Dear Dad

Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna be the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna be the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
I got too much pride I had to do it on my own
Crying in the dark room man I felt alone
Praying on my knees man I had to change my tone
I need to have a talk dad I hope you call my phone
I’m not a little boy dad you know I’m a man now
But I still feel like a kid with his hand out
I wanna spend some time man lets make a couple plans now
Wanted you as a boy but I need you as a man now
Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna be the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
I really cant blame you dad for the shit you did
I never understood I was just a little kid
Just tryna see the world for what it really is
It was what was and it is what it is
I cant hold this grudge cause its tearing me apart
You and mom went ya separate ways then you grew apart
I always had clothes on my back you always did your part
Just wanted your protection when they was shootin at the park
I wanted all the lessons, the birds and the bees
How to go to college, how to get a degree
How to change oil, how to change a tire
How to tie a tie so I could fix my attire
Its all good dad man I swear you forgiving
I learned a lot from you while I watching from a distance
It takes a real man to raise another nigga children
Lets take a vacation dad and really start livin
Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna be the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
Times really changed and the clock is always running
I'm tryna be the best man I'm tryna be something
Grew up on food stamps man we came from nothing
I gotta have faith cause I know my time is coming
