When I'm a Dad - Eligh

I could try to say that I was never one to run
But I was never one to stay
My daddy never taught me how to knock a motha fucka out
I lay in bed and dread the day ahead
A scrawny kind of kid talking on his back
I never told my friends that I was tortured by the fact
I was in the minority, cause where my school was at
South Central Los Angeles wouldn’t trade it for the world
Adams and 32nd, _ to this man you mention
And a sense to follow music so how could I forget that
In the first grade I
Met that fell in love and made that mine
I never regret that when I think about the times
When fat boys wanted to kick my ass for nothing and my mind
Was stressed daily now it’s funny, but then I learned to pray to god
Because I couldn’t tell my friends that I was bullied on the block
Psychologically getting punked
I never really got punched or jacked for my lunch money

But on the yard like a jailer kept my eyes peeled
5th grade on the
Battlefield man that shit was real
(X2)

I will never run again and when I am a dad
Put my kids on everything that I could never grab
Teach em how to fight because the world is going mad
Teach em how to love because that’s all we really have
Love is number one to give my kids when I’m a dad
Music number two because that’s what I’m all about
I kiss them on the forehead when they sit there looking sad
Shout out loud I will be there on the bow
(X2)

The children are the future always have and always will be
Mine will be protected til' the end and if it kills me
They will know that daddy loved them with a passion
And put nothing above them even when the world was crashin'
Around us in the end and some would say that’s coming closer
I put my daughter on my shoulders love her til it’s over
A change in consciousness could be the end of what we know now
Not earthquakes tidal waves and nuclear meltdowns
Try to be positive in the way I live to generate light
So if I bring that life into this world to witness daylight
The love will carry over from killing off all my selfish acts
Help one other human being a day to get my past out of hell
Well runs dry daily gotta reimburse good deeds come first
I’m crazy in love with my unborn child
Teach them to care then let them run wild
