Lyrics

This is not to complain, everything's all great

Wonder if what I am and what I portray correlates

Issues in my life I gotta sort straight

Mama, I hope you don't take this shit the wrong way

See, I ain't come clean with a lot of things

We've always got along and I know that you're wondering

What I'm on about and why I'd put it in a song

But there's a lot of things single mothers doing wrong

And I think we need to talk about it

My dad failed to be the man you needed

But I know you really feel lost without him

Or at least it looks like it

I really miss the happy times, wish we could go back

But I don't know if you would like it

I know that dad was too safe and he never changed

You wished that he'd become more at a lesser age

Instead he was just a teacher and he was cool with that

But love matters the most so how would you react

If he said he was sorry and forgiveness is a gift

And all of a sudden your ex husband became rich

And he paid more attention to his beautiful kids

And asked you to marry him again?

Would it be bliss, mama?

This is not to complain, everything's all great

I wonder if what I am and what I portray correlates

Issues in my life I gotta sort straight

Dad, I hope you don't take this shit the wrong way

But you could've done better for your family

If you had stepped out of your comfort zone

Into a gallery of opportunities that were waiting for you

All you had to do was wake up and move

I mean you laced me with tools to take over the world

And I wish you could have done the same

This song is not about blame, that is not the aim

Just a couple of things that got me worried

And please don't get me wrong, this is not about money

And I know, I don't know what it takes to raise kids

With a woman that loves you but always says you ain't shit

In front of your kids, I mean you're supposed to be Superman

I still say there ain't no **** that is cooler than my dad

Wish I could boomerang all the weed indulging

But now he got a new wife and I feel lost without him

Man, we used to be a team, we were inseparable

I just hope this whole thing is repairable, I miss you, dad

It's probably the realest song that I ever wrote

It's probably the one on the album that they'll never quote

I've been thinking a lot lately, things I never post

I've been drinking a lot lately, but at least I never smoke

Seems like they love the ones where I'm superhuman

I know you look at me for answers but I'm also clueless

I'm also clueless when it comes to things that really matter

Excuse my current behavior but I'm really fed up

I'm just tryna say I'm human too

And all the things that I'm doing are things that you could do

Instead y'all spend your time judging the next man

I hate y'all **** as much as I hate the tax man

I hate fame, would it be worth it if I did it for wealth?

I know I'm not always right but I'm always myself

And if I change I'll have no one to blame

If anything, the hate should validate that I'm great, refiloe
