(i love you daddy)
i remember february 27th, 1994
tryna make it to the hospital through 3 inches of snow
somethin's goin' wrong, i can tell but i don't know
i got this feelin' in my gut, this ain't how it's supposed to go
three pounds, two ounces and two months premature
straight to the incubator, is she gon' make it, dey ain't sure
automatically, i placed the blame on my health
hell i'm a father mayne, i placed the blame on myself
was it somethin' dat i smoked, did i eat or did i drink it
or was it somethin' i was doin', dat i did or did i think it
uh, watchin' her breathe through a hose in her nose
what's dis ekg machine, what's dis **** on her toes
it's 94, i'm 85 so i'm spooked as can be
i'm prayin' and i'm askin' why he do dis to me
see, i used to hold you in the palm of my hand
and just to see you pull through... ****, i knew you'd pull through

you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you

march the 2nd, 1999
the year and the date i got my little mind
i guess i felt how my father felt and his father felt
and his father must've felt to see his self
it's like a little me in the flesh
he got my blood and my heart in his chest
needless to say man, i love him to death
teach him if he disrespect me, i'ma love him to death
left to go outta town right after he was born
i got a record deal, three months later, daddy was gone
it's like i'm tryna raise him over the phone
he barely know my face when he see it, but he know my tone
i'm up at night like do he know who his daddy is
i'm real close to sayin' **** the showbiz
but when i herre him call his daddy, nah
and when i herre him tell his friends i'ma be just like my daddy, nah
hope he forgive me for the sacrifice
so he can have a better life... than i had

you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you
don't you know i'd die for ya
i laid out my life for ya
i would die for...
you
