2 Pac - Papa'z Song Lyrics
Daddys home...[tupac speaking]So...you say that like it means somethin to meYouve been gone a mighty long mutha*****in timeFor you to be comin home talkin that daddys home shitWe been getting along fine just without youMe, my brother, and my motherSo if you dont mind, you can step the ***** off, pops***** you!(tupac)Had to play catch by myselfWhat a sorry sightA pitiful plightSo I pray for a starry nightPlease send me a pops before pubertyThe things I would do to see a piece of family unityMoms always work, I barely see herIm startin to get worried without a pops Ill grow to beat herIts a wonder they dont understand kids todaySo when I pray, I pray Ill never grow to be that wayAnd I hope that he answers meI heard, God dont like uglyTake a look at my familyA different father every weekendBefore we get to meet him they breakup before the week endsIm gettin sick of all the friendshipsAs soon as we kick it, he done splitAnd then the whole trip ends quickHow can I be a man if theres no role modelIm strivin to save my soul I stay cold drinkin a forty bottleIm so sorry...(chorus)Im so sorryFor all this timeFor all this timeFor all this time(wycked)Moms had to entertain many menDidnt wanna do it but its time to pay the rent againIm gettin a bit older and Im startin to be a botherMoms cant stand me cause Im lookin like my fatherShall I stay or run awayTell me tha answerMoms ignores me and avoids me like cancerGrow up rough and its hard to understand stuffMoms was tough cause its poppa wasnt man enoughCouldnt stand up to his own responsibilitiesInstead of takin care of meHed rather live lavishlyThats why Ill never be a fatherUnless you got the timeIts a crimeDont even botherThats when I started hatin the phony smilesSaid I was an only child[look at mamas lonely smile]Its hard for a son to see his mother cryShe only loves you, but has to ***** with these other guys(chorus x2)Im so sorryFor all this timeFor all this timeFor all this time(tupac)Man child in the promised landCouldnt form many heroesMoms was there only when pops was a no-showAnd ohI guess ya didnt know that I would grow to be so strongLookin kinda pale was it the ale that pops was wrongWhere was the money that you sent you would send meTalked on the phone and ya sounded so friendlyAsk about school and my welfareBut its clear, you aint sincereHey, who the hell caresYou think Im blind but this time I see ya comin, jackYou left up broke, grabbed your coatNow aint no runnin backAsk about my moms like you loved her from the startLeft her in the dark, she fell apart from a broken heartSo dont even start with that wanna be your father shitDont even bother with your dollars I dont need itIll bury moms like you left me all alone gNow that that I finally found you,Stay the ***** away from meIm so sorry...(chorus x2)Im so sorryFor all this timeFor all this timeFor all this time(tupac voiceover)I never meant to leave but I was wantedCrossed too many people every house ran to was hauntedHad to watch for strangersEvery brother was in dangerIf I wanted keep you breathinHad to be out of range, thenHad to move one, lost my name and picked a numberBaby watch my back I had no happy home to run taMaybe its my fault for being a father living fastBut livin slow, wed have no dough, low to kissing assIn hiensight showed me it was wrong all alongI wanted to make some dough so you could grow to be so strongIt took a little longer than I thoughtI slipped, got caught, and sent to jail by the courtsNow Im doin time and I wish youd understandAll I ever wanted was for you to be a manAnd grow to be the type you was meant to beKeep the war fightin by the writings that you sent to meIm so sorry...(chorus repeated till end)Im so sorryFor all this timeFor all this timeFor all this time
