Father's Day Lyrics

My daddy he told me to always go get it

A vision ambition the sky ain't the limit

Them years in the gym really taught me commitment

It ain't how you start it's about how you finish

Five in the morning we handling business

I'm shooting and dribbling running and lifting

I'm fighting I'm winning I'm so independent

My daddy he pushed me he said go the distance

We from the trenches but always was good

Never been street but I always been hood

My daddy sold weed and did what he could

He taught me bout life and he ain't need a book

Down in the dungeon he playing me tracks

Before I could count I wanted to rap

Was nine in the booth and I didn't look back

My daddy he taught me to never relax

Was done playing ball I cried when I quit

Wiped off my tears and I started to spit

He said if you do it then do it legit

Write you a plan and stick to the script

Writing and writing just want to be felt

No studio money I needed some help

Went to Best Buy and I ran up my credit to get some equipment I'll mix it myself

Stand on my ten what we doing it for

My daddy a g and he ain't raise a hoe

Paying to play just to walk in the door

Five minute set make it feel like a show

My daddy he taught me to speak with my chest

Outwork my peers just to prove I'm the best

Writing all night I don't care about rest

I need all the power the money the respect

The love and the praise when I step on the stage

I get it I get it I get it I get it

Crying and sweating through all of the pain

I did it I did it I did it I did it

The time and the money i give to the game

I spend it I spend it I spend it I spend it

The rules and the corners they put in my way

I bend it I bend it I bend it I bend it

And when times got tough always made it through

All the lessons I've learned yeah they came from you

Trying to be a better man and a father too I know I know

My daddy he taught me to always go get it

And now imma daddy I got to go get it

But tell me the price that we pay for ambition

This money I'm spending can be they tuition

Lately I feel like my presence is missing

A gift and a curse tie the sky with a ribbon

I wonder if they got some good intuition

A cry and a whimper to tell me I'm tripping

I'm gone on the road tryna figure it out

With industry niggas just looking for clout

Back in the city my fam in a drought

I flood with excuses then storm out the house

Record with my son so he see how it is

His cries and his laughs be all in the mix

I'm holding my daughter while I'm writing this

Everything that we do it's because of our kids

That's what I say but I do it for me

I'm selfish I'm greedy a dog I'm a beast

My daddy he taught me to eat I'm a feast

But now he be sayin I'm needing some peace

Identity crisis the roles that I play

From father to artist it's night and it's day

Don't need no complaints get out of my face

My daddy said get so I find a way

My son and my daughter I love y'all the most

I give y'all the world from writing these quotes

I'm thinking about you when I'm on the road

Y'all papa he taught the gems that I know

Through all of the darkness I'm always your light

I'm with you forever I got you for life

And when I'm not there continue to fight

Just play all my songs if you need my advice

The love and the praise when I step on the stage

I get it I get it I get it I get it

Crying and sweating through all of the pain

I did it I did it I did it I did it

The time and the money i give to the game

I spend it I spend it I spend it I spend it

The rules and the corners they put in my way

I bend it I bend it I bend it I bend it

And when times got tough always made it through

All the lessons I've learned yeah they came from you

Trying to be a better man and a father too I know I know

Act two the world is a façade
