Текст песни FATHER FIGURE (feat. Xenos the Stranger) - Ellis Williams

Look

Imma tell you a story about E (storytime)
Little afro-cuban boy with dreams
Growing up without a father wondering if he (uh huh)
Will ever be the kind of man he see on TV (pay attention)
Y'all know how that song goes
Parents ain't together and everybody knows
A growing adolescent with a ton of resentment
Looking for a father figure who will take the investment (uh)
A young man passing through a cold world
Tryna figure out how he can talk to pretty girls
Raised by a single mom who doesn't have a clue
What to do who will guide her son through high school
Tell me do you know what it's like to be alone (na)
Even rejected by your very own (na)
Little nappy-headed boy tryna do right
He could use a father figure help him through the fight (come on)

We all looking for a father figure (whoa)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (losing time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah (whoa)
Instead I'm building up a hall of fame career
We all looking for a father figure (we all looking for a father figure)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (we losing time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah (uh huh)
Instead I'm building up a hall of fame career (yeah)

I am the one that completes me
The universe is mine
I got fire but God got the wrath and through him I'm gone rise
I stand tall without you
Looking down from above your presence wasn't enough,
A gift from the Lord to make a nigga tough
Never needed you to learn about love
Look at me now I'm full of the fire
The passion in my heart
Hold the key
To the greatness within me
Two damn decades and a nigga still chillin'

We all looking for a father figure (we all looking for a father figure)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (we losing time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah (uh)
Instead I'm building up a hall of fame career
We all looking for a father figure (looking)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (wasting my time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah (whoa whoa)
Instead I'm building up a hall of fame career (uh)

Hey
You got it kid (hey)
Pick up your head you know you got it kid (pick up your head)
Don't you ever even attempt to think it's time to quit (na na na)
Causing quitting yourself be ya own detriment so
Go get your bag and be a testament (uh)
Go get your bag and be a testament
If you ever find yourself feeling worthless (uh huh)
Just remember that God gave you a purpose (lets go)
To the father figures who stepped up, thank you
(We all looking for a father figure)
You saw potential in us that we could never see (father figure)
Now it's time for us to be great
I'm building up a hall of fame career (come on)

We all looking for a father figure (whoa)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (losing time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah (whoa)
Instead I'm building up a hall of fame career
We all looking for a father figure (we all looking)
Losing time waiting for useless niggas (we losing time)
Thought I'd be hopeless with no focus yeah yeah
