Dad (feat. Brownman Ali)

If I were you I’d

Hold my daughter so tight and

Thank the blue skies

For this child in my life

But that’s not you

If I were you I’d

I’d never let her go

Make sure she knows

That her dad loves her so

But that's not you

Cause now that I have grown

I get that it’s not me

Some fathers ain’t supposed to be parents you see

And after doing all this work I've done in therapy

I’ve learned I don’t wanna be

You

I don’t wanna be

You

If I were you I’d

Take the time to apologize

And try to mend up something that you bent

But I know

That that’s something that you’d never do

Now that I’m older And I’m not a little girl anymore

I’m big enough to know that little girl deserved a whole lot more

To dance on her fathers feet

Instead of wondering “where’s my daddy?”

“Does he love me?”

Cause now that I have grown

I get that it’s not me

Some fathers ain’t supposed to be parents you see

And after doing all this work I've done in therapy

I’ve learned I don’t wanna be

You

I don’t wanna be

You

Be you

Be you

Be you

Ohhhh

Cause now that I have grown

I get that it’s not me

Some fathers ain’t supposed to be parents you see

And after doing all this work Ive done Therapy

I’ve learnt that you just we’re ready
