Jahmiel - Real Father lyrics

Before me creep and know fi walk
Teach me a few words when me
No know how fi talk
Couldn't explain myself, me just know fi bawl
You deh beside me throughout this all

So me haffi salute you daddy
You show me what a father is
You never lef' when the belly a me mother big
When you a plan you think 'bout me future to
When nuff no have youth dem talk
A bag a good things dem would a do
But, you see when the child born
Him never tek the bicycle ride gone
Fi mummy no see him again
Him know 'bout school and all me teacher dem

Me say me respect goes out
To the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy
Yeah, my respect goes out
To the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy

And every Christmas and every birthday
Still a get a gift even
When it's the worse day
I remember seeing pictures of my first cake
You call me winner even when
I'm not the first place
You teach me fi count, you no easy fi doubt
You believe inna me, you really support
You tell me sky is the limit
You tell me reach fi the clouds

Me say me respect goes out
To the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy
Yeah, my respect goes out
To the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy

How the daughter fi born, father quit
Hear say she sick, nah visit
Years after she get a scholarship
Pity you never know, a karma this
That's my girl you proud fi say
The sound she state that was the only way
Her life never sweet like honey from no hive
Nuff no know how dem youth survive

Me say me respect goes out
To the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy
My respect goes out to the real father dem
You see everything you did for me
Whole heap a thanks me give daddy

Before me creep and know fi walk
Teach me a few words when me
No know how fi talk
Couldn't explain myself me just
Know how fi bawl
You deh beside me throughout this all

So me haffi salute you daddy
You show what a father is
You never lef' when the belly a me mother big
