rise rashid - dear daddy lyrics

-intro-
dear daddy, i know you happy looking at me
the way i run these tracks you know these folks can’t lap me
hope that when i feel the breeze blow you going p-ss me
to tap me on the back and pat me like a proud pappy
ever since you left it’s like i’m short of breath
tryna walk it off i’m taking quarter steps
if all of this is part of life then we should call it death
because the place you laid to rest i’m sure is best
i wish that we could see the souls and ignore the flesh
so i could use it for my notes, cause you know life’s a test
i got your flow up in my soul, and your beat up in my chest
i’m connected to you daddy, so i know that i am blessed

-hook-
thank god for them fathers
we don’t don’t need no flowers we just need for you honor us
please forgive us for times of broken promises
cause god knows compared mom it’s not a lot us
so thank god for them fathers
so thank god for them fathers
and thank god for my father, because with out ya
i wouldn’t be the man that i turn out to, be

-verse 1-
some boys grow to men, and men a never grow
but this one ain’t for them, man this is for the ones that know
what it feels like to plant a seed and see it grow
and be the reason they be cheesing when they see you coming home
cuz even tho that’s mommas boy, you already know
it’s easier for me to teach him what he need to know
from how to read, and how to pee, and be man and feed a family
and show to believe in seeing dreams of what he can he
i gotta show my daughter what a man is
so she don’t settle for nothing less than a man’s rib
don’t wanna rush it but yo when she have that man kids
my grand kids, imma spoil like my dad did
d-mn.. thinking of my daddy in the p-ss tense
pardon my french but that there is some hard sh-t
i was a prince in your shuffle learning to deal with
what it means to be a king when the cards flip
my father, who art in heaven better off
imma take your name to the top and set it off
when the kingdom come and i stand in front of allah
if he forgive me for my wrongs me and you gone sing along…

-verse 2-
and for the men that raise kids who’s daddy’s ain’t even there
for whatever reason, that don’t matter you care
and to the single fathers that doing they daughter’s hair
and showing her how to sit, not showing her underwear
and praying that her p-b-rty is no where
but no matter where she need you you gone be right there
ready if she need a teddy you gone be that bear
and be a lion to them tigers anytime she scared
shout out to the single mother’s with them little brothers
that a teach ya kid his numbers and tuck him up in his covers
help him with his zipper or hit him with the clippers
show that bigger picture just being a father figure
they say it take a village, and that’s a village
with a field and a farmer, a father that’s gonna till it
my daddy didn’t cook but kept something in the skillet
and left a very big shoe, follow me while i fill it, yelling

-outro-
ps, i’m still dealing with this bs
tryna get my time in the game, but i see less
standing out of bounds right now yelling we next
i guess they think i’m playing round like its recess

i use to having you having around telling me just
stay focus on yo goals and you’ll be the best
the key to success is knowing we just
here for a short period believe in the test
put your knees on the floor, and your face to the east
just like the brother malcolm and muhammad ali
and when i’m gone promise to honor your momma for me
cuz you gonna miss her more than me when her time is complete
i’m tryna remember everything cuz everytime you would speak
it was music to my ears like everytime you sing
thank god for the rhythm you have given to me
clearly without ya, i wouldn’t be the man that i turned out to
be…
