Long Lost...

Every person has a void that needs to be filled
A reason for He or She to live and you'll know it when is revealed
I took a walk and sat down in a park, on a cool day
Relaxing, trying to clear my mind, and meditate all my stress away
I...noticed this individual walking in my direction
I felt a strange connection, he seemed to be a much younger reflection
Of someone that I know well, but I thought "Well,
Maybe I'm just tripping", but as he came closer and approached my heart fell
He said - "Excuse me sir, I'm not trying to throw you for a loot
And although you might not have a clue of who I am, I think I know you
Which you happen to know a lady named Evelyn
Whose family moved from Bucharest to the US, in the summer of 2012, when
You was a teenager" - "Yeah, I know her, I'm admitting that,
But what's your point, young homie? Just tell me what'cha getting at"
- "Well sir, no disrespect and I hate to be a bother
But if research that I've is correct then I think that you're my father"

Long lost piece of my heart where you been all my life?
It's been so many years without you by my side
And if I saw you, I'd probably break down and cry
I'd do anything to make things right.

- "Look here, lil' man, I understand if your daddy stuck you out cold
And it was prolly hard with your mama in a single parent household
But I'm sorry, and I'ma be straight with ya, no bad intentions
Me and your mama did mess a around, but, see, a child was never mentioned"
- "Well, on the cool my mama's married, so this might sound crazy
But amazingly my step-dad raised me since I was a baby
And for years my mama made me believe that he had made me
So imagine how I felt to know that they had played and betrayed me"
- "Well, let me ask you...What makes you so sure it's me?"
- "Well, I'll tell you
I found one of my baby pictures in a letter she never mailed you,
So seeking you out was something that I needed to do
Here's the note, read it, it's true
She was engaged to him, but she cheated with you"
- "Uhhh"
And she couldn't reveal to him you wasn't his
'Cause if she did that, a 20 year marriage wouldn't be what it is"
- "Yeah, and I love my mama, she raised me well and made me strong minded
But once I knew a part of my life was missing, I had to find it"

Long lost piece of my heart where you been all my life?
It's been so many years without you by my side
And if I saw you, I'd probably break down and cry
I'd do anything to make things right.

- "I promise you, I never knew back then
'Cause when the summer came, she and her parents left and I never heard form her again
Did you let them know that you know the truth?
See, news like this could go to roof off a whole family, especially once you show the proof"
- "Oh yeah, the whole truth came out,
See, we've been back in town for 7 years, and she said this is where you used to hang out
I've been wanting to say these words for weeks
I've been up here 4 or 5 times, but see, today I finally built the nerve to speak"
- "Well, the chance that I might not be is what's concerning me the most
But I can't permanently devote until I see paternity results
And if it's true you're welcome to come through
And we can do what fathers and sons do"
- "Just know that I'm not trying to get nothing from you"
- "Well, that's cool, even though you saying that I know this had been hard to go through
So regardless if it's true, I still owe you"
- "I appreciate your understanding and I won't be forgetting this"
- "It's all good, I think we need to go and handle our business"
