Daddy's Home... [Tupac
speaking]
So...you say that like it means somethin to me You've
been gone a mighty long muthafuckin time for you to be comin home talkin that
'daddy's home' shit We been getting along fine just without you Me, my
brother, and my mother So if you don't mind, you can step the fuck off, pops Fuck
you! (Tupac) Had to play catch by
myself what a sorry sight A pitiful plight so I pray for a starry night Please
send me a pops before puberty the things I would do to see a piece of family
unity Moms always work, I barely see her I'm startin to get worried
without a pops I'll grow to be her It's a wonder they don't understand kids
today so when I pray, I pray I'll never grow to be that way And I hope
that he answers me I heard, guns unlike people take a look at my family a
different father every weekend before we get to meet him they breakup before
the week ends I'm gettin sick of all the friendships As soon as we kick it
he done split and then [uhh] shit ends quick How can I be a man if there's no
role model Strivin to save my soul I stay cold drinkin a forty bottle I'm
so sorry... (Chorus) I'm so sorry for
all this time for all this time for all this time (Wycked) Moms
had to entertain many men didn't wanna do it but it's time to pay the rent
again I'm gettin a bit older and I'm startin to be a bother moms can't
stand me cause I'm lookin like my father Shall I stay or run away tell me
tha answer moms ignores me and avoids me like cancer Grow up rough and
it's hard to understand stuff moms was tough cause it's poppa wasn't man
enough couldn't stand up to his own responsibilities instead of takin care
of me he'd rather live lavishly That's why I'll never be a father unless
you got the time it's a crime don't even bother That's when I started
hatin the phony smiles said I was an only child [look at mama's lonely
smile] It's hard for a son to see his mother cry She only loves you, but
has to fuck with these other guys (Chorus x2)
I'm
so sorry for all this time for all this time for all this time (Tupac) Man
child in the promised land could afford many ??? moms was there only when
pops was a no-show and Oh I guess ya didn't know that I would grow to be
so strong lookin kinda pale was it the ale that pops was wrong Where was
the money that you sent you would send me talked on the phone and ya sounded
so friendly Ask about school and my welfare but it's clear, you ain't
sincere hey, who the hell cares You think I'm blind but this time I see ya
comin, Jack You grabbed your coat, leathers broke now ain't no runnin back Ask
about my moms like you loved her from the start Left her in the dark, she
fell apart from a broken heart So don't even start with that 'wanna be your
father' shit don't even bother with your dollars I don't need it I'll bury
moms like you left me all alone G Now that I finally found you, stay the
Fuck away from me I'm so sorry... (Chorus x2) I'm
so sorry for all this time for all this time for all this time (Tupac
voiceover) I never meant to leave but I was wanted lost
too many people every house ?of which was haunted? had to watch the strangers every
brother was in danger If I was to keep you breathin had to have you out of
range Had to move one to lost my name to beat the number maybe watch my
back I had no happy home to run to Maybe it's my fault for being a father
living fast But livin slow, we'd have no dough ???? ??? showed me it was
wrong all along I wanted to make some dough so you could grow to be so strong It
took a little longer than I thought I slipped, got caught, and sent to jail
by the courts Now I'm doin time and I wish you'd understand all I ever
wanted was for you to be a man and grow to be the type you was meant to be Keep
the war fightin by the writings that you sent to me I'm so sorry... (Chorus
repeated till end)
I'm so sorry for all this time for all this
time for all this time |
