Forgave me once, forgave me twice, forgave me three times I stayed lyin´, you stayed down in the meantime Had my son and turned around and had another one I broke yo heart when I told you bout the other one I stay in trouble ha? Ain´t got too much to lose Knew I could loose it all but never thought of losin´ you
Eleven years ago I still regret me choosin´ you Meetin´ you, pursuin´ you and doin´ you in ´92 You fixed plates, showed yo face at every courtdate And all you wanted me to do was call when I was out late How could I let you go? I thought I knew it all When you deserved the best and more, you been through it all You think I sold yo dreams, but what I say I mean Just take it to consideration, I was 17 I´m still the same man, just had a change of plan Never ask you back and fuck a wedding band But I still love you

Went from resentin´ you, hatin´ you, now I´m missin´ you On the realest shit I ever dropped, dissin´ pops I never even thought, to ask my mom what happened Just knew that you was livin´ in Manhattan and I was trappin´ We never had a chance, we was in different states But all forgiven, you was human and we make mistakes You tried to make it up, but shit, you couldn´t pay enough You sent me tons of toys and clothes thinkin´ you gave enough But it wasn´t though, and you wasn´t there
That´s all I knew, so I grew up thinkin´ you ain´t care I know it wasn´t fair, but ay, it wasn´t fun But now what´s done is done, no matter wha, I´m still yo son I could care less if none of yo other children come I´mma be right there prayin´ you live to be a million one Finally I understand, hustlin´, livin´ fast Tryin´ to get the cash and settle down and be a dad You probably never knew, cuz hey, I never said it But pops, I´m just like you, I´m stubborn and I´m hardheaded But now you dead in the ground, no meanin´ tellin´ you now But all I wanted was for you to be proud
I still love you

How could I criticize my daddy on that last verse Lookin´ at my own dirt, you got some nerve But be that as it may, I got some shit to say
It´s been a secret, I can´t keep it for another day I got a lil´ girl, not just two lil´ boys And that´s been killin´ me inside, eatin´ me alive And I can´t find the words, nor the nouns or verbs To express whachu deserve, girl you worth the world But I´m a man and I ain´t perfect, if you hear me now I´ll tell you wha had happened, when, why, where and how Me and yo mama met, we kinda kicked it off But we wasn´t ´posed to have a baby, we just chillin´ out We had a lot in common, almost the same signs Same goals, said thangs at the same time
But then we destroyed the situation like the a changed mind How could I look her in her eyes and holla "Dat ain´t mine" Her stomach gettin´ bigger, and time is gettin´ close Six, seven, eight, nine months and I ain´t told mah folks Not just messiah mama, hell, I had told yo granny Three kids in two years, baby, daddy panicked But I ain´t ashamed of you, I´m more ashamed of me It´s not at all yo fault, you´d be better off blamin´ me But now I realize, where the problem lies Forgive me babygirl, I apologize And I still love you
Don´t hate me shawty Please don´t hate me shawty Cuz I still love you Now I only wish that you could See that my intentions were good
Don´t hate me shawty Please don´t hate me shawty Cuz I still love you Now I only wish that you could See that my intentions were good
