‘’Ocean Skies‘’ And the winner, for the best rap album goes to Ludacris it's your year baby This goes out to my father, who is in critical condition right now I appreciate your prayers Mr. Wayne Bridges I love you Rest in peace Wayne Bridges You're still living through me Listen! Look, I lost my father to the bottle I'd hug him everyday like I might not see him tomorrow Got a little sorrow for a lifetime Cause when he was living I'm thinking how do I get him to listen When he was seldom in his right mind My early years I was too young to understand But I remember the smell of beer and seeing all the empty cans Waking up, crying in the night, hearing arguments Hands off my momma, somehow I knew he was the cause of it Got a little older and he got a little worse Drinking must be his remedy, he got a little cursed Well, tell me what's the cure for a man who miss his pops The beat goes on, but the drinking's gotta stop! If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow Wishing every day you were here with me But now that you're gone, I lost my heart to the bottle, to the bottle Ooh oh oh Yeah, I lost my father to the bottle Function and alcoholics what they call it far as I know Became a teenager and started to understand But even through drinks he still taught me to be a man So before the hospital, when the paramedics rest him He knew that everybody who met him, instantly loved him I run the con concerts? Would have made him even sicker Cause who gon' tell him he can't drink none of his son's liquor And tell me without my father how am I supposed to manage?! He had the biggest heart, but also had that liver damage Tell me what's the cure for a man who miss his paps The beat goes on, but the drinking' gotta stop! If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow Wishing every day you were here with me But now that you're gone, I lost my heart to the bottle, to the bottle Ooh oh oh Not a day goes by that I don't miss ya, and don't wish you were here with me No matter what you did, I forgive you! I lost my father to the bottle Tell your parents you love 'em You might not see them tomorrow! I swallow my pride, try to put my problems aside But I feel so hollow inside Gotta keep my eyes on the prize Cause I'm steady wishing you were here To see the goals that I plan to reach You left the day after I put you into my Grammy speech It's almost like you waited just to see me win Well, pops I can't wait untill the day we meet! If I had have know I wouldn't see you tomorrow I would've had you hold to your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey But now you got me drunk out that pain, gone after sorrow Wishing every day you were here with me But now that you're gone, I lost my heart to the bottle Ooh oh oh I can't get over you you you, hey Love in a bottle, hey heyyy Oh, I miss you! I wanna see you tomorrow I wanna see you again I wanna see you tomorrow I miss you, you you you you I love you, you you you
