[Intro]
I guess I got a confession
I got daddy issues
In the sense of him not being here
Go figure right
I guess I'm a statistic
But fuck it
What a better time to tell him how I feel about him
Than on my debut?
So if your listening
Listen

[Verse 1]
Dear Father
What the fuck's the matter with you?
Was Mother not good enough, was I a fucking issue?
You begged for her to have me, crying into tissues
Now here I am n***a, you gone and I don't miss you
Why?
Cause you were one of these people that were inside your life
But you were never here, and so you never get that right
See, you never took a moment to teach me how to be a man
And yet you not being around is what made me into a man
The irony is murder, but I'll show you no gratitude
Cause mother was the only one to deal with my attitude
See mothers love and cherishing, fathers show discipline
But Mother was all I had, when I'd scream, she was listening
Listen n***a, I met you once and I hated it
It was graduation you missed, I live to replay this shit
Ain't this some shit? I wanted to save this for a while
I hope they cut your balls off, so this don't happen to another child
[Hook]
Dear Father
I'm gon' make you wish you took the time
To do your job as a man, and stay a part of my life
Dear Father
I'm gon' make sure you regret the day
You chose you didn't want me, and chose to walk away
Cause I'm grown now and doing it
Better than you ever did
And me being like you is something I never will
Live with it
Live with it
(You walked out)
Live with it
Live with it
(Look)
Live with it

[Verse 2]
Do you know how it feels to see your mother struggle?
Bills coming, meals needed, all this got her puzzled
Do you know how it feels to see her always shedding tears?
Cause a man she once loved, left her with a child and fears
Worried about survival, how to reward my grades
But as a child all these things never crossed my brain
Cause she wore a smile on her face, and always made it happen
And for that I'll give her the world, but as for you Father I'm snapping
Not a call or check up to see how your seeds doing
But when I blow up, if you call I'mma see through it
There would be a rare moment where [?] and you'd yell at the top of yours lungs how heartbreaking, slow
You'd hang up on my mother without a care 'bout how she feels
And the more I think about it, I just wanna grip the steel
But you ain't worth the ammunition
You ain't worth the trigger finger, or the fetal position
[Hook]
Dear Father
I'm gon' make you wish you took the time
To do your job as a man, and stay a part of my life
Dear Father
I'm gon' make sure you regret the day
You chose you didn't want me, and chose to walk away
Cause I'm grown now and doing it
Better than you ever did
And me being like you is something I never will
Live with it
Live with it
(You walked out)
Live with it
Live with it
(Lord Lord)
Live with it

[Verse 3]
I love thy Mother and Father, Lord you can hold
Me accountable cause it's something I don't condone
I'm not one to honor a man who don't deserve it
And mine just ain't worth it, in reality he's worthless
See my Lord, I understand he's my parent, but he ain't act it, he was just my transport to this planet
Dear Lord
He walked out on my Mother, so beautiful
So fuck that n***a, I won't be at his funeral
Dear Lord
As far as I'm concerned, you're the only Father I got
Cause his spot wasn't earned
And it burns, but it's bitter-sweet
I've learned life lessons from falling on my face without a man in my section
Just Mother oh Mother, and my stance on these feet
Each beef done with, I survived from these streets
Fully grown, and raw, with a talent that's well done
The seed turned to a better tree than it fell from
[Hook]
Dear Father
I'm gon' make you wish you took the time
To do your job as a man, and stay a part of my life
Dear Father
I'm gon' make sure you regret the day
You chose you didn't want me, and chose to walk away
Cause I'm grown now and doing it
Better than you ever did
And me being like you is something I never will
Live with it
Live with it
(You walked out)
Live with it
Live with it
Live with it

[Outro]
Yeah me
You one to dig
Love you Moms
*kiss*
Had to get that off my chest
