I dedicate this song to all the kids out there

Growing up without they father in they life

That's some real serious shit

Y'all listen

I know i'm not perfect but i strive to be

Feel it



I met you at only five months, spittin image of a one night stand

Between woman and man

Beautiful baby girl, not a worry in the world

I see the sun rise in your innocent eyes and i'm hypnotized

Lemme tell you bout life and bout the way it is

Oh this world ain't nothing like folks say it is

Lemme protect you from these years to come

Bout a fairy tale life far away from the slums

You'll be mines if i could rewind time

You know me so long though, you got them killer eyes of mine

When you get older you understand

Especially when your peers tell you mac was one hell of a man

I never met your real dad

And i never meant for this to make a nigga feel bad

And that's my word, you couldn't understand the essence and this i know

Cause i was there to watch you grow

Is you feeling me



Daddy do you love me and if so

Why you wasn't there to hug me and watch me grow

Daddy do you love me and if so

Why you wasn't there to hug me and watch me grow

Daddy do you love me and if so

Why you wasn't there to hug me and watch me grow

This is what it sound like

Growing up without your godfather in your life



Young black male growing up without a father figure

Ha ha ha, makes it that much harder nigga

Trying to be a man with no example of a man

Mama doing what she can but she can't show you how to be a man

And this is where we break down

We used to be cops and robbers, turn into shake down

Now we living like rebels, born killers

We born to be kings and queens nigga, on the reala

I
