[Ghetts - Fatherhood lyrics]
My girlfriend told me she pregnant
I quit smoking weed the same day
Hugged her and showed my affection
I wan' be the world's best dad
So I'm guilty of over-protection
I feel like the wealthiest man
Now, I ain't my only reflection
I see me in my daughter
Characteristics I can carry my kid with
A smile on my face and carriage assistance
I handle my business the lord is my witness
And now I know why her mum
Gave me a hard time lord, forgive me
I had my parents worried every night
Now I feel like karma's gonna get me back
Now I have my own child
I've been enlightened
I can be the father some never had
I ain't gonna lie at first I was frightened
Now I'm like 'there ain't one better dad'
CJ told me the level of
Excitement can't be explained
Not by any man, and he weren't lying
Cause I ain't never felt how I feel right now
I feel like crying
I ain't never feel like I feel right now
I used to feel like dying
Now, I got a little girl I can live for
And I'mma give my little girl
What she wish for
Here we're lying i feel like crying
I used to feel like dying
Now I got a little girl I can live for
And I'mma give my little girl
What she wish for
Three weeks ago my little
Girl had an operation the op went well
Then they had her under observation
But the nurse on the night
Shift gave her an overdose
She's in the wrong occupation
My little girl was alright but
We still want some compensation
I see grief for my daughter
Tubes coming out of her hands and feet
Little madam asleep in the incubator
And I ain't ever prayed so much in my life
Life of an entertainer
They wanna keep the old Justin alive
But I don't wanna entertain you
My little girl's gold dust in my eyes
And I know that I love her dearly
I love her more as each day goes by
And I love my baby mother sincerely
That's why I ain't the same old I
If you know me, you can see that clearly
I ain't a player and the game knows why
This kind of love don't come around yearly
Unique told me the flame won't die
And he weren't lying
Cause I ain't never felt how I feel like now
I feel like crying
I ain't never feel like I feel right now
I used to feel like dying
Now, I got a little girl I can live for
And I'mma give my little girl
What she wish for
All I know is I wanna watch my daughter grow
And all I hope
Is I'm alive when my daughter evolves
All I own
Is a clean heart and a tortured soul
And all my goals
I've achieved harder according to most people
I'm already a made man
Look how many haters I've made fans
Made grands and I still
Never appreciated my life
Until I created a child, she's amazing
The first time that I held her
My knees were shaking
The first time I saw her smile
I said "she's an angel"
If I ain't got a place in heaven, I'm pissed
Cause I've already caught me a glimpse
I already spend every day
Where the devil exists
And I know what these sorcerers think
I gotta protect her from the
Life of measuring risk
She'll be talking before I can blink
Nathan told me the kids are developing quick
And my daughter has been since
So he weren't lying
Cause I ain't never felt how I feel right now
I feel like crying
Cause I ain't never felt how I feel right now
I used to feel like dying
Now, I got a little girl I can live for
And I'mma give my little girl
What she wish for
