[Verse 1: Arlo Maverick]	
Since the young heal quick
Should I endure more pain
Sometimes I feel sick
Knowing I own your name
Two sides to every story    
Should I know your pain
Affairs of the heart 
Maybe I'm your stain
Unanswered questions
So anger tampers my ration
Not sure what you imagined
But this convo gon' be passioned
Where do I even start
No better place then the intro
Alive and well
But Momma might as well have been a widow
Probably hard for you to hear
But I can't say that I care
When she
Needed a husband
Tell me exactly where
When I
Needed a father
Tell me exactly where
Now you
Seeking forgiveness
Can't say you'll find it here
Please forgive me while I hop up on this tangent
About the milestones in my life
You were absent
About the
Father's Day cards I'd make in grade school
But never had an address to mail to
Now should I say anything
That I can't take back
Think of all the debt
That you can't pay back 
Think of all the years
You can't play back
Maybe its just better we
Don't say jack
Cause Pops
I can't bond with you
I got some trust issues
And though my heart miss you
My anger won't give you
I'm still pissed at you
The very dismissal
Maybe it's' best if you
Yea, it's' best if you
… yea, it's best if you

[Chorus: Arlo Maverick]	
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget 

[Verse 2: Arlo Maverick]	
Momma
I know you love me
And though I shouldn't question it
My heart is full of doubt
From the many times I questioned if
You wish you never had me
Never met my father
Maybe you'd be happy
Maybe you'd farther
Cause 21 and pregnant
Wasn't part of your plan
With no time for assessment
You ain't wait on no man
Your trials and tribulations
No I don't know the half
Though life is complicated
Now and then you should laugh
See I avoided this discussion
Cause truth is interrupted
Percussions of assumptions
They ricochet, repercussions
I'm grown, no longer ducking
Please have this discussion
How dare you accustom
Your son to dysfunction
I know you worked harder
So I could work smarter
But have you pondered?
And are you bothered
With leaving me not physically
Certainly emotionally
Possibly why Grandma was so close to me
Now should I say anything
I can't take back
Think of all the years
That you can't take back
Daddy wasn't there
But it don't excuse that
Why you rarely smiled
And I barely know your laugh
See mom
You stayed silent
So quickly I accepted
That love is rarely public
Guess my issues with affection
Stem from only huggin you on holidays
Sorry it's one of many things that I gotta say
… one of many things that I gotta say

[Chorus: Arlo Maverick]	
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)		
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget (Change of Heart)
I found it in my heart to forgive
But I can't say that I'll ever forget
