She exposed my daughter to violence And you expect me to sit here and remain silent? I got some choice words for that. But I’d rather kill you with kindness You wonder why people hate the system… Think about it… The same one being punished is the same one that's victim Do the math, the system is broken Closed case, but I cracked it wide open “He only hit me 3 times” is the way that she pleaded But what will you do when my daughter’s the one bleeding? Knowing that you turned a blind eye This ain’t a matter of “wrong place wrong time” It’s just a slow system like America Online 10 years behind Good news is that it’s only a matter of time Bad news is that it didn't matter the crime You already made up your mind We all deserve equality and you playing with mine Giving pity to a mother in poverty Instead of a dad who owns his home and his property 3 females in 1 bedroom. Not one of em got legroom I got too much space, can't keep up with the place And no big deal if her dad gets up in my face? It ain’t black vs white, mom vs dad... The system’s the one destroying this race I really had hopes that we could see justice prevail But how could that be when they adjusting the scale (HOOK) Rather see me as a bad man than a good father...father All I wanna do, be around for my daughter...daughter Rather see me as a bad man than a good father...father All I wanna do, be around for my daughter...daughter Rather see me as a bad man than a good father...father All I wanna do, be around for my daughter...daughter (Verse 2) Ironic isn't it? Child support withholding She gets the money for a child that she's withholding You watch this life of yours unfolding She loving life and you going thru hell Things could be better... If only.......time could tell You sit and wait looking dopey Hoping things will look up, but they won't be This a 20 to life sentence I say that casually, just joking But who's the joke on? Government slinging things for you to choke on Three branches of the justice system And ain't no justice in em When it don’t work out...? They say "it's just the system" Deal the cards that you're faced with! But how you expect me to be okay with being complacent? Knowing that money couldn't buy the dreams that I'm chasin This is bigger than me It's bad meets evil...freddy verse jason Is this reality or am I stuck in the matrix? Life is love coupled with hatred Harsh thoughts from a father who made it Living a life most envy Bought a house, 2 cars, the story's never ending I live nice, but I'm not friendly Like I said, the system is broken It’s biased in nature They act like all we know is violence and hatred (HOOK) (Verse 3) How would you feel when you're treated like a leper One of two parents but feeling like the lesser Doing all we can but we struggle with the pressure Of time limited Meanwhile our child oblivious Childbirth is hard But it pales in comparison They call us part time fathers I'm tired of the arrogance Broken system, the mother is favored She suffered in labor So our rights have been waivered Society is prejudice 2 bathrooms and 1 changing station Don't believe it go look at the evidence Biased is prevalent So pen met paper and their paths collided All of a sudden a spark ignited I took a hashtag and made it a mission To live life without our children missing Took life’s scraps and made the best of it And now I know what the message is Life ain't always sunshine and rainbows It's fun times and painful But hey...I'm still grateful For the time we have Knowing that this bond will last Who knows...maybe one day we’ll look back and laugh (HOOK) Rather see us as bad men then good fathers...fathers All we wanna do, be around for our children...children Rather see us as bad men then good fathers...fathers All we wanna do, be around for our children...children Rather see us as bad men then good fathers...fathers All we wanna do, be around for our children...children
