From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms,
I knew I´d meet death before I´d let you meet harm.
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough?
Against wrong, choose right and be standing up.
From the hospital that first night,
Took a hour just the get the carseat in right.
People driving all fast, got me kind of upset,
Got you home safe, placed you in your basonette.
That night I don´t think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt
Cause I know I loved you more than life itself
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord please
Let me be a good daddy, all he needs
Love, knowledge, discipline too
I pledge my life to you
Chorus:
Just the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I
Verse 2:
Five years old, bringin comedy
Everytime I look at you I think man, a little me
Just like me
Wait an see gonna be tall
Makes me laugh cause you got your dads ears and all
Sometimes I wonder, what you gonna be
A General, a Doctor, maybe a MC
Haha, I wanna kiss you all the time
But I will test that butt when you cut outta line, true that.
Uh-uh-uh why you do that?
I try to be a tough dad, but you be makin me laugh
Crazy joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy
I pledge to you, I will always do
Everything I can
Show you how to be a man
Dignity, integrity, honor
And I don´t mind if you lose, long as you came with it
And you can cry, ain´t no shame it it
So if the world attacks, and you slide off track
Remember one fact, Iv´e got your back ,son
Chorus
Verse 3:
It´s a full-time job to be a good dad
You got so much more stuff than I had
I gotta study just to keep with the changing times
101 Dalmations on your CD-ROM
See me-I´m
Tryin to pretend I know
On my PC where that CD go
But yo, ain´t nothing promised, one day I´ll be gone
Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong
But just in case
It´s my place
To impart
One day some girl´s gonna break your heart
And ooh ain´t no pain like from the opposite sex
Gonna hurt bad, but don´t take it out on the next, son
Throughout life people will make you mad
Disrespect you and treat you bad
Let God deal with the things they do
Cause hate in your heart will consume you too
Always tell the truth, say your prayers
Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears
You´re living proof that dreams do come true
I love you and I´m here for you
