Daddy Songtext
von Life

I take care of my kids
I take care of my kids
I take care of my kids
I take care of my kids

You′re supposed to be a dumb motherfucker
I don't wanna say it
I never feel sorry for myself, but I′m admitted
Sometimes I get depressed for the state, I feel like quitting

In this life I'm living, I'm pressured to make the right decisions

A single parent who wants to talk but no one wants to listen

Most my niggers they don′t understand, they′re not in my position

Bunch of selfish, self-righteous bitches who doubt my vision

I got bitches with many kids but no time for them


But me, I raise my kids alone and trust me, I would die for them
There's not a thing I wouldn′t buy for them
While other kids, they never see their
Dads, just lay in bed and cry for them
With me the roles reversed, my children never see their mum
My son, seven, never seen his mum since he was one
Promise my daughter she'd visit, she never see her come
It breaks my heart ′cause every little girl, they need their moms
But unlike their mother, this brother, I would never leave them
I'm here to love and teach them, cuddle, comfort and feed them

My children are the only reason that my lungs are breathing
′Cause life I live for my kids, unlike a number of heathens
You think you're cool in the pubs and the clubs, boasting about
The pussy that you fuck, but can you raise your kids, what?

Listen
Let me put you on to something
You ain't real
Listen
Think about it

Nothing I hear greater than being called daddy
Sometimes I feel like I be tripping but I′m never falling

I stand strong for when the voice of adversity′s calling

I work from awake in the morning, I'm talking washing and
Cooking and cleaning and sweeping, believe in putting my all in
I hustle but struggle emotionally and mentally, and

Sometimes I think bad luck has been specially sent to me
But unlike other men there′s no crisis with my identity
I know who I am, in life I'm the man I was meant to be
But some fathers are bigger pussies than the ones they sleep with


And most of the things that I deal
With in life, they couldn′t deal with
Anyone can be a father, it takes someone special to be a daddy
Feed them when they cry at night and change their messy nappy
When I'm not happy I just look at my kids and they smile
That′s enough for me to know this life that I live is worthwhile
Fuck running speed, popping style and running after skins
I deal with my responsibilities no matter how hard it gets

Listen
Let me put you on to something
You ain't real
Listen
Think about it
Nothing I hear greater than being called daddy

The system don't wanna help me, they′d like to see me fail
They′d like to see my two kids in a home and me in jail
But like it or not, all they gonna see is me prevail
Can't even catch me no more with a little weed on sale
Music′s my hustle and the light at the end of my tunnel
I'm doing rhyme instead of crime, no time to get in trouble

I have to provide for the present and my children future

I have to set the standard, show them their daddy′s no loser
Whatever it takes, my will, it won't sever or break
But I don′t claim to be perfect, I made plenty mistakes

I've been so low I make the average floor look like a ceiling
But always get up, I'm more ready for life and its teachings
And life is a fight so I′m prepared to take a beating
My inner emotions on mics I′m not scared of revealing
I stay true to myself, regularly train, I ain't abusing my health
I stay strong mentally and physically
Lyrically and spiritually I′m focused like a camera lens
Defend my children if anyone tries to ramp with them
I keep it true with my kids and my pad and my pen
Whether the mic or my life, I stay on track until the end

Listen
Let me put you on to something
You ain't real
Listen
Think about it
Nothing I hear greater than being called daddy

Listen
Let me put you on to something
You ain′t real
Listen
Think about it
Nothing I hear greater than being called daddy
