The Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree

You left me so early before I could understand what I was about to endure  

I was sheltered from most of the drama that went on  
 
 As I begin to understand my surroundings & the situation I was in, suddenly there was no sight of you  
 
I heard the stories of how you ran your operation, in your respected city  
 
She suffered & I was too young to comprehend what was going on  
 
I’ma stranger to you but your blood runs through me  
 
I was pulled away & force fed information I couldn’t prove cause you disappeared  
 
We’ve never met, introduce yourself as a man not as my father
