Black Father

The other day I had a sit down with my baby girl She still real young but she aint dumb a must i keep it real She starting school I told her others may be cruel Just do what you suppose to do Dont follow what the others do it wont be easy But daddy knows best booc believe me Raising children even harder I dont know how to be a father My father barely bothered it was me my mom and Myra In that two bedroom apartment always wish we had our father See thats the problem too many black brothers leave they toddlers Then the single parent mommas gotta teach the kids survival Respect to my momma I appreciate your guidance But the loving mother oral couldnt keep me from that corner A man should raise a man that same man should teach his daughter Self respect and dont you ever let him put his hands on you Sometimes I wonder what if my pop way Malcolm Would my bad decisions harsh living still be the outcome Aint no power like the power of a black father He should impower the black children to reach higher The true role models is the black fathers And the mothers playing fathers cuz baby momma a strait coward Aint no power like the power of a black father He should impower the black children to reach higher The true role models is the black fathers And the mothers playing fathers cuz baby momma a strait coward Deadbeat daddies when you them in the streets they happy Most the time he playing daddy in another family Meanwhile his kid he grow up broken family with no daddy That dude that beat his mom and touch his sister his step daddy Then you got this other dude who love his kid Baby momma she a bitch and all she care about is bread Back and fourth to family court custody and child support Fill like your back against the wall best believe I feel you bul Cuz threw it all you gotta play your part It aint that baby fault that you and her dont get along See this more than just a song Some of these niggas is dead wrong Or maybe I just care too much about the kids who get left scared I salute that black father that father that stand tall Going to be there when times hard America clap for him Not only cuz he there but because he gon work harder To be a better man to his family than his father Aint no power like the power of a black father He should impower the black children to reach higher The true role models is the black fathers And the mothers playing fathers cuz baby momma a strait coward Aint no power like the power of a black father He should impower the black children to reach higher The true role models is the black fathers And the mothers playing fathers cuz baby momma a strait coward
