(feat. marsha ambrosius)
[chorus:]
I've got some things to say, oh
Please dont go
So dont you turn away, oh
Please dont go
I need you here to stay, i
Miss you so
[verse 1:]
My daddy left me, and he aint even die
So when he did go, i aint even cry
I had reason, but that aint even why
How could he have failed if he aint even try
I ask no questions, i aint even pry
Truthfully i wanted to i cant even lye
Like a canceled flight, that aint even fly
To just walk away, like you aint even my
Like, like, like i aint even your
I cant even say it, i aint even sure
He shouda gave me everything and left me even more
But he left me without saying what he was leavin for
And thats when i became a man
And thats the day he stopped bein one
This year i became a father
And imma die bein one, wassup son
[chorus:]
I've got some things to say, oh
Please dont go
So dont you turn away, oh
Please dont go
I need you here to stay, i
Miss you so
[verse 2:]
I have nightmares of me not bein round
He took his first steps and daddy couldnt be in town
Daddy's entertaining everybody
But missed out when it came to trainin for the potty
I give a fuck about hip-hops new beef
I was more excited when my son grew teeth
So i same the problem
Of the famous stardom
Just like em and haily
Just like game and harlem
Weezy's at the awards with miss. carter
Nah not his date, i'm talkin bout his daughter
Now thats stuntin like your daddy
Cuz its crazy when you wanna be nuthin like your daddy
And if you never been a man
That's the day you start bein one
This year i became a father
And imma die bein one, wussup son
[chorus:]
I've got some things to say, oh
Please dont go
So dont you turn away, oh
Please dont go
I need you here to stay, i
Miss you so
[marsha ambrosius:]
So hear the truth remain to let me go
I wont hold that against you, i moved on
Just look what i become since you been gone
Now dont you turn away, oh, please dont go
Here's what i got to say, oh
Please dont go
Oh why'd you go away, oh
Please dont go
I needed you here to stay, oh
Please dont go
I cant believe this day, oh
Please dont go
[chorus:]
I've got some things to say, oh
Please dont go
So dont you turn away, oh
Please dont go
I need you here to stay, i
Miss you so
[outro:]
Why did you leave me
Tell me why you dont care
Daddy tell me why did you leave me
Why you dont care
Tell me why did you leave me
Daddy tell me why you weren't there
Why did you leave me
