歌词
[Verse 1]
Daddy been cleanin' windows, daddy been shinin' shoes
Daddy's a taxi driver
Drivin' all night survivin' on a couple hours, sleep in the afternoon
Daddy's home sick
Twenty years past, daddy's job and still no promotion
[Verse 2]
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
[Verse 3]
Mommy been lighting candles, mommy been saying prayers
Mommy don't think she can handle
No more thugs or thieves, or dogs, or sharks, or grizzly bears
Mommy's so fed up
Four nightshifts in a row, but that won't add up
[Verse 4]
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
[Verse 5]
And I know she love to travel
Take a picture in the album
But that's something come and gone
And the kids need uniforms
And I know he loved to hold her
I mean, really get to know her
But there's something that's come and gone
And the kids need uniforms
[Verse 6]
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
[Verse 7]
I pray you get home safe
I pray for your date of birth to combat to them cold gates
I pray you don't lose faith, pray you don't lose faith
Life begins at forty, momma, I pray you see old age
I've seen you go to work and come home, and go to work
And not moan about your work because there's nothing in your purse
But that money don't define you, plus you hate being lied to
That's probably why there's no fella beside you
But besides that, I'm beside you
Hospital bedside, thinkin' how the fuck can I retire?
There's no quittin', there's no quittin'
What good's five in the booth if I could burn with those lyrics?
Clock's tickin' and it's gettin' hard for me
They just said my mother's got heart disease
Man, I swear I felt that in my artery
If we could swap, I'd give you every part of me
Every lesson that you taught me was priceless
I mean, it's funny how you add value when you're a minus
Corned beef sandwich for dinner when we were rice-less
Have that shit time after time, I guess it's timeless
The candles stayed lit when the electric gave in
I kept our fire burnin', mom, we never gave in
And if the kingdom's comin', man, it's best be waitin'
'Cause I ain't leavin' your side, it's gonna be a long night
[Verse 8]
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
Fuck that, daddy
You're a king and the kingdom's coming, no more runnin'
Fuck that, mommy
You're an angel and this ain't no place for an angel
[Verse 9]
(Kingdom comin')
Don't you lose your head right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you give in right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you lose your head right now 'cause kingdom coming
I know you give in sometimes, but kingdom's coming
Don't you give in right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you give up right now 'cause kingdom coming
I can see the light right now, the kingdom coming
Kingdom's coming, kingdom's coming
Don't you give in right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you lose your head right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you give in right now 'cause kingdom coming
Don't you lose your head right now 'cause kingdom coming
I know you give in sometimes, but kingdom's coming
Don't you give up right now 'cause kingdom coming
I can see the light right now, the kingdom coming
Don't you give in right now 'cause kingdom coming
