Father To Son Lyrics
Charles & EddieFather to sonA single motherStruggles hardHer child's neglectedIn her own backyardAn absent fatherThe T.V.'s onA little reminderThat hope is goneAt christmas timeThere will be no treeJust empty eyesAnd a church meal freeBoy to fatherFather to sonIn the same apartmentLife goes onA generationPasses byAnd no one seems to understand theReason whyA new electionAnd no one votes'Cause bullets flyOn the way to the pollsSister's wearing a long sleeve shirtYou can bet she's got a story to tellA bed in the kitchenA lock on the fridgeYou know it's a living hellAt christmas timeThere will be no tereJust empty eyesAnd a church meal freeHow many people have to die beforeWe open up our eyes and see what's going onWhen are we gonna break the chains and bring equalityTo people who don't have it all
Charles & Eddie Father To Son
