Letter To My Daughter

(album: QPac - 2020)

(Mommy, India got the beats)
Ooh, ooh, I, ooh-woah-ooh-oh
Ooh, I, ooh-woah-ooh-woah

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl
You the only one know how I feel
Run it up just to buy the whole world
I don't care if it cost a hundred mil'
Want you to know you the only one
Made me change the way that I live
As a child, promise you gon' have fun
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

Bought a queen size crib for my baby
Right by you, I'ma lay there
Tell you some stories 'bout how your mama drive me crazy
Crazy that your baby riding 'round in a Maybach
Telling no to you, baby, I'll never say that
Take you to the corner where I used to get paid at
My heart got torn, you the one can replace that
Day you were born, I wish that I could go replay that
She gon' tell me she love me, no, I ain't gotta ask you
Even though I'm on the road, I'm coming back to you
Thought the key to my heart was that flag that's blue
Keep it G from the start, you a bag on boo
When I walk inside the door, she gon' know it's me
I'ma tell her 'bout the days they ain't notice me
I can feel you and you know I'm your Jodeci
You got your name from overseas
We don't do plain jane, get her new VV's
Let her watch Dora on a big TV
By the way I growed up, she ain't gotta see
In the shower with your mama, girl, that's privacy
She like the way my car crank up, vroom, ride
Innocent princess in my eyes
Brand new Rolex when you turn five
You don't need no man, I'm by your side

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl
You the only one know how I feel
Run it up just to buy the whole world
I don't care if it cost a hundred mil'
Want you to know you the only one
Made me change the way that I live
As a child, promise you gon' have fun
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

You know I'ma dedicate my life to you, baby girl
You know it's just me, you, and these two double cups
Listen up
It's a true story, baby girl

Bigger, swear I can't wait 'til she bigger
Every time she quiet, daddy's girl getting paper
Pop sticking all these blues, you can call it father figures
I'ma do whatever just to make you smile
Search for you, walk a thousand miles
Won't catch no tear coming down my eyes
Girl, you my gift, my winning prize
And I'ma safe to say that it ain't safe to ride
I have to speak the truth before I tell a lie
They ever fuck with you, I swear they gonna die
I'll do a hundred life just to feed my child
Over-dedicated, I'm infatuated
Do anything to see my girl situated
I'm sorry I got in this situation
I'ma blame it on the lean and the liquor, baby

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl
You the only one know how I feel
Run it up just to buy the whole world
I don't care if it cost a hundred mil'
Want you to know you the only one
Made me change the way that I live
As a child, promise you gon' have fun
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

She like the way my car crank up, vroom, ride
I dedicate my life to you, girl
