kendrick lamar - father time (live on snl) lyrics

[intro: miles teller]
once again… kendrick lamar

[verse 1: kendrick lamar]
i come from a generation of home invasions
and i got daddy issues, that’s on me
everything time them four walls had taught me
them habits bury deep
that man knew a lot, but not enough to keep me past them streets
my life is a plot, twisted from directions that i can’t see
daddy issues ball across my head, told me, “bump a foul”
i’m teary+eyed, wanna throw my hands, i won’t think out loud
a foolish pride, if i lose again, won’t go in the house
i stayed outside, laughin’ was my friends, they don’t know my life
daddy issues made me learn losses, i don’t take those well
momma said, “that boy is exhausted,” he said, “go ____”
if he give up now, that’s gon’ cost him, life’s a b+tch
you could be a b+tch or step out the margin,” i got up quick
i’m chargin’ baskets and falling backwards, tryna keep balance
oh, this the part where mental stability meets talent
this the part, he breaks my humility just for practice
tactics we learned together, sore losers forever, daddy issues
[chorus: sampha]
early mornin’ wake+ups, practicin’ on day+offs
tough love, bottled up, no chaser
neat, no chaser, neat, no chaser
neat, no chaser, neat, no chaser

[verse 2: kendrick lamar]
i got daddy issues, that’s on me
lookin’ for “i love you”, rarely empathizin’ for my relief
a child that grew accustomed, jumping up when i scr+ped my knee
if i cried about it, he’d surely tell me not to be weak
daddy issues, hid my emotions, barely expressed myself
men should never show feelings, being sensitive never helped
his momma died, i asked him why he goin’ back to work so soon?
first reply, “son, that’s life, bills got no silver spoon”
daddy issues, bump everybody, get your money, son
trust yourself, trust n0body, only your momma’nem
this made relationships seem cloudy, never attached to none
so if you took some likings around me, i might reject the love
daddy issues kept me competitive, that’s a fact
i don’t give a f+ck what’s the narrative, i am that _____
when kanye got back with drake, i was slightly confused
guess i’m not mature as i think, got some healin’ to do
egotistic, zero+given ____ and to be specific
need assistance with the way i was brought up
what’s the difference when your heart is made of ____
and your mind is made of gold
and your heart is made of _____, but it may weaken your soul?
my homies ain’t got a daddy, grow up overcompensatin’
learn somethin’ ’bout bein’ man, learn something’ ’bout bein’ gangsta
i love my father for helpin’ me to take off the gloves
’cause everything he said i ____ was everything i was
and to my partners that figured it out without a father
i salute you, may your blessings be neutral to your toddlers
it’s crucial, they can’t stop us, you see the mistakes
’til then, i give the women a break, grown men with daddy issues
[chorus: sampha]
early mornin’ wake+ups, practicin’ on day+offs
tough love, bottled up, no chaser
neat, no chaser, neat, no chaser
neat, no chaser, neat, no chaser
