See my daddy taught me how to ride my bike
|
I said my daddy taught me how to fly my kite
|
Daddy even told me stories to put me at sleep at night
|
Daddy told me don't trip and everything gonn be alright
|
When we was hungry, daddy went found some food
|
Before he went to work, daddy even walked us to school
|
Daddy was late on the bills,
|
And still brought us some shoes
|
And daddy never made us ill like it wasn't cool
|
You ain't perfect sometimes, you like to smoke and drink
|
But your educators told us we gonn be what you can't
|
And daddy walked by the bus, if we lie and still
|
He was tough but he still kept it real
|

When I got sick, daddy took me to the hospital
|
When I felt better, it was icecream and popsicles
|
Daddy taught me things that no man ever taught me
|
Daddy showed me how to fight say you'll never be a sucker
|
Daddy call broke down, we was dry when we rode that bus
|
Daddy held our hand, smiled when mom would fuss
|
He said yeah, y'all better chase your dreams
|
Cause these streets ain't what they seem
|
And going to jail ain't an option
|
Believe me go and can nobody stop you
|
From the hood, but still could be a pro, a lawyer or doctor
|
And raise your family, could never be a dead beat
|
Daddy taught me how to be strong
|
That's how he raised me
|
