Lyrics

Shewmac
Dad, the best friend I never had
Taught me how to be a man
How to provide for my fam
How to live god's plan
Carried me on his shoulders
Picked me up when I fell
Pushed me like a soldier.
Taught me how to spell
Showed a tender love
Taught me how to treat a woman
The knowledge when she left
That's what kept me going....
Taught me how to drive,
How to be strong
How to survive
To know right from wrong
No camping, hiking, or fishing trips.
Not one ball game,
Not even one cooking tip.
No weapons knowledge
I never went to collage
No father figure in sight
So, there were limited options.
Dad, gave me the courage to face the world
Defend what's yours
And to fear no man
Fight for whatchu believe in
Tucked me in, in the evening
These are the bedtime stories
That I don't remember hearing.
These are the things a father shows his son
I had to teach myself. I never had one
What's a man that doesn't raise his sons?
What's a child if they're not your number one's?
These are the things a father teaches his daughter
I do what I can as a man, not a mother.
Learned as a big brother
We teach one another
Without a dad
I became the son of another
I don't call anymore or even say hi
Because I know it's just a waste of time
Thanks to your wife
I missed the family reunion
I had no invite
So, a kept it moving
That's an evil woman
I'm the Gignac y'all been missing
The first born in the distance
I still want to visit
So, you can meet my children
I won't ask you for shit
Betchu won't admit it
When I didn't have shiznit
You liked to rub it in like Smiffin griffins
How you had a house, cars and everything within it.
I was homeless and heartbroken
Soul searching for friendship
Looking for family
Or anyone who would listen
With no relationship
And nothing to build on
That's the point she made
Now that thrills gone
Stock my social media
Call yourself a success
I pretend to be alright
But I'm really a mess
These are the things a father shows his son
I had to teach myself. I never had one
What's a man that doesn't raise his sons?
What's a child if they're not your number one's?
These are the things a father teaches his daughter
I do what I can as a man, not a mother.
Learned as a big brother
We teach one another
Without a dad
I became the son of another
I love you sons
More than life itself
You're my number ones
Loyalty over wealth
Be the dad I never had
Provide for the fam
Keep you in good health
Teach you to understand.
With food in your belly
And clothes on your back,
You'll feel the comfort.
With mom and dads on your ass
I pray for your success
Live a life full of substance
Join the discussion
You'll learn in abundance
