I think about you
Everynight and everydayHoping that you are doing alrightBecause I know those walls are closing in tightI know it's hard for you being away from the ones you loveWishing I could just give you a hugKiss your lips and tell you everything is going to be okBut I know I can't and that really tears me apartWishing that you would have never made that choiceTo do what you did to land you thereAnd sometimes at night it haunts me in my dreamsEternity is how long it seemsAnd sometimes I can't help but be madFeeling like you shoulda thought about the family you hadSometimes I just wanna scream at you and say "WHAT ABOUT US, DON'T YOU KNOW WE GOTTA DO THIS TIME WITH YOU I NEED YOU HERE TO HELP ME PULL THROUGH"but I know I gotta refrain myselfBecause none of that will change the situation at handSo I just smile and tell you I'm doing the best I canI encourage you and tell you it will be over soonI don't tell you about how I cry at nightWishing you were there to hold me tightI try to stay positiveI don't wanna be your burden to bearBecause I know its hard enough with you being in thereI don't tell you about how im barely getting byHow the kids and I are hardly making ends meetScraping to get by So to speakBecause your hustler mentality will start to kick inAnd I don't want you doing anything to keep in there longerSo I simply say "How are you doing dear, No need to worry everythings good here. You know I got you, imma hold it down, Everything is great I miss you much. The bills are paid the kids are fine. Stay encouraged and make sure you pray, and before you know it it will be touchdown day"I lie to you to help you pull throughBut the truth isI'm impatiently waiting for you
