Sometimes your dealt a hand that you have no control over this song was kind of written about just that see I never knew my father he was gone before I was born. The only chance I had to meet him was once when my two grandparents passed away and at that point it was too late. I didn’t need a introduction. I had already known.
Lyrics
Verse
No I never knew you
You were gone before the dawn
Before I could ask why
No I didn’t call you dad
Never heard his side of the lies
Just shadows left behind
[Chorus]
No I never knew you
Never saw your face
Never felt your hand in mine
No I never knew you
But you left your trace
In the blood that runs in my spine
[Verse 2]
They said you had fire
Burned fast burned bright
But left us cold
A name in the stories
A ghost in the fold
But I’m carrying the name that carried your load
[Chorus]
No I never knew you
Never saw your face
Never felt your hand in mine
No I never knew you
But you left your trace
In the blood that runs in my spine
