Rap N' Roll - Daddy Issues

This is a story bout a man
Who use to hold my hand
Everyday down the street when we was walking to atlantic
Told me don't panic, things are getting frantic
Moms passed away he's moving in instead of grandma
I was happy cause I was a daddy's boy
He introduced me to family, took me around all the moye's
I was staying up late, eating chips, drinking quarter waters
Having family dinner while watching source awards
Damn daddy where you go? damn daddy who you know
Called you like seven times why you ain't answer the freaking phone
Damn daddy who you with? damn daddy this some shit
Use to love you to death now you somebody I ain't fucking with
We left new york you said you need a change of scenery
We at your girlfriends house, her kids was mean to me
You said you had some business to handle in bk
But did you forget you left your two sons in va
And still I chose you and still you chose to
treat me like somebody you was never close to now I'm suppose to
treat you like a father figure when I got a little older, I'm like you not my father nigga
You ain't never done nothing that ain't benefit yourself
And when you did something I pretended that it help
When really all I felt, was angry and bitter
We was never a family except for when it came down to dinner
And all the pain and the lies
Put tears in my eyes
Used it for fuel
Fuel for the drive
Drive down this road, that I travel down
Save your goodbyes and your sorries, it don't really matter now
It ain't family issues it's daddy issues
It ain't family issues it's daddy issues
I ain't have no daddy around when I was growing up
That's why I'm wild and I don't give a fuck
Ya'll think cause I'm wild that Imma give it up
Well you goddamn right its time to live it up
Imma do what's best for me, I don't know what's next for me
We couldn't live together so we had to do it separately
Find yourself texting me
What you want
What you want
Now that I'm older you wanna reconcile
It's too late now you should of focused more on your child
You should have played ball with me, maybe taught me a sport
Instead you played numbers and fucked around with the whores
Now you want my attention, now you want me to focus
Hate hate when I see you but act like I didn't notice
Man you living a truth and I'm living a lie
Wish I can hate you this much, trust me I tried
Never taught me what a real man was
Or how to be one
Never taught me how to love a woman
Or how to treat one
Never taught me how to manage money
I guess that's how you managed to take it from me
But still I rise, I'm alright
I don't need you in my life
So I move on move on
It ain't family issues, its daddy issues
So I moved on moved on
It ain't family issues, its daddy issues
So I moved on moved on
Instead I should've been telling
The story about my cousin
Who gave me all the loving
At the time that I needed it cause I was really suffering
At the time it was nothing, at this time it is something
That lead me to temptation like my name was david ruffin yeah
It ain't family issues, its daddy issues
It ain't family issues, its daddy issues
And I cant lie, I got a lot of problems with you
Take me to mcdonald's and we order off the dollar menu. It's crazy
You my father but you let my cousin raise me
It's daddy issues
