[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Young light skinned, born ??
~#**************#~
Since I was 10 probably name all the trouble I did
~#**************#~
Neva participated, Im like “fuck all them other kids”
~#**************#~
Like I dont owe you child shit when I make it big
~#**************#~
But a little respect, fuck yall though what do you expect
~#**************#~
Never raised a gentlemen like Ne-Yo said
~#**************#~
Lookin for hero heads, but I dont see none yet
~#**************#~
All my friends, weed & cigarettes so I take a hit
~#**************#~
*cough cough*, Thats some potent shit oh there go police man
~#**************#~
I aint scared of shit, but hell yeah I ran
~#**************#~
Lost my money clip ever since wrap rubberbands
~#**************#~
Biggity bam, did a couple of scams, made a couple of grands
~#**************#~
Fast forward to the Ford Escort, I ball with it
~#**************#~
Too quick 14 no license, thats some awful full shit
~#**************#~
Now must stack ketchup like condiments
~#**************#~
Kinda just wish you taught me how to be a man
~#**************#~
[Hook]
~#**************#~
Growin up all I wanted was a father figure
~#**************#~
Me & mom alone every dinner
~#**************#~
One day I hope you hear this I pray you doin better
~#**************#~
This what it sound like if I sent my dad letters
~#**************#~
If I sent my dad letters
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
One day I hope you hear this I pray you doin better
~#**************#~

[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Word is, 10th grade kick out the crib
~#**************#~
Like where I go from here, lucky I had a girlfriend
~#**************#~
Remember money make the world spin
~#**************#~
Runnin around the big body benz wonderin who in this
~#**************#~
Thats pedestrian, spoiled kid, never that
~#**************#~
Worked too hard to get where Im at, thinking fuck school
~#**************#~
But next semester I be back, I hated rules
~#**************#~
But ruling the world I often dream of that, dream of meetin you dad
~#**************#~
Moms really getting mad when I call you that
~#**************#~
I dont understand , your phone numbers all I ask
~#**************#~
She laughs with her jaw dropped like the movie Mask
~#**************#~
Damn so I then reply resort to raising my own little man
~#**************#~
But Im too young for that, wait I take that back
~#**************#~

[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Double 09 lately really its been on my mind
~#**************#~
The pain eatin me alive one verse at a time
~#**************#~
And this heart problem aint helpin at all
~#**************#~
Its a cardiac diagnose, just wanna stay at home
~#**************#~
Dying slow so I bought a fast car, and a couple of charms
~#**************#~
Now family and old friends wanna be involved
~#**************#~
Some nigga tryna marry mom he like my songs
~#**************#~
I find it odd sometimes wanna fucking shoot his head off
~#**************#~
Am in the wrong, didnt think so moving on
~#**************#~
Im working on my new album if you singing songs
~#**************#~
But rap is what I does, turnin 20 soon
~#**************#~
Then 21 then 22 like Emmitt was
~#**************#~
Everybody sleeping on me time to wake em up
~#**************#~
(wake, wake, wake em up, wake, wake, wake em up)
~#**************#~
Now everybody chasing us like they missed the bus
~#**************#~
And girls wanna roll like a blunt, P.S. your only son
~#**************#~
