[Intro]
“I work and work ‘till I´m half-dead, and I hear people saying, ´She´s getting old,´ and what do I get? A daughter who cares as much about the beautiful dresses I give her as she cares about ME!”
[Couplet 1]
Let´s do this for these babies
Mercedes truck, fuck, houses on acres
Blatantly ballin´ on HD
Y´all need to step up y´all AV
Life changed again I was already taking off
My flight changed again
Slight change of winds
It´s barely 12 noon and my wife changed again
Baby need Pampers
Daddy need at least three weeks in the Hamptons
Please don´t judge me, only hugged the block
I thought my daddy didn´t love me
My baby getting chubby
Cue that Stevie Wonder music, aww isn´t she lovely
Now I´m staring at praying that things don´t get ugly
And I´m stuck in that old cycle like wife leaves hubby
Fuck joint custody
I need a joint right now
Just the thought alone fucks with me
[Refrain]
High on life
I could die from the fall
Imagine if I hit the floor
Apologies in order
To Blue Ivy my daughter
If it was up to me
You would be with me
Sort of like daddy dearest
[Interlude]
"Don´t fuck with me fellas. This ain´t my first time at the rodeo."
[Couplet 2]
I dream filthy (my mom and pops) mixed me with Jamaican
(Rum and whiskey) what a set off (what a set off)
And I know I´m not perfect baby
I been through so much trauma
It gonna be hard to reverse it
With some doctors and some nurses maybe
Teach me on how to treat a lady
Open doors on the ´Cedes
This relationship shit is complicated
All I know is we ain´t speaking everyday
I fucking hate it
I don´t wanna duplicate it
I seen my mom and pop drive each other motherfuckin´ crazy
And I got that nigga blood in me
I got his ego and his temper
All is missing is the drugs in me
[Refrain]
"No... wire... hangers... EVER!"
[Couplet 3]
Father never taught me how to be a father, treat a mother
I don´t wanna have to just repeat another leave another
Baby with no daddy want no mama drama
I just wanna take her back to a time when everything was calmer
Out in Paris on a terrace watching the Eiffel Tower
And a Ferris wheel yet and still, nothing could prepare us
For the beauty that you be Blue be
Looking in your eyes is like a mirror, have to face my fears
Cheer up, why can´t you just be happy
Without these back and forth thoughts, you too much like your daddy
Badly I just wanna spent more time with him
Sadly life wouldn´t let me get around with him
Now I got my own daughter, taught her how to take her first steps
Cut the cord watch her take her first breath
And I´m trying and I´m lying if I said I wasn´t scared
But in life and death if I ain´t here
[Refrain]
