Papa Song Lyrics by Riky Rick

Family Values

2015

[Intro]
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
(Oh!)
[Refrain]
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
(Damn I miss my nigga, man, oh)
[Verse 1]
Homie I know just what it feels like
When you're feeling all alone
And your mommy is your daddy 'ause your daddy never home
And you're looking at the phone, never rings, never ever
And it's your birthday and you're just hoping he remembered
It's your birthday and you ain't seen him since December
Momma told me he the reason why I had a temper
Momma told me he the reason why I never loved
But shit, I ain't trippin, I'm just part of the club
I know a million kids like me (Like me)
I ain't trippin, one person never liked me
High school I used to ball, Michael Jordan yeah
When I looked into the stands daddy wasn't there
Everytime I come home, I keep my head down
I missed my whole childhood and daddy's dead now
So from this point you probably gotta hold your own
Momma told me when you're down you gotta soldier on
You gotta soldier on
[Chorus]
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
(Yeah, they say you gotta do what you can)
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
(Yeah, they say you gotta do what you can)
Damn I miss my nigga, man, oh
[Refrain]
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
Damn I miss my nigga, man (Damn I miss my nigga, man)
Oh-oh-oh (Oh)
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Oh I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
[Verse 2]
I miss you pops, we miss you pops
To tell the truth nobody cared if you were rich or not
All I wanted was daddy to hold me down, ao ask me questions They're saying my daddy never around
When you got sick, I think I got the feeling you'd die
But I never had the courage to cry
So now I'm at the bar, I'm thinking my life's done
'Cause everything you know you meant to teach it to your son
And everything you know you meant to learn it from your daddy
Now I'm a drug addict, I'm wishing you never had me, eish!
I'm gettin' high so I ain't gotta feel down
It was just a game before but shit is real now
My girl left me, she said that I was too crazy
I fucked up, couldn't sober up for my baby (Eish!)
(Damn I miss my nigga man, oh, oh)
(Let me say that again, hold on)
(Let me do it, let me say that again, keep it going please)
(Okay, listen...)
My girl left me, she said I was too crazy
I fucked up, couldn't sober up for my baby
I'm hoping there's a heaven, please find him and chill with him
'Cause, me and his mommy couldn't keep it real with him (Dawg!)
Damn I miss my nigga man (Damn I miss my nigga man)
Damn I miss my nigga man
If there's a heaven, please find him and chill with him
'Cause, me and his mommy couldn't keep it real with him
[Chorus]
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
(Yeah, they say you gotta do what you can)
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Back in the day when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
(Yeah, they say you gotta do what you can)
Damn I miss my nigga, man, oh
[Refrain]
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Damn I miss my nigga, man
Oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
It ain't your fault, we love you
It's just uh...
It's difficult when, you feel like you need help becoming a man, you know?
And uh, yo we miss you pops
And uh, I hope you're out there seeing the things that we're doing and it's uhm...
Putting a smile on your face
If you see my little nigga up there tell him I love him and uh...
We gon' be there soon, it's possible
(Damn I miss my nigga man)
