Coming Home

Daddy's really comin' home, just hold tight I just don't know how long I'll be gone this time Just keep my picture on the wall, baby girl don't cry 'Cause I don't know when I'll be home Ever since I was young, it's been my dream To be successful doin' this music thing Music is a part of my soul I'll be sixty years old, still on the road A grown ass man tryin' to make a livin' A grown ass man makin' grown man decisions Relax, I don't want you to work Let me go out here and put in the dirt I'll buy you a skirt, brand new Coach purse Whenever I leave, I know it still hurts What you want a watch, a bracelet or a chain? How about my chest? A tattoo of your name Man, I'm sick of all this luggage that I'm rattlin' Trust me, I'm sick of flights and all this travelin' Two weeks in the UK, three days in Hong Kong It won't be long, I'll be home Daddy's really comin' home, just hold tight I just don't know how long I'll be gone this time Just keep my picture on the wall, baby girl don't cry 'Cause I don't know when I'll be home Look, your daddy has to hit the road And I know you're gettin' old enough to notice that I'm gone And I know I'm your best friend, the one that you look up to Some people think I'm overprotective but I just love you And even though I'm gone I'd rather be home with you And no matter where I'm at your daddy is gon' miss you You're my little man so be nice to your baby sister And give mommy a big hug for daddy and kiss her 'Cause I know she gets tired, at times I feel guilty I wish that I could take y'all with me But it's crazy out here and I don't wanna expose you To the frustrations of this rap game that I go through And honestly I don't even do it for me I do it so we could live life comfortably And that's why I wear y'all proudly around my neck And I don't care who last said it, daddy has your respect And just know that Daddy's really comin' home, just hold tight I just don't know how long I'll be gone this time Just keep my picture on the wall, baby girl don't cry 'Cause I don't know when I'll be home Beep, beep, man, here comes the van I wanna thank Mathew Knowles for giving me a chance Got the advance, now it's time to hit the streets And I'll be home in three and a half weeks What college you goin' to? That's your decision Just know that I'll be here to pay your tuition The only daddy you know and that's on the real And I been takin' care of you since Murray Ill I moved down south, big old house Got you two horses and a lake full of trout And Sundays I put on my new house shoes Lookin' at TV, watchin' the Lions lose I miss Papi, Pug, Pepper and Patches Man, I can't go to sleep on that brand new mattress Even though I mix music in the band Big Boi and Dave, see you at Lake Ann Daddy's really comin' home, just hold tight I just don't know how long I'll be gone this time Just keep my picture on the wall, baby girl don't cry 'Cause I don't know when I'll be home
