[00:09.88] Look I just shed tears homie and now I ain't too proud to admit it
[00:14.01] Just seen my father for the first time in a minute
[00:16.31] And when I say a minute I mean years man
[00:18.94] Damn a whale could have swam in them tears fam
[00:21.30] Cause as I left them I reflected on my younger days
[00:23.62] When it was just me and my brother and my mother played
[00:26.36] Father cause no other man bothered
[00:27.79] Not even my biological, it never seemed logical
[00:30.66] But I accepted it cause I ain't know no better
[00:32.97] Thought I was brighter than a Polo sweater
[00:34.66] No pops was like Martin with no Coretta
[00:36.77] So many things you could have told me
[00:38.59] And saved me the trouble of lettin' my mistakes show me
[00:41.02] I feel like you barely know me
[00:42.65] And that's a shame cause our last name is the same
[00:45.21] That blood type flowin' through our veins is the same
[00:47.63] My mama left you and maybe your anger's to blame
[00:49.88] But that's no excuse, only you and God know the truth
[00:52.81] And why you only call monthly barely ever saw me
[00:55.62] Spend some summers with you and played with my cousin Maury
[00:58.06] Maybe I should be tellin' you f**k you cause you selfish
[01:00.56] But I want a father so bad I can't help it
[01:03.74] I break down, I break down
[01:06.85]
[01:07.92] Can't help but break down
[01:09.35]
[01:11.10] I break down
[01:12.32]
[01:13.25] I never thought I'd see my mama on that shit man
[01:16.13] It's f**kin' with her body now she sick damn
[01:18.61] I wanted a big house with a white picket fence and a pool
[01:21.43] Who would have ever thought that it would come to this man
[01:24.49] Quicksand is what this life feel like
[01:27.10] That shit these rappers kick is nothin' like real life
[01:29.85] You made a milli off of servin' hard white, yeah right
[01:32.66] My mama tell you what addicted to that pipe feel like
[01:35.21] Stupid niggas, I heard the cops be shootin' niggas
[01:37.90] I swear to God wish I could bullet proof my niggas
[01:40.89] Can't get no jobs but they still recruitin' niggas
[01:42.76] We tryna stand tall when it gets to crucial niggas
[01:45.68] Break down We break down we break down we break down
[01:54.29]
[02:16.63] Servin' time locked down
[02:17.99]
[02:20.03] And she don't want nobody to know his daughter 25 pounds
[02:23.29]
[02:25.04] By the time he get out she gon' be 4
[02:27.10] Now will his girl stay down
[02:28.60]
[02:30.28] Ain't no doubt she love him yeah that's fo sho
[02:32.40] But temptation stays round
[02:33.74]
[02:35.37] And if she strayed how could he ever know
[02:37.67] Never know and so she goes to the club on the weekend
[02:40.80]
[02:41.35] A little freakin but them niggas holla
[02:44.10] But she never speakin but tonight I see the devil creepin
[02:46.66] Cause she been lonely she ain't felt a man in 7 seasons
[02:49.53] Damn! She do the best that she can
[02:51.97] Her mama tellin' her to find another man
[02:54.21] She college educated with a felon boyfriend
[02:56.96] That's what she thinkin' tonight
[02:58.90] Maybe she's right but please
[03:00.64] Stay down mama! Gotta be strong don't break down mama
[03:04.57] Please stay down mama! Gotta be strong, don't break down mama
[03:10.00] Don't break down don't break down don't break down, don't break down
