Irish Father
The winds of injustice blow strong in this land
The voice of the Father is stifled and quelled
The cops and the courts are weighted against me
She can do whatever, I pay the fee
I’m guilty, she’s a saint, the mother’s always right
Don’t worry child I’m still in the fight!
The agents of the state are unfair and harsh
They sanction your dad for the love in his heart
I’m here for you son! I’m doing my utmost and fighting for you!
They’re trying to shut me down, but our love gives us strength until we have won!
Be strong son! Daddy sends his angels to you!
A crown of thorns around my heart. But I’m fighting, I’m fighting, I’m fighting for you!
Courts held in camera hide away the truth
Wrong medicine given, I scream abuse
Tusla won’t listen to a word that I say
It’s all for the mum, dads are muted and sent away!
I’m here for you son! I’m doing my utmost and fighting for you!
They’re trying to shut me down, but our love gives us strength until we have won!
Be strong son! Daddy sends his angels to you!
A crown of thorns around my heart. But I’m fighting, I’m fighting, I’m fighting for you!
