League Of Starz - Daddy lyrics

[Intro] I remember somebody asked me If I think my life would of been different If I would of had my daddy in my life I thought about it for a minute And then sh** I probably wouldn't ever be sh** if I had my daddy The only reason I say that Cuz without my daddy I had to get out here and get it [Hook] I probably wouldn't be sh** if I had my daddy My daddy, my daddy If I had my daddy, my daddy I probably wouldn't be sh** if I had my daddy My daddy, my daddy If I had my daddy, my daddy I probably wouldn't be sh** if I had my daddy [Verse 1] Probably wouldn't have saw before Probably wouldn't even know how to grind Probably would of still been on the porch Probably would of had a sheltered life b**h I had to go and get it Had nobody hold my hand n***a I had to scrap for it Same sh** made me a man Soon as my daddy left Had to grow up fast Couldn't run to him for help Had to get up off my a** Had to get down in these trenches Had to come up with a plan Had to start making power moves n***a had to get some cash Had to get my hands dirty No more of that pretty sh** n***a had to man up Couldn't ask my momma for sh** Dad I still f** with him Ain't mad at him at all Did what he had to do I did what I had to dawg [Hook] [Verse 2] Momma was on E Daddy was on dope Brother was in the streets I was just learning the ropes Got tired of hearing no Trying to hear yes sometimes Got tired of begging people sh** had to go for mine Wasn't there for school plays Wasn't there for graduation Wasn't there to pay rent Wasn't there for conversation Add up my moves n***a Use em for motivation Out here head first No time for contemplating Know n***as that had dads They couldn't make it on their own Know n***as without one Grind like they f**in grown Come out they fold n***a Back up against the wall Tired of meeting them ceilings n***a Had to make em my own [Hook] [Verse 3:] I just look at it like that (that's how I look at it) I feel sometimes blessing in disguise, know what I'm sayin' And it don't mean I don't f** wit my ol' boy It's just A n***a that ain't got their daddy There's the whole Make a n***a grow up fast, know what I'm sayin' Lot of sh** I wouldn't of known, lot of sh** I would of never learned If I had a n***a to hold my hand, know what I'm sayin' When a n***a gotta go out here and get it All bets off n***a can't cry about it, n***a just gonna have to go and get it [Hook]
