| It’s like I’m living happy now
|
| My daughter saying «I love you, Daddy"now
|
| And that kinda juice me up
|
| My daddy didn’t know his daddy
|
| And he wasn’t much of a daddy to me
|
| It wasn’t all his fault, he wasn’t taught and that just added to it
|
| Coma from a bike wreck… hold up, hold up, mic check
|
| 'Fore I pour my soul out for some folks that I ain’t twice met
|
| I never saw my parents together, I got one picture
|
| When you get one side of the story, you most likely got some issues
|
| Always told I just look like him, same demons I fight 'em
|
| Can’t believe the pain won’t leave, it’s the same reason I’m writing
|
| I better do better, now and forever, never say never
|
| I never say no, my daughter gone be spoiled rotten if I let her
|
| Damn near cried from what Ki’elle told Roy in a letter
|
| Once they old enough to miss you, and you no longer together
|
| That’s regretful
|
| It’ll tear you apart, hurt you in the worst way
|
| Missing them firsts and them birthdays (Hm.)
|
| Recitals, games and them field days
|
| Gotta be there to scare the prom date
|
| I can still hear my mom say, «We don’t need him look, we straight
|
| Made it this far without child support
|
| And he don’t pay bills where we stay
|
| Plus he cheated while I was still pregnant with you
|
| So what happened next was just an excuse»
|
| Think she see him when she looking at me
|
| I grew up having to deal with that too
|
| Damn
|
| «Ain't like I’m still 5 years old, y’know? |
| Ain’t like I’ma be sitting up every
|
| night, asking my mom 'when's daddy coming home,' y’know? |
| Who needs him?
|
| TO HELL WITH HIM! |
| I’ll be a better father than he EVER was. |
| And I sure as hell
|
| don’t need him for that, CUZ AIN’T A DAMN THING HE COULD EVER TEACH ME ABOUT
|
| HOW TO LOVE MY KIDS… How come he don’t want me, man?»
|
| Gotta forgive yourself first, had to be there so I left work
|
| Come to find out if your heart empty, it don’t matter what your net worth
|
| Living for a social network, dying for the attention
|
| I’m enjoying my truth even though y’all lies look so convincing
|
| I been dancing to Baby Shark, when she go to sleep I watch Ozark
|
| More to life than going live, I’d rather go to the park
|
| Can’t lie I’m tired of Elmo. |
| But she can’t tell though
|
| Face that look just like me, act just like me, that I can’t tell no
|
| Told her momma I hate her (eghh), that’s how I felt though
|
| Deep down wishing we could all just stick together like velcro
|
| My last fling had daddy issues, so she looked for love in the Chanel store
|
| Just like street niggas my father figures so I grew up wanting to sell dope
|
| No patience, anyone can make a baby
|
| Take a man to be a real father, I done learned a lot from a lil' toddler
|
| (That's real) Leave it to me and she will prosper
|
| You a deadbeat then we ain’t potnas
|
| Can’t keep causing these same problems
|
| (Daddy issues…) |
