See that my intentions were good
Don't hate me shawty
Six, seven, eight, nine months and I ain't told mah folks
Her stomach gettin' bigger, and time is gettin' close
But I'm a man and I ain't perfect, if you hear me now
Not just Messiah mama, hell, I had told yo granny
So you think I sold yo dreams, but what I say I mean
See that my intentions were good
I broke yo heart when I told you bout the other one
I never even thought, to ask my mom what happened
We never had a chance, we was in different states
And now I only wish that you could
Had my son and turned around and had another one
Just knew that you was livin' in Manhattan and I was trappin'
See that my intentions were good
Forgive me babygirl, I apologize and I still love you
And now I only wish that I could
But even if you hate me shawty
But pops, I'm just like you, I'm stubborn and I'm hardheaded
And now I only wish that you could
Eleven years ago I still regret me choosin' you
I still love you
I'll tell you wha had happened, when, why, where, how
I'm still the same man, just had a change of plan
It's been a secret, I can't keep it for another day
I still love you
How could I let you go? I thought I knew it all
But now you dead in the ground, no meanin' tellin' you now
See that yo intentions were good
And that's been killin' me inside, eatin' me alive
Now I only wish that you could
But now what's done is done, no matter wha, I'm still yo son
But it wasn't though, and you wasn't there
I still love you
See that my intentions were good
Don't hate me shawty
Hey, I still love you
When you deserved the best and more, you been through it all
But we wasn't 'posed to have a baby, we just chillin' out
That's all I knew, so I grew up thinkin' you ain't care
You sent me tons of toys and clothes thinkin' you gave enough
Meetin' you, pursuin' you and doin' you in '92
See that yo intentions were good
You fixed plates, showed yo face at every courtdate
It's not at all yo fault, you'd be better off blamin' me
I still love you
But then we destroyed the situation like a changed mind
Hey, I still love you
I'ma be right there prayin' you live to be a million one
Just take it to consideration, I was 17
But I'll forgive it, you was human and we make mistakes
Tryin' to get the cash and settle down and be a dad
And I can't find the words, nor the nouns or verbs
See that my intentions were good
And all you wanted me to do was call when I was out late
Lookin' at my own dirt, you got some nerve
And now I only wish that you could
I got a lil' girl, not just two lil' boys
I still love you
Baby, I still love you
We had a lot in common, almost the same sign
And I still love you
Finally I understand, hustlin', livin' fast
I still love you
Please, don't hate me, Shawty
If I ain't told you lately shawty
Don't hate me shawty
Me and yo mama met, we kinda kicked it off
Don't hate me shawty
Please, don't hate me, shawty
But I ain't ashamed of you, I'm more ashamed of me
Baby, I still love you
Please don't hate me shawty
I could care less if none of yo other children come
You probably never knew, 'cuz hey, I never said it
Now I only wish that you could
Never ask you back and fuck a wedding band but I still love you
Ay, I still love you
Don't hate me shawty
Forgave me once, forgave me twice, forgave me three times
How could I look her in her eyes and holla dat ain't mine
And now I only wish that you could
I stayed lyin', you stayed down in the meantime
Same goals, said thangs at the same time
But be that as it may, I got some shit to say
See that my intentions were good
I stay in trouble ha? Ain't got too much to lose
Don't hate me, shawty
Don't hate me shawty
How could I criticize my daddy on that last verse?
'Cuz I still love you
Knew I could lose it all but never thought of losin' you
But even if you hate me shawty
Now, I only wish that I could
I know it wasn't fair, but ay, it wasn't fun
But all I wanted was for you to be proud and I still love you
Three kids in two years, baby, daddy had it
But now I realize, where the problem lies
I still love you
Went from resentin' you, hatin' you, now I'm missin' you
On the realest shit I ever dropped, listen pops
You tried to make it up, but shit, you couldn't pay enough
I still love you
I still love you
To express whachu deserve, girl you worth the world
But even if you hate me shawty
