[Intro]

This shit fucked up though

Like, you got so many black kids growing up without their daddy's and shit

That shit affects you for the realest

That shit stays with you your whole life until you deal with it

And as black people we can't really talk about shit, you know

Yeah


[Hook]

No more worrying about what happens 'cause in God, yeah, we trust

Slept on empty bellies 'cause my mom ain't had enough

Daddy MIA, that nigga broke all my trust

Wake up 4am, hence, I was sleeping in class

Couldn't even focused

Calling on my aunt like 'can you hear me Aunty Docas?'

Can you please tell dad that's my weekend in October?'

Waiting on that nigga but he ain't even knew my shoe size


[Verse]

Five brothers, one sister

Five problems, one woman

Four daddies, all missing

My momma, my hero

That's how I ended up with all these bad abandonment issues

I swear it's only right if I can tell you that I miss you

Now a nigga grown, I got a daughter now

Trying hard not to repeat you, put in over time

I'm going hard for mine

Baby, know I got you

One thing we cannot help is how relations gonna turn out

Right now I got some problems with your mom but it's alright

My life has been about you

Either way you know I got you

Be present, yeah, I try to

But this song is not about you

It's about my daddy issues

How it gave me trust issues

Why I cannot trust easy

Just wanna spend my time with you

Baby, know I got you


[Hook]

No more worrying about what happens 'cause in God, yeah, we trust

Slept on empty bellies 'cause my mom ain't had enough

Daddy MIA, that nigga broke all my trust

Wake up 4am, hence I was sleeping in class

Couldn't even focused

Calling on my aunt like 'can you hear me Aunty Docas?'

Can you please tell dad that's my weekend in October?'

Waiting on that nigga but he ain't even knew my shoe size
