Off Da Books Mixtape

0

[Intro: kid & ProVerb]
Papa
That's my lil girl, yo!
Yoooo!

[Verse 1: ProVerb]
See, I’m a dad now, that means the hustle has changed
It ain’t just rap now, I got to use the muscle and brain
See I’m a man now, that means I mustn’t complain
But I’d be dammed if I see my fam struggle in vain
I’m like Jabba, the way I’ve doubled the H
The hustle that is, and I’m faster coming of age
I’m still a rapper, in it for the love of the game
But right after, when I’m finished I gotta get paid
My beautiful wife and daughter
I just took out life insurance
So God forbid if I die they sorted
You see quality of their life is important
And if I’m gonna give you the world, first I got to try and afford it
My little girl can walk now
Soon she’ll be starting to talk now
Everything else her pops will sort out
My wife is the queen and she holds the fort down
And I'ma fulfil all the dreams she talked about

[Chorus]
A lil' something for the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
To bring something to the fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners

Yeah, you the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
To bring something to the fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners

[Verse 2: HHP]
We representing for bo-daai man
Hustling mad doe ka di cypher
Jabba-Man, Pro ba matimer
It’s kinda mad though, raising up a family could make you wiser
But any funny move could make you baiza
Recognize the man, Mr Bread-winner with a plan
Ke leano, making the sword sicker than the pen
Rele thlano we doing all good, living ka kwano
Kill any man who takes food from Pano’s legano
I got di-policy, hoping I could pay for college
I would do anything so ngwanake a thole knowledge
It’s elementary, that’s what takes up all my energy
That’s why I take it personal when people try to damage me
But, I guess it’s part of being a timer in this industry
Whole lot of dilo tse negative will bring you misery
That’s why me Verb and the rest have made a pact
Gotta leave heard ke kwale a verse and make a track

[Chorus]
For the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
Always getting something to the fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners

Yes, you the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
To bring something to the fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners
Yes, you...

[Bridge: ProVerb & HHP]
We just took that opportunity to big up the good dads
'Cause I’m tired of dead-beats making us look bad
See right now, I’m glad, we turning fathers into heroes
And ke kgale re beta turning the man into a zero and now
We know, that most of our mothers have it the hardest
Playing both the lead roles of the mother and father
Don’t disregard us, we got the God pleading for us
I’m playing that card making the heart crazy for us
For the, for the, for the, for the, for the, for the…

[Chorus]
A lil' something for the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
To give something to the Fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners
Yeah you..

A lil' something for the fathers
That know how to be a man and work harder
To give something to the Fam
You would rather make sure the kids are fed dinner
I’m talking to the real breadwinners
