[Intro]

(LowLowTurnThatUp, hey)


[Verse 1]

Mother's Day came around, I ain't get the chance to tell you in person

I send cards off to my daughters even though they can't read in cursive

Father's Day come around, I swear to you it feel the worstest

'Cause when I ain't talk to em in a couple days that shit feel like a burden

I be on stage like it's all good knowin' deep down it's hurtin'

And they be askin' me for my time, they ain't tryna see no purses

And I sent them off so many times, they startin' to tell me to merch it

And I don't feel likе a father on Father's Day, that shit the worstеst


[Chorus]

Tell 'em I'm sorry, forgive me

I'm tryna be they daddy, they daddy


[Verse 2]

I'm on the 'Gram tryna flex

I bought an Audemar Piguet, nah, I still ain't gon' buy my son his pet

I was thirsty to fuck this bitch one day and he text me like "Play catch?"

I text him back, tell his mama do it, that's why I don't really get no respect

Zayden got real love for me, I know

Angelo got love for me, I know

Du’mier got real love for me, I know

I know

Baby Sky got love for me, I know

Big Sky got love for me, I know

Bella B got love for me, I know

Willow got love for me, I know

And I blame everybody for my problems, I ain't blame myself

And I think money solve my problems, I need help

My nieces and nephews, they need me, can't leave them

All my brothers keep 'em, my sister need me, I need them

When I catch a case, I gotta beat them

I don't pay child support but I take care of 'em, I don't see them

How I'm The Voice but I block my kids phone? Now they gotta DM

I send some threats to the phone knowin' somebody else gon' read them

'Posed to talk about college, tryna get them this knowledge

'Posed to be with them every day, I'ma make it up, I'm sorry

Smurkio, he a real nigga, take care of his fam, he solid

How I'm a real nigga, I ain't seen my kids, I'm just honest

I'm on FaceTime they don't even pay attention

They dropped the phone when I tell them I miss 'em

I'ma do way better, way-way better to get them

I'ma do way better, way-way better


[Interlude]

And I be sayin' like to everybody, to real, I'm a real nigga, right

I say i’m The Voice, y'all see me take care of my people

You know I feed the homeless, take care of the hood

I take everybody around me, I take care of their families

But that shit be hurtin' me, 'cause it be like

I don't be doin' that thing I'm 'posed to do for my kids

Like I do for 'em, but I don't see them

And you have niggas smile in your face

Don't even tell you like, man, you bogus

That's why I just came to reality, know what I'm sayin'

I just wanna say that I'm sorry, I apologize

Let's get it


[Chorus]

Tell 'em I'm sorry, forgive me

I'm tryna be they daddy, they daddy

(Tell 'em I'm sorry, forgive me

I'm tryna be they daddy, they daddy)
