Intro]
Alot of fathers just you know up and leve there kids when
there babies man and alot of mothers say hes a deadbeat or
he was never a father to you maybe thats true one thing i know
is there is never an excuse to run away from family
when there in need...(echoes)

[Verse 1]
Alright listen see when i was just a baby my dad didnt want nothing to
do with me never changed one diaper just wasted his money on fake
jewelery didnt want me until i was fourteen fifteen skipped sixteen
now im seventeen and brought back into the house with the only lady that
was ever really there for me my momma i love you mom as much
as you piss me off no one will ever steal the love that i have for you no
matter how poor we are i could never love anyone more than family and
thats the truth hey mom remember your ex the one ho used to beat
me you and my brother until i finally stood up and released my anger
when i just use to bottle it up deep inside me well the top popped off
some shits about to jump off forget this song see im pissed now go ahead
hit them again see if i dont knock your ass out ill hit you so hard ill
knock your lights out then pull my gun out pistol whip you until your
entire brain falls out man i may flow like a butterfly but i sting like a
pissed off bee what can i say this is the real Lil Shade whos been locked
up bottled up deep inside me so follow me listen memorize and
sing it with me

[Chorus]
My momma was always there for me i just wanted my dad to see
how it could really be but he left me alone you see
my dad was never there for me will somebody tell me please
why did he leave his family (I SAID)
My momma was always there for me i just wanted my dad to see
how it could really be but he left me alone you see
my dad was never there for me will somebody tell me please
why did he leave his family

[Verse 2]
So you see personally i dont know why my father left me one thought
maybe he really did care only his pockets were empty on second thought
maybe it was too much responsibility maybe he didnt want nothing to
do with me maybe even hated me it probably was he though i wouldnt
remember him or anything but what i do remember is my mom suffering
watching listening and sometimes even joining in with her crying because
she didnt have any money to make me happy and provide the things she
wanted for me but most importantly she didnt need the money or the
things i needed to make me happy we could have been living in a
cardboard box on the corner of seventeenth street as long as i was with
her i could have always been happy because it was just us nobody else
i had all of your love i wanted to keep you all to myself and see where it
got us a nice little place in the subarbs a fourteen year old little brother
that looks up to me i got a precious two year old little sister in my life
shes a princess her name is haley just remember haley your brother
loves you baby were family now listen closely as i break it down and
proceed to let all you people know who i really am on the inside of this
washed up white trash lonely body so lets all sing

[Chorus]
My momma was always there for me i just wanted my dad to see
how it could really be but he left me alone you see
my dad was never there for me will somebody tell me please
why did he leave his family (I SAID)
My momma was always there for me i just wanted my dad to see
