Lyrics Boss Man - Haystak

Very few thoughts'll bring a tear to my eye
But the thoughta dyin' without tellin' my baby good-bye
Explainin' why Daddy had to go
Believin' that's the only way she'd ever really know
I wish I could stay with you
See you graduate school
Grow old and gray wit' you
See your babies and their babies too
Baby, you the only proof I ever existed
And there was nothin' more addictive
Than your hugs and your kisses
You know how much I'm gonna miss this
I wish this bliss could be endless
But that's just senseless
It seems as though this is the business
Daddy was a leader and people followed
I stay so caught up in the game, I seldom see tomorrow
A desperado who changed diapers and warmed bottles
Perhaps I could have been a more positive role model
But DooWop, I'll always love you
Don't let nobody tell you
Your pops wasn't no good dude
Naw Boo

If the sun comes up, and I'm not home,
Be strong
There's a life inside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that there daddy was a good man,
A good man

I don't know where your head was when you just said us
Then you took my baby home to your mama's house
Can't even cry no more, accept the fact it's over now
All I can do, is thank God you a good mama
Apologize cause I put you through so much drama
But I already give you half my doh
You should have to write half my flows
And do half my shows
I keep the lights on
I bring the bacon home
Count the contractions, cut the cord
Bring the baby home
Three and a half karats
And if you accept my proposal
I'll be that person you been searchin'
And the whole pursuit is over
I gotta show outta town
Get my doh outta pounds
Rock my baby, til she fall asleep
Take her, and lay her down
Tell her mama, I'm goin'
And go and sing songs
The sun come up and I'm not home, somethin musta went wrong,
So be strong

If the sun comes up, and I'm not home,
Be strong
There's a life inside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that there daddy was a good man,
A good man

This is for the good men, that went to die in Iraq
My drug lord veterans, that died over crack
Convenience store clerks,
That get killed for nothin' more than
The measley contents of a register drawer
I work to feed my seed
Protect my offspring
I stand here between nothin' and everything
On the verge of failure and success
But I have done you an injustice
If I don't do my best
Daddies don't get to rest
Daddies just gotta work
If my back begins to ache, I guess it's just gonna have to hurt
Cause daddies gonna make it through the work day
Just so I can be a hero on your birthday
I believe the worst days almost over
In case I never told you baby, you my little solider
Damn, girl, so cute, so strong, so smart, so free, so hard headed
Yo lil ass is just like me
Uhn

If the sun comes up, and I'm not home,
Be strong
There's a life inside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that there daddy was a good man,
A good man

If the sun comes up, and I'm not home,
Be strong
There's a life inside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that there daddy was a good man,
A good man

If the sun comes up, and I'm not home,
Be strong
There's a life inside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that there daddy was a good man,
A good man
