Fatherless Child

CHORUS
Indygo Shai: When you're a fatherless child
Sometimes its hard to smile
When you're a fatherless child

Will Smith: you know Uncle Phil? I'm a get through college with him, I'm a get a great job without him, I'm a marry me a beautiful honey and I'm a have me a whole bunch of kids, ima be a better father than he ever was and I sure as hell don't need him for that because ain't a damn thing he can ever teach me about how to love my kids!

Black Mozart:
Future down the drain cuz he from the gutter/
His Mama was he father and is mother/
She's functional on drugs but the kids suffer/
The man of the house was his older brother/
He just had a baby he didn't wear a rubber/
His 12 year old sister already a lover/
Her pedophile uncle used to touch her/
Some nights he would come slide under her covers/
She was scared n she didn't wanna argue wit em/
Because she didn't want no problems wit em
So Now because of that she talks to all the niggas/
It just depends on who called her quicker/
She's just looking for a father figure/
She didn't plan on getting syphillis/
Old enough to drink now but she's still a kid/
Father line blank on her birth certificate/

Will Smith: he wasn't there to teach me how to shoot my first basket but I learned didn't I? And I got pretty damn good didn't i?
Uncle Phil: yea you did
Will Smith: I got through my first date without him right? I learned how to drive, I learned how to shave, I learned how to fight without him, I had 14 great birthdays without him and he never even sent me a damn a card, DAMN HIM! I didn't need him then and I don't need him now

Black Mozart:
The son was a king but didn't know how to hold the throne/
Cuz his Papa was a rolling stone/
Hard to be a man wit no one to show em/
OGs picked up the pieces of a broken home/
So son ran the streets n learned to hold his own/
He'd X men out when he hold the chrome/
Quit his pizza job to make some Provolone/
He made GREATER cheese when he sold a zone/
He made all his sales off his mobile phone/
Always roaming (Roman) but never go to Rome/
He lived in the streets like a mobile home/
His dog wasn't eating so he'd throw a bone/
Like Macaulay Culkin he gave HOMIE LONES/
Hes on his way to be his dads celly/
Kites asking son why don't u mail me?
To the son, dads pronounced deadbeat/

Indygo Shai: sometimes it's hard to smile
When you're a fatherless
She's just a fatherless
He's just a fatherless
I'm just a fatherless child
Sometimes its hard to smile
When you're a fatherless child
Sometimes its hard to smile
When you're a fatherless child

He gettin stacks now his pockets gettin fat now/
Slowly he can feel that monkey on his back now/
A couple of his boys went n got clapped down/
He can hear the beeps of the wire taps now/
A target on his back now
He dodging pat downs
He needs advice with no one to ask now/
Pops walking that yard tryna he max out/
To think he could've been a king like sac town/
Death row thinks they should kill (shaquille) so he backed down/
Homies lost and jealous still in a SHACK now/
Look the DNA all starting to match now/
His right hand man starting to crack now/
So he becomes a witness to get some slack now/
Man he (Manny) falling boxed in like pacquaio/
All because he had no dad round/
Hes in the same cell block as his dad now/

Cam'ron: I ain't snitching on nobody from Harlem man. I'll give you a couple cats down in DC doing their thing out of town doing they thing but um. I ain't snitching on nobody from Harlem cuz when I come home I'm still be the king

Indygo Shai: Sometimes it's so hard to smile
When you're a fatherless child
