| Getting all these thoughts in my head
|
| Cause I know that things will change
|
| Yeah I know that things will change
|
| Getting all these thoughts in my head
|
| Cause Tomorrow won’t be the same
|
| But tomorrow won’t be the same
|
| I pull up to the traffic light, red light, coasting
|
| Glancing the rear view as your eyelids slowly closing
|
| Adjust the radio turn it lower and let your song play
|
| Slowly go to sleep get some rest it’s been a long day
|
| I don’t need too much I just want to make my kids proud
|
| Wishing that her life can stay as peaceful as it is now
|
| Nothing stays the same though, day in to day out
|
| The forecast changes so you got to keep your raincoat close
|
| I hope that you and your sister can work through the bruises and blisters
|
| The sibling rivalry when you argue and bicker
|
| Lot of pain lot of joy
|
| You’ll go through what I went through with her
|
| Ain’t nothing to it if you keep your family rooted, ughh
|
| Don’t grow up too quick
|
| Enjoy the freedom when you’re young before you lose it
|
| You already trying to tell me that you a big girl
|
| I’m scared as hell to let my little baby grow up in this big world
|
| I will be asking where you’re going who’s your friends what you up to
|
| Over protective but that don’t mean I don’t trust you
|
| I just don’t trust everybody you go party with
|
| I’ve been in your position baby girl I know how hard it is
|
| And I know that you won’t agree with my rules
|
| Probably around the time you attending high school
|
| I’ll tell ya don’t smoke, don’t drink, or buy booze
|
| You’ll say that I’m a hypocrite cause I do it and get high too
|
| But do you really wanna look and feel like I do?
|
| At your age you don’t want to walk in my shoes
|
| Get up your marks get up your smarts get up your IQ
|
| The real party it don’t start until after high school
|
| So don’t stress who’s popular and less dressed
|
| Forget the peer pressure ain’t no one to impress
|
| Besides everyone in high school who seem cool
|
| That’s it; |
| they usually never see their dreams through
|
| There’s so many right and wrongs when you raise a kid
|
| I just want that father and daughter relationship
|
| I know in time, that we’ll argue and you’ll hate me
|
| But I pray to god you’ll thank me
|
| Like dad I’m glad you raised me |
