FOR THE KINGS WHO KNOW THEY STILL HAVE GOT WORK TO DO
DEAR DADDY
IT’S ME,
I’M NO LONGER A LITTLE GIRL.
I’M ALL GROWN UP NOW,
DOING MY THANG IN THIS BIG WORLD.BUT I’M AFRAID TO TRUST,
TO GIVE MY HEART TO ANY MAN.
CAUSE YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR ME,
I’M THE WAY THAT I AM.SEE I WATCHED MY MOTHER CRY,
DAY AND NIGHT BECAUSE OF YOU.
ON HER KNEES I WATCHED HER PRAYING
FOR THAT GOD TO SEE US THROUGH.SHE WANTED YOU TO LOVE HER,
SHE WANTED YOU TO LOVE ME.
WHERE WERE YOU DADDY?
CAN YOU ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS PLEASE?LIKE ON THE DAY I WAS BORN,
DID YOU HEAR ME TAKE MY FIRST BREATH?
MAMA SAID MY FIRST WORDS WAS DA DA,
WHEN I CALLED FOR YOU WERE YOU EVEN THERE?DID YOU WATCH ME TAKE MY FIRST STEP?
WERE YOU THERE TO HOLD MY HANDS?
ON MY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL DADDY,
WERE YOU THERE TO WALK ME IN?WAS THERE REALLY NO LOVE FOR ME?
IF NO, CAN YOU TELL ME WHY?
HOW COULD YOU JUST WALK AWAY,
AND NEVER SAY GOODBYE?I WAS YOUR LITTLE GIRL DADDY.
LOOK AT ME AND DENY THE TRUTH;
THE EXACT SAME BIRTH MARK DADDY,
SHOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH OF A CLUE.MY EYES ARE YOUR EYES,
OUR MOUTH AND NOSE THE SAME,
IF I HAD BEEN A BOY DADDY,
WOULD YOU HAVE GIVEN ME YOUR LAST NAME?YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THERE.
TO SHOWER ME WITH LOVE.
TO EXPLAIN TO ME DADDY,
WHY I WAS A GIFT TO BE ADORED.YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO WATCH ME GROW,
FROM A PRINCESS TO A QUEEN.
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO SHOW ME DADDY
A TRUE EXAMPLE OF A KING…
