|
[Juelz Santana]
|
Daddy? (just to hear you breathing)
|
Damn man this shits crazy
|
Got a little son now, little me
|
Runnin around, its crazy
|
I'd do anything man, do anything
|
Life is precious, remember that.
|
|
And if i die then my child'll be a bastard
|
|
[verse 1]
|
I just had a newborn,
|
Shorty weighs 7 pounds, 6 ounces, 20 inches, too strong,
|
Im happy now, ima daddy now,
|
I gotta be there, i aint get to see my daddy around,
|
We aint never get to ball out kid,
|
I was young, the game caught him before i did, but
|
Back to you son, as for you son,
|
I'd do any and everything, thats the truth son,
|
From the dirtiest diaper, till you get old enough to dirty your nikes up,
|
Im your clean up man,
|
You ever need a hand, need a foot, need a heart, need a lung,
|
Reach for the phone, call me up son,
|
Yes, everything drops for you, everything stops for you,
|
I'll bury a block for you,
|
I'll let go every shot for you, and i'll reload the clip, just to make sho he's hit
|
|
[chorus]
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
[said] I gotta little boy to look after,
|
And if i die then my child'll be a bastard [x2]
|
|
[verse 2]
|
Everyday i look in your face, I sit back and i smile,
|
Look at his face, its just like mine, wow,
|
Damn, this kid shines,
|
Authority and prioritys, this kids mine, so,
|
That means i gotta beat him if i have to,
|
Keep him out of bad schools, teach him how to rap smooth,
|
Show him the ropes like, make sure his rope's tight,
|
No screws loose, no loose screws,
|
Got manners, got morals, got sense of respect,
|
Cause when you gone, boy thats all you got left,
|
You ever get craze for candy, dont take a strangers candy,
|
Open a strangers candy, those are the strangest candys,
|
I'm your rider, your guider, pusher, provider,
|
But most of all im your father and im just looking out for you,
|
When there's a problem, man im just looking out for you,
|
I ain't talking man, im just pulling out for you,
|
The ford, a sword, the hood'll come out for you,
|
And what im about to do, you shouldnt go out and do,
|
You just make sure your good to me, you good to mom,
|
Respect your elders, you grow to be good and strong,
|
|
[chorus]
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
[said] I gotta little boy to look after,
|
And if i die then my child'll be a bastard [x2]
|
|
[verse 3]
|
I raise you up in the sky, like behold,
|
The only thing greater then I, YOU, my greatest achievement,
|
F*** a platinum plaque, this is history in the making, believe it,
|
Without you i cant make or suceed s***,
|
I cant think, i cant wake up and eat s***,
|
You the reason, that im breathin,
|
And i will stop at any moment to see this, child live a better life,
|
Wow its a better life, but you better throw down if you ever fight,
|
Like Rocky do, dont be no punk when its time to get up and put on your boxing shoes,
|
You lace em up tight, you fall, get up fight,
|
You lose, oh well, we all lose some fights,
|
Just be a man about yours, life is all about handling yours,
|
So you just keep handling yours.
|
|
[chorus]
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
I gotta little boy to look after,
|
[said] I gotta little boy to look after,
|
And if i die then my child'll be a bastard [x2]
