kelechi - like my dad lyrics

kelechi’s dad talking :

“we just were talking. i said “baby, do you have a boyfriend in nigeria?” eventually she said “yes, i have a boyfriend” that she planned to bring from nigeria. i said “you know what, forget about that thing in nigeria. you just found yourself a husband”

verse 1

chido got your name and your face, i got your grace
feeling like a politician maneuvering through his race
you wanna push the culture, the man won’t let you be great
you a big dog, they neuter poodles up in this place, it’s hard
you a prince, you coulda lived on your name
flеw to another country to try to do your own thang
gambled it all away to see the sh+t you could gеt
ironic, i gamble now, and i said that sh+t back on bet
young big whipper. gift giver. liq sipper
i’d be lying if i said i don’t worry about your liver
but you always showed my life strictly was for the livers
always felt the energy in a room would shift when you lit up
inherited your charisma, your last name, and your darkness
showed me you never fold, no matter how bad the cards get
tought me to bet on me, not matter how bad the odds
look daddy, your son’s an artist

stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)
(young stunna, stuntin’ like my daddy+oo)
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)
(young stunna, stuntin’ like my daddy+oo)
stuntin’ like my daddy+ooh
ooh yeah
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)
(young stunna, stuntin’ liek my daddy+oo)

four wives from your papa had set the precedent
examples of monogamy wasn’t ever set
i think about it so obviously retrospect
so i’ll accept the apologies that we’ll never get
you could have been a better husband, but honestly who could blame you?
you never finished dealing with demons and met an angel falling into your arms in this foreign country you came to
wanna be prince charming, you thought you saved her, she saved you
what ever you did….it’s whatever. i’m telling you this:
you never know the words your actions is telling your kids
we both been to los angeles to handle some biz
i’ll keep a lock on all the doors where your skeletons live
trust me with the key like your trusted me with the store
the love is still unconditional, whether or not we close
sometimes you think you’re sitting to spend a day with your folks
but it’s got telling y’all intergenerational jokes
you gotta laugh
“what is for you, is for you. what is for you—even though in life… even the clintons, the bush’s, obamas, and even this other stupid man that’s in the white house: there is no relationship without misunderstandings. but sometimes, you know, when you trace back, you sit down and you think: don’t challenge god because everybody in this life has a purpose. god made you for something. to accomplish something. until you’ve reached that your goal…look at you all today. can you imagine? if i did not meet your mom, there’d be n0body like kelechi, ezenwanyi, chido, ijeoma. you look at your disadvantages, but you compare them to what advantage you have really gained from being who your are. and your environment. and you say thank you lord”
