(i love you daddy)

i remember february 27th, 1994

tryna make it to the hospital through 3 inches of snow

somethin's goin' wrong, i can tell but i don't know

i got this feelin' in my gut, this ain't how it's supposed to go

three pounds, two ounces and two months premature

straight to the incubator, is she gon' make it, dey ain't sure

automatically, i placed the blame on my health

hell i'm a father mayne, i placed the blame on myself

was it somethin' dat i smoked, did i eat or did i drink it

or was it somethin' i was doin', dat i did or did i think it

uh, watchin' her breathe through a hose in her nose

what's dis ekg machine, what's dis shit on her toes

it's 94, i'm 85 so i'm spooked as can be

i'm prayin' and i'm askin' why he do dis to me

see, i used to hold you in the palm of my hand

and just to see you pull through... shit, i knew you'd pull through



you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you



march the 22nd, 1999

the year and the date i got my little man

i guess i felt how my father felt and his father felt

and his father must've felt to see his self

it's like a little me in the flesh

he got my blood and my heart in his chest

needless to say man, i love him to death

teach him if he disrespect me, i'ma love him to death

left to go outta town right after he was born

i got a record deal, three months later, daddy was gone

it's like i'm tryna raise him over the phone

he barely know my face when he see it, but he know my tone

i'm up at night like do he know who his daddy is

i'm real close to sayin' fuck the showbiz

but when i herre him call his daddy, nah

and when i herre him tell his friends i'ma be just like my daddy, nah

hope he forgive me for the sacrifice

so he can have a better life... than i had



you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you

don't you know i'd die for ya

i laid out my life for ya

i would die for...

you
