DADJU – Papa (English lyrics)

Pre chorus :
There’s nothing left to eat
You turned your back on me
You said that you would be back
But you never cam home
The school asked me
How is your father doing ?
I said that you would be back
But you never came home

Chorus :
Dad, where are you dad ?
Mom is crying, oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Dad, dad
Where are you dad ?
Mom is crying oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Oh oh ah

1st verse :
My dream was to become a plumber (uhm eh)
I wanted to be like you, your foot my foot
To me you were the strongest man in the whole world
One of the only person I could open up to
Everyone is laughing about it back at school
I’m sick of having to correct them
My dad is gonna back
I know that he love us, he just has to
I don’t know how to react from it
They’re not in my shoes, they can’t understand
In the end I don’t have anymore friends
And I think that it’s your fault if I’m neglected

Pre chorus :
There’s nothing left to eat (Et tozo nzala)
You turned your back on me (dis moi, t’es où ?)
You said that you would be back (umh)
But you never came home (eh)
The school asked me (and the school asked me)
How is your father doing ? (where are you ?)
I told them that you would be back
But you never came home

Chorus :
Dad, where are you dad ?
Mom is crying, oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Dad, dad
Where are you dad ?
Mom is crying oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Oh oh ah

2nd verse :
In the end you left without looking back (uhm eh)
Mom took over your role and continued
And now I’ve grown up, I learned how to breath on my own
Back then I neither had the time, or the money to be disgusted
You better never come back
If you ask my heart it has forgotten about you
I Have so many things to tell you
But I prefer showing you who I am, eh
I had anger to offer you
My goal in life is to never be like you
I ended up not hating you anymore
But I still don’t know if I’ve forgotten you, yeah

Pre chorus :
There’s nothing left to eat (Et tozo nzala)
You turned your back on me (dis moi, t’es où ?)
You said that you would be back (umh)
But you never came home (eh)
The school asked me (and the school asked me)
How is your father doing ? (where are you ?)
I told them that you would be back
But you never came home

Chorus :
Dad, where are you dad ?
Mom is crying, oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Dad, dad
Where are you dad ?
Mom is crying oh dad
Where are you dad ?
Oh oh ah

Outro :
You’re leaving us to fetch for ourselves
Your heart is locked Dad, dad (X8)
Ooh aah
