Now,
Dad is a very sensitive subject.
Just the
two of us again.
Oh, just
the
two of us.
Just the two of us.
Just the
two
of us.
Just the two of us.
From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms,
I knew I'd meet death before I let you meet harm.
Although questions arose in my mind,
would I be manning up against wrong to right?
And be standing up from the hospital that first night?
Took an hour just to get the car seat in right.
People driving all fast, got me kinda upset.
Got your home safe, placed you in your bassinet.
That night, I don't think once wink I slept.
As I slipped out of my bed to your crib I crept.
Tucked your head gently, felt my heart melt.
Cause I knew I loved you more than life itself.
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord please,
let me be a good daddy, all he needs.
Love,
knowledge,
discipline too,
I pledge my life to you.
Just the two of us.
We can make it if we try.
Just me and you.
Just me and you.
Just the two of us.
Just the two of us.
Building chiseled in the sky.
Just the two of us.
You and I.
Five years old,
bringing comedy every time I look at you.
I think man, a little me, just like me.
We can see,
gonna be tall,
make me laugh cause you got the dad's ears and all.
Sometimes I wonder what you gonna be.
A general, a doctor, maybe an MC.
Ha, I wanna kiss you all the time.
But I will test that butt when you cut out a line.
Do that, uh uh uh, why you do that?
I try to be a tough dad,
but you be making me laugh,
making me laugh.
I see joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy.
I pledge to you,
I will always do everything I can.
Show you how to be a man.
Dignity,
integrity,
honor and I don't mind if you move,
long as you came with it.
And you can cry, ain't no shame in it.
It didn't work out with me and your mom,
but yo,
push comes to shove,
you must conceive and love.
So if the world attacks,
say you side or crack,
remember one fact,
I got your back.
Just the two of us,
we can make it if we put our backs.
Just the two of us,
just the two of us,
just the two of us.
Just the two of us,
just the two of us, just the two of us.
It's a full time job to be a good dad.
You got so much more stuff than I had.
You got to study just to keep with the change in times.
101 Dalmatians on your CD-ROM.
See me,
I'm trying to pretend I know,
on my PC,
where that CD go?
Yo,
ain't nothing promised,
one day I'll be gone.
Feel the strife, but trust life does go on.
But just in case, it's my place to impart.
One day some girl's gonna break the heart,
and ooh,
ain't no pain like from the opposite ***.
Wanted her bad,
but don't take it out on the next son.
Throughout life, people will make you mad.
Disrespect you and treat you bad.
Let God deal with the things they do.
Cause hating your heart will consume you too.
Always tell the truth,
say your prayers,
hold doors,
pull out chairs, easy on the sweat.
You're living proof that dreams come true.
I love you and I'm here for you.
Just the two of us,
we can make it if we put our backs.
Just me and you, just me and you.
Just the two of us, taking the world.
Just the two of us, just the two of us.
You and I, can't nothing hold us down.
Just the two of us, hold my hand, hold my hand.
Just the two of us, just the two of us.
Just the two of us, building two houses.
Just the
two of us, you and I.
Taking on the world, taking on the world.
Just the two of us,
just me and you.
I'm always here for you.
Look over your shoulder, I'll be there.
Whatever you need,
just call on me.
We gonna rise, we gonna shine.
Whenever you need,
I'll be there for you anytime.
You and I.
Just the two of us,
just the two of us.
Just the two of us,
just the two of us.
Just the two of us.
Just the two of us.
That's a really good song.
I paid for this, Dad.
