[Emeli Sande:] I'm writing this letter to tell you I
miss ya The
kids' doing better, we hold it together Saw Joe yesterday And he told me to tell ya, "to stay strong my bro" He said, "don't let them stress ya" Alicia starts school in a
couple of weeks And she so damn excited she's counting her sleeps And I'll send you some pics in her new uniform I'm so sorry, my baby, it's taking so long now I'll come to visit you soon Soon It's just you know, I
always got the
kids in the
afternoon (Whooo) And money's been low, so I'm doing whatever The
car had to go Got two jobs in the
summer And while I
remember, you know my girl, Stacy She found out she pregnant with twins, ain't that crazy? And Kenny's still mad But you know how it is, he'll come 'round eventually Don't take it personally No right or wrong way for dealing with this Everyone's still just adjusting, I
guess Yeah, I'll come to visit you soon Soon It's just you know, I
always got the
kids in the
afternoon (Whooo) And sometimes I
daydream that I'm at home cooking You come through the
door and say, "hey there, good-lookin'" I
miss how you touch me, I
miss how you love me And look how they robbed me, I
hate how they robbed me See Jake started speaking, his first word was, "truck" They say, "oh what surprise", just like father, like son There's some days when the
kids acting so fucking angry It's breaking my heart when they asking, "where's daddy?" I'll come to visit you soon Soon It's just you know, I
always got the
