I remember a long time ago i was a little girl
You and mommy i looked up to yall was my world
The things you did back then i didn't understand
But im older i get it now im here to be a helping hand
You promised me you would give it up and you did
I loved you for that i looked up to you as a kid
Daddy why go so many steps back when you came so far
you overcome so much you almost conquered it all
Daddy why would you let drugs get ya joy
this is not no game they are not a toy
Daddy why give it all up so far in the game
I look in your eyes nothing is the same
your too strong to let this get u down
Since i found out i just pray so you will come around
you got through it once i know you can do it again
I know how you feel but daddy this not the end
I'm sorry for not being the son u wanted to have
But i know some parts of our lives together i made you glad
I want to blame myself but i just cant
You taught me weakness never win over a man
Daddy Why are you doing this to yourself
You never hurt you if necessary you hurt some one else
Daddy why you still have Adrianna to raise
Please just take it day by day
Daddy why would you let those that mocked you be right
Promise me this battle of life you will fight
I am here for you no matter what
I wont let you see my pain i will be tough
You make me wanna fight and at times cry
I love you no matter what but i just want to know
