Just The Two Of Us歌词

(Now dad this is a very sensitive subject) <
From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms<
I knew I'd meet death before I'd let you meet harm <
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough?<
Against wrong, choose right and be standin up <
From the hospital that first night <
Took a hour just to get the carseat in right <
People drivin all fast, got me kinda upset <
Got you home safe, placed you in your basonette<
That night I don't think one wink I slept <
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept<
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt <
Cause I know I loved you more than life itself <
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord please <
Let me be a good daddy, all he needs <
Love, knowledge, discipline too <
I pledge my life to you <
Chorus:
Just the two of us, we can make it if we try <
Just the two of us, (Just the two of us) <
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky <
Just the two of us, you and I <
Five years old, bringin comedy <
Everytime I look at you I think man, a little me <
Just like me <
Wait an see gonna be tall <
Makes me laugh cause you got your dads ears an all <
Sometimes I wonder, what you gonna be <
A General, a Doctor, maybe a MC
Haha, I wanna kiss you all the time <
But I will test that butt when you cut out a line, too bad<
Uh-uh-uh why you do that? <
I try to be a tough dad, but you be makin me laugh <
Crazy joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy <
I pledge to you, I will always do <
Everything I can <
Show you how to be a man <
Dignity, integrity, honor an <
An I don't mind if you lose, long as you came with it <
An you can cry, ain't no shame it it <
It didn't work out with me and your mom <
But yo, push come to shove <
You was conceived in love <
So if the world attacks, and you slide off track <
Remember one fact, I got your back <
Chorus
It's a full-time job to be a good dad <
You got so much more stuff than I had <
I gotta study just to keep with the changin times <
See me-I'm <
Tryin to pretend I know<
On my PC where that CD go<
But yo, ain't nothing promised, one day I'll be gone <
Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong <
But just in case <
It's my place <
To impart <
One day some girl's gonna break your heart <
And ooh ain't no pain like from the opposite *** <
Gonna hurt bad, but don't take it out on the next, son<
Throughout life people will make you mad <
Disrespect you and treat you bad <
Let God deal with the things they do <
Cause hate in your heart will consume you too <
Always tell the truth, say your prayers <
Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears <
You're living proof that dreams do come true <
I love you and I'm here for you <
Chorus to fade<
