Coolio - Smilin' lyrics
[Coolio - Smilin' lyrics]
Got me smilin again smilin'
Again you got me smilin', again
One night of pleasure nine months of pain
Three days later and that's when you came
Two arms two legs ten fingers ten toes
Brown eyes like mom
With your grandmothers nose
Even though you're momma's baby
And daddy's little baby
My love is unconditional to one
Of us is swayze day or night, roll the light
No matter what you do
Like the Jackson 5 said I'll
Be there for you coz
My life is your life and your life is mine
To thinkin'en I'm your friend 'til
The end of time
I'll make sure you get your props
You can call me pops
And anything you need I'll pull
It out of the stops
Even though we're not together like
We used to be d A D D Y, you can count on me
Coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
I take a look into your
Eyes and then smile again
Forget about Batman
Superman and the Power Rangers
Coz I'mma be your hero if
You ever in some danger
This ain't the huxtables and
My name ain't Cliff
No matter how old you get you
Could get that ass whipped
Daddy don't take no mess
And I ain't gone settle for nothing
Less than your very best
When I do what I do coz you did what you did
It's coz I ain't the kind of father
That be raising no dum-ass kids
You gosta be a leader
It's my responsiblity to teach ya
Right from wrong
And make decisions of your own
I never said that I was perfect
But I know that you're worth it so
I'ma do my damnest to make
Sure you get some chances
So just listen to your daddy coz
He tryin to tell ya something
And don't let nobody tell ya I
Don't love ya coz they frontin'
Coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
I take a look into your
Eyes and then smile again
Every day is a struggle when
Life is like a puzzle
That we gotta put together
Together so and ever
You need a shoulder to cry on
And someone you can rely on
Your daddy's home
I'm tryin'a build a foundation on
Which you could stand
When you's a grown woman and
You's a grown man i got open ears when the
World ain't tryin' hear
When I can't be there in the flesh
I be there in the spir-it
I'm tryina make an impression on the
Things that you care for
The knowledge that I give
You could teach your kids
I know it's hard growing up coz
I used to be a youngsta
So we don't work as a team
Saw the liquor take us under
People let me tell ya about my best friends
Coz I'm down with the children all
The way 'til the end
Coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
I take a look into their
Eyes and then smile again
