That I'll never be the daddy that she wants me to be
I been to hell and back and I'm still the same
I'm flat broke, still I refuse to lose
And how the kids looked up to me, yeah
Woke up screaming, 'Fuck the world today', I had it up to here
Ex-girlfriend got custody today 'cause they say she feels
'You don't have a plan, you're nothing'', is what they told us
You not here, so you ain't really givin' a fuck
My rent due, baby need food and shoes
Where a nigga just might see prison tonight
Ex-girlfriend got custody today 'cause they say she feels
Tell 'em that I'm on my way
That I'll never be the daddy that she wants me to be
'Cause L.T. got life and Big Ju got fifty
Woke up screaming, 'Fuck the world today', I had it up to here
Tryin' to put my hands on somethin', brush off my shoulders
Damn, look at what I call my life, a glock-9
Say a prayer for me and hug the kids, tell God all of the shit I did
And a eight ball of white, I got mine
The day dude fuck with Dre, I was feelin' like
Meanwhile, I'm livin' the life
Well, not quite, I got signed
But I swear, as long as I'm breathin', I'm hustlin'
Hardest thing I've ever had to do, sayin' bye to my seeds, oh
I really ain't got shit but I can't complain
Jimmy did his ten and D doin' his twenty
The block, hotter than flames but we sell the 'caine
Hardest thing I've ever had to do, sayin' bye to my seeds, oh
Remember what the O.G.'s showed to the soldiers
That I'll never be the daddy that she wants me to be
Ex-girlfriend got custody today 'cause they say she feels
So when I say, "Dirty", you say, "South"
That I'll never be the daddy that she wants me to be
Nobody cares and life ain't fair or free
If you see me in a suit and tie, tell all my niggaz goodbye
Gotta make it to heaven or die tryin' to get it
Woke up screaming, 'Fuck the world today', I had it up to here
I'm thuggin' and this is the reason because I
The hardest thing I've ever had to do, sayin' bye to my seeds, oh
And 50 put me right in the light, it took time
And how dare y'all try to lock me up
Buy up some land or somethin', get what they owe us
I'm 'bout to see if it's true what a Uzi do
Come get me, seems like it's no way out
Puttin' all kind of thangs in our baby's name
Tell the hoes, "I'm rich, bitch", like my name, Rick James
Hey, holla if you feel my pain
The best thang you can do is say a prayer for me
So I smoke, lookin' for the fools with jewels
