The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Yeah, Its all good, I'm doing better without you (nooo)

Anyway, But its funny, we look just alike (just like you)

Verse 1:

Everyday that i look in the mirror

A reflection of someone I don't remember

But I heard that he was something special

To someone that I hold so dear to me (momma)

(She said he was a singer) Oh he could sing yeeaah

But he used it to abuse a lot of women

Now your seed was a he and that seed is now me

And I love my son (forever) and my son loves me (me)

And I know that its painful but I wish you could see

Chorus:

That a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Cause a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Bridge:

Was never there for me (no no)

How could you betray me

Broke up the family tree

What about me

What about me

Verse 2:

Now I hear that you wanna see me

But I can't let it go not that easy

See a man only knows what he feels

And I feel that I can't trust you

Keep it real, I don't need you

And I can't think that you would think I would ever be like you

Cause its sad that you're my dad

And I don't know you

Even when I see you

And to my son, I could never leave you

Chorus:

That a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Cause a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Breakdown:

You was never there

Probably didn't care

That you had a son

While you on the run

Never thought that twice of being in my life

Cause you broke a happy home

Why you leaving us aloneneva

Never gave a damn to find out who I am

Its to late for you to communicate

You was never there

Probably didn't care

That you had a son

While you on the run

Chorus:

That a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me on her all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Cause a man is what I am, Tho you didn't give a damn

When you left her on her own to raise me on her all alone

Its hard for me to hate ya when she says that I'm just like ya

So I'm praying everyday that God will change my ways

Don't make me, don't make me, don't make me

Turn out like him

Ohhhhh, never gonna be like you

Never gonna walk, talk like you noo

(And to all my sisters, I love ya'll!)
