Freddie's dead beat dad

Lyrics

[INTRO] Oh Freddie, can you hear me now? This song's for you, let me tell you how, A story of a man who lost his way, A father who chose to stray. [VERSE 1] You promised the world, said you’d be proud, But found you sipping whiskey, lost in the crowd, Your laughter fades, it’s drowned by the noise, While I’m here alone, just a forgotten boy. [CHORUS] Oh Freddie, why he got to go? Chasing shadows in the neon glow, While you’re stuck waiting on a love that’s thin, A no good father, where do I begin? [VERSE 2] You’re dancing with strangers, holding them close, While I’m at home wondering, who needs you most? Those late-night calls, they never come through, Just empty promises, oh where are you? [CHORUS] Oh Freddie, why he got to go? Chasing shadows in the neon glow, While you’re stuck waiting on a love that’s thin, A no good father, where do I begin? [BRIDGE] Every drink you take, every heart you break, You’re losing me too, with each choice you make, I’m screaming for help, but you’re too far away, Caught up in your pride, you’ve thrown it all away. [CHORUS] Oh Freddie, why he got to go? Chasing shadows in the neon glow, While you’re stuck waiting on a love that’s thin, A no good father, where do I begin? [VERSE 3] Time ticks away, and I’m learning to cry, Lessons from a man who was never nearby, Yet in my heart, there’s a flicker of light, Hoping one day you’ll want to make it right. [CHORUS] Oh Freddie, why he got to go? Chasing shadows in the neon glow, While you’re stuck waiting on a love that’s thin, A no good father, where do I begin? [OUTRO] But I’ll rise and I’ll shine, I’ll find my own way, You’re lost in your bottle, but I’m here to stay, So here’s to the future, no longer in chains, Freddie,
