[First Verse]
Hey what`s up Pop? Or should I say Punk?
You supposed to be the Pop to that kid, but`cha don`t
I thought you was a man when I met`cha but fa sho
I know, you far from a man, you`z a hoe
Duckin` yo
Responsibility
It`s killin` me you do that
That boy just made his birthday, bet`cha never knew that
Since you never gave lil` man shit for his birthday
Do me a favor nigga, make me a license plate
Cuz I did everything for YO kid, you was supposed to
Makin` sure, the nigga grows up, nothin` close to you
Cuz if he did it`ll hurt me bad
I know that you`z a man, but man, you`z a fag
And, niggas like you givin` blacks a bad name
That`s the main reason I`m changin` his last name
I want you erased, out his past and his future
And if I ever caught`cha tryin` to touch YOUR child I`ma shoot`cha
You`re mad at the kid for shit, his Mama did
And you done jumped out his life and he don`t know who the fuck you is
But you did me a favor I needed badly
You gave me your family and I`m the Captain here
Your baby call me Daddy
Chorus (uncredited female singer):
Don`t mean to be offendin` you, but
Sometimes life is trife and cruel
Any kind of man`s got to understand
That somebody`s gotta do what`cha don`t wanna do
(2x)
[Second Verse]
Look at him, he`s growin` up to look just like you
A sight you gone barely see, cuz you`ll be locked up half your life fool
I write you just to tell you what`cha missin`
Prison`s no excuse when you be loose
You don`t pitch a fit to get him
I listen to him cry, and wonder should I chastize
Another man`s kid
No matter what he did
But shiiiiiit, if I don`t do it, it won`t get done
Mama, won`t hit son
Daddy, don`t get none
Go get the switch
Send a hit if you wanna
But you should send thanks
Cuz I done kept your Baby Momma off the corner
Taught your lil` kid what to do with his Pee-Wee Herman
How to survive this World of mackin` by stackin` what he be earnin`
How burnin` bridges ain`t smart
No matter how far you go in life you never know what`cha gotta cross
I wanna thank you for the life that you done gave him
But you should thank me cuz I done raised him
Your Baby call me Daddy
Chorus
[Third Verse]
Look, whenever you touch down nigga, A.M. or P.M.
I`ll pay you to see him to save him from bein`
Confused about who`s father and who`s Daddy
Cuz scars like that, later on would bruise badly
You`re sadly mistaken if you`re thinkin` I`ll be waitin`
Just to make, twenty-three to see, what`s shakin`
It`s enough takin` him, knowin`, that we ain`t the same blood
And havin` my other youngin`s and givin` the same love
My main grudge against you is there`s no sympathy
For your people but they`re gonna meet you eventually
And when they do I`m gone be with `em
Rippin` my ruger, trooper, Dad you done hit `em
Picture that, them four gone get`cha back
So unless you, totin` bombs you better be open arms
With liable explainations and verifications for everyone
And don`t lie to my fuckin` son
Your Baby call me Daddy
[Chorus to fade]
