letra de fatherless - justin torres
[intro: will smith + (lou)]
daddy-o! wazzup?
(i’m glad you’re here.. some business came up i gotta handle
so we’re gonna have to put uh.. our trip on hold)
yeah that’s cool, that’s cool (just for a couple weeks)
mhm. i understand (maybe a little longer..)
yeah, whatever. whatever
(it was great seeing you, son)
you too… lou
(verse 1)
when it came to money i ain’t have that sh-t
reachin’ into my mama’s pocket tryna grab that sh-t
but i never stole from her, my bills was nonexistent
so i had none & paid none, what a worthless son, isn’t it
ironic, that i grew up, fatherless
– but became more of a man, way more than my father is?
– my mama told me i ain’t gonna be what he became
– staring into the mirror & our looks are quite the same
– but i never even seen him before, we share the same trait
– so when i look into the mirror i’m lookin at who i hate
– i’m lookin at someone who was never there for my health
– so lookin in the mirror, was i never there for myself?
– did i never care for anything i did in the past?
– cuz i was too scared i’d end up just like my dad?
– it’s sad, cuz when i look into the mirror i see tons of potential
– but eric, what’s stopping him, is a son that miss you
[hook 1: will + (uncle phil)]
pfft, you know what actually this works out better for me ya know the slimmies in summer come to cl-ss wearing next to nothing ya know what i’m sayin?
(will it’s alright to be angry)
aye why should i be mad? i’m sayin, at least he said goodbye this time
(i’m sorry, if there was.. something i could do..)
aye you know what? you ain’t gotta do nothin uncle phil
aye you know, ain’t like i’m still 5 years old ya know?
ain’t like i’ma be sittin up every night askin my mom ‘when’s daddy comin home?’ ya know?
(verse 2)
– i told myself that i’m not him
– if i should have a son then i got him, never will i drop him
– give him everything that my father could never give me
– if mom left too think about how my wrist would be
– man, this sh-t is sickening
– hoping that what i’m saying reaches dead beats listening
– your son is up asking mama why are you never there for him?
– you ran cuz you were scared but honestly i’m more scared for him
– n-gga, & then you wonder why i’m mad
– any n-gga can make a son, but a man becomes a dad
– you were thinking nothin would happen if you enter it raw
– no condom at all, but homie you done entered it wrong
– ’cause now a little you is growing up, you showing up?
– to his graduation or play? look n-gga ’cause i know it’s tough
– but you is so sad, see i got no plans
– to talk to my father, not as a kid or a grown man
[hook 2: will]
got through my first date without him, right
i learned how to drive, i learned how to shave, i learned how to fight without him
i had 14 great birthdays without him, he never even sent me a d-mn card
to h-ll with him!
i ain’t need him then, & i don’t need him now
(verse 3)
my father left me on the day i was born
& right then & there i learned i’ll grow up feeling alone
this is a message to anybody that’s just like me
you don’t need him, you just gotta live life free
don’t become anything he did
throuought the years you’ll learn that eventually you don’t need him
don’t care if i don’t see him, he dead to me
rest in peace, eric, don’t care bout anything he says to me
you’re sc-m to me, & you’re s-d-stic
left me growing up as just another statistic
another lil kid without a father, askin’ a million questions
force his mother to play both roles, like tyler perry is
there’s nothing left for me to say to you
but i’ma pray for you, hope that one day that the lord will save you
but don’t you ever come lookin for me
but if we look the same look in the mirror & think that you’re just lookin at me
[outro: will + (uncle phil)]
(will…)
nah you know what uncle phil? i’ma get through college without him
i’ma get a great job without him, i’ma marry me a beautiful honey
& i’ma have me a whole bunch of kids, i’ma be a better father than he ever was
& i sure as h-ll don’t need him for that, ’cause ain’t a d-mn thing he could ever teach me, about how to love my kids
… how come he don’t want me, man..?
