
-Save me
-Hold me
-Take me now
-Higher
-All my time I raise my hand again
Repetition of the process of raising hands, packing pain, and seeking reassurance.
One by one I packed my pain
-It's alright
-It's alright
-All my faith upon myself again
-One by one I packed my pain
-It's alright
-It's alright
-All my time I raise my hand again
-One by one I packed my pain
-It's alright
-It's alright
-All my faith upon myself again
-One by one I begged my prays
-It's alright
-It's alright
-All my time I raise my hand again (Save Me)
Repeated plea for help, support, and elevation.
