Rhyme 1:
|
|
One night of pleasure nine months of pain
|
three days later and that's when you came
|
two arms two legs ten fingers ten toes
|
brown eyes like mom, with your grandmothers nose
|
even though you're momma's baby
|
and daddy's little baby
|
my love is unconditional to one of us is swayze
|
day or night, roll the light
|
no matter what you do,
|
like the Jackson 5 said I'll be there for you coz
|
my life is your life and your life is mine
|
to thinkin'en I'm your friend 'til the end of time
|
I'll make sure you get your props
|
you can call me pops
|
and anything you need I'll pull it out of the stops
|
even though we're not together like we used to be
|
D A D D Y, you can count on me
|
coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
|
I take a look into your eyes and then smile again
|
|

|
It's coz I ain't the kind of father that be raising no dum-ass kids

Rhyme 3:
|
|
Every day is a struggle when life is like a puzzle
|
that we gotta put together
|
together so and ever
|
you need a shoulder to cry on and someone you can rely on
|
your daddy's home
|
I'm tryin'a build a foundation on which you could stand
|
when you's a grown woman and you's a grown man
|
I got open ears when the world ain't tryin' hear
|
when I can't be there in the flesh I be there in the spir-it
|
I'm tryina make an impression on the things that you care for
|
the knowledge that I give, you could teach your kids
|
I know it's hard growing up coz I used to be a youngsta
|
so we don't work as a team, saw the liquor take us under
|
people let me tell ya about my best friends
|
coz I'm down with the children all the way 'til the end
|
coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
|
I take a look into their eyes and then smile again
|
