Ocean Skies Lyrics - Ludaversal - Ludacris

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 enough 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 them empty cans 

Waking up, crying in the night, hearing arguments 

Hands off my momma, somehow 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 known I wouldn't see you tomorrow 

I would've grabbed a hold of your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey 

But now you got me drunk off that pain, gone off that 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 

Yeah, I lost my father to the bottle 

Functioning alcoholic's 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, where the paramedics rushed him 

Any and everybody who met him, instantly loved him 

Ironic how conjure 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 known I wouldn't see you tomorrow 

I would've grabbed a hold of your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey 

But now you got me drunk off that pain, gone off that 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 

Not a day goes by that I don't miss you, 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 'em 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 in my Grammy speech 

It's almost like you waited just to see me win 

Well, pops I can't wait until the day we meet! 

If I had have known I wouldn't see you tomorrow 

I would've grabbed a hold of your heart, and put your love in a bottle, hey 

But now you got me drunk off that pain, gone off that 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 

Can't get over you you you, hey 

Love in a bottle, hey hey 

Oh, we miss you! 

(I wanna see you tomorrow) 

I wanna see you again 

(I wanna see you tomorrow) 

I wanna see you tomorrow 

I miss you, you you you you 

Oh I love you, you you you
