Carlos Perez - Marley's Song lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Rushing through maternity We spent like 12 hours in this room God damn, sh** feels like an eternity I keep asking are you out yet I know your mama probably want to murder me We told the nurse to close the curtains please I keep peeking, I'm so impatient I can't help it I just want to be the first to see The little me or little you or little I But I was no longer I When I first heard you cry Doctors took you away We thought that you might die All that I could think is I ain't even get to say goodbye Looked your mama in the eye She was so sad She said go dad, sh** was so bad Facing the biggest fear that we both had And this is what I scribbled in my notepad I told you I would would spend all my life [Chorus] Baby I would spend all my life Trying to do right by you And I never leave you lone at night I'll be there when you need me to And even though I know you might Miss me when I'm gone I just hope you know Know that I do it all for you Yeah (x4) I do it all, I do it, I do it all Do it all for you [Verse 2] You were just a couple weeks old I used to wrap you in a blanket cause your feet cold I would tell you how proud I was you made it through Whisper to you cause your mama still asleep though Every hour you would cry and I would feed you And I would think about the things I want to teach you I just want to be the dad that I never had I wonder if you needed me like I need you I used to love picking out your outfits Then show you to your mama like how's this I ain't have a job and I loved that Cause every day you who I'm at the house with And you your daddy's boy, like to laugh lots And I would rather that you have more than have nots So I got back on the music so could have lots And this is what i scribbled in my laptop I told you I would spend all my life [Chorus] [Verse 3] Right around your first birthday I was going through it in the worst way Music wasn't moving I was struggling So every single night I had to work late Fighting with your mom cause she don't see That a lost cause what I won't be And even though I know she got a 9 to 5 I still feel like all the pressure's on me And you were too young, to really know what it meant Daddy can't afford rent, cause daddy don't got a cent So daddy had to leave, just know it hurt me a lot To know I'd never get back the time I spent I mean I left my little guy lone And took away a shoulder you could cry on And now I wish that I could fly home So this is what I scribbled in my iPhone I promised I would spend all my life [Chorus] [Outro] Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord my soul he keep If I should die before I wake I pray you always see your daddy's face You were my heart when I was close to dying My guiding light, all that I rely in So when I'm weary I keep moving on And I owe it all to Marley Ryan
