[Verse 1: Swami Netero]
I wish sh**
Could've been different/
Another baby born
Without a solid home to live in/
Since birth I tried to pivot
From this specific condition/
But I guess it's hard to miss it
When it's all you've ever witnessed/
We really should've split
From the moment you showed your britches/
But you were the only chick
That kept me going every minute/
Could never make amends
There's been too many bad decisions/
And if you make one again
Then I know I'll get sent to prison/
I can't say I don't love you
But I'm convinced we're malignant/
So, rather than see the crypt
I'll choose to love you from a distance/
If only for our kid
'cause she deserves a happy crib/
Even if that means she's got to live
With just one of us in it/
Don't know how I'ma visit
When I still don't even whip it/
And you'll live ten hours away
At least while she's still an infant/
But I'm the one that did this
So it's up to me to fix it/
Got to face the consequences
'cause that's just the problems of a young dad/
[Hook(x2): Saphir & Swami Netero]
Saphir:
Ain't no turning
Back time now/
I don't want to think
About the past, so/
My inner fire
Brings the light out/
?
My soul/
Swami Netero:
Ain't no turning
Back time now/
You made your bed
You got to lie down/
You ain't allowed
To get psyched out/
You got a life you got to
Try and guide now/
[Verse 2: Swami Netero]
Sometimes it makes me
Want to cry, yo/
'cause neither of my parents
Had both of theirs in their lives/
And they split right before my eyes
So I'm just tryna break the cycle/
But it seems more unlikely
The more time that pa**es by/
'cause all we ever do is fight
I swear it's bound to drive me psycho/
Not tryna lose my mind
And turn into the very guy/
That my mother had always liked
Punching holes all over our nice home/
I'd rather die than become
Just what I despise most/
So I'm going ghost
Before the violence gets to wild/
'cause, know denying, i can see it
In your eyes you're spiteful/
Been a while since you smiled
But you're 'bout to have our child/
So we got to be her idols
Instead of acting like rivals/
I hate to jeopardize
The family that I fantasized/
But tryna subscribe to that design
Will only excite our trials/
I got to keep it mindful
'cause that's vital while we try/
And come to a compromise
'cause that's just the problems of a young dad/
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Swami Netero]
Yo, I'm about to go berserk
'cause that ain't even the worst/
What really hurts is you saying
I can't be there for her birth/
Just 'cause I won't f**ing be with you
'cause it ain't never worked?/
I'm sick of taking these chances
Yo, I'm thinking long term/
But I put that on the turf
If you try to keep me from her/
I'ma go and cop a chopper
Just to run in their and merk/
Every doctor, every nurse
And everyone you let observe/
Just to teach your a** a lesson
'bout robbing me for the first/
Chance I'll ever have to prove to her
I'm with her 'til the dirt/
'cause that's an opportunity
That'll never return/
If it was me or her
Then I'd gladly be in a hearse/
sh**, if I ever had to choose
Then I'd pick her over the earth/
Over music, over units
Over loot that I can splurge/
Just so I can be the parent
That my parents never were/
And show her that she's cherished
More than I can put in words/
But you just don't seem to care
'cause that's just the problems of a young dad/
