Destini Taylor - The Conversation Lyrics

I know why you are here
You've seen disturbing things
You can't believe your eyes
You now know what they've done to me
I start to feel your tears
And now you know my pain
But I can't take it back
Don't make relive this again

Daddy I want to forget this
Daddy I don't want to reminisce
Daddy they took my innocence
And you could not protect me from it

You thought he was your friend
A snake behind the scenes
Deception in his eyes
How could you let this be
The scars will never heal
So please just let it go
You want me to explain why you weren't the first to know

Daddy I think I was mad at you
Cause I really needed someone to blame
It pained me that you didn't notice
That something in your little girl had changed
Were the streets more important than me
I felt like you left your family yes
I'm only saying this cause you asked
This is the present and that was the past

I know it's not your fault
These secrets kept us far apart
And now you can have peace
Daddy please know you mean the world to me
I struggle keeping love
I seek protection from someone
Are you here to keep me safe
Are you watching me from Heaven's gates

Daddy I'm glad that I let you in
I wish I could be in your arms again
I don't want you to go away
But I understand you cannot stay
Daddy I'll see you in my dreams
Hopefully now you can get some sleep
I love you so much this isn't goodbye
