[Intro]
Daddy this for you
Hm, haha
[Verse 1]
Daddy
I had just got off the plane, I needed some sleep (I did)
Montae kept calling my phone, repeatedly
I didn't wanna talk, I ignored his call 'cause I was sleepy
Then when I picked up at 2 p.m
He told me my daddy had got shot, four times
Immediately tears start coming down my eyes
And I started crying (I cried)
'Cause I ain't know if he was gon' make it
Them hospital folks weren't sayin' shit (What?)
I was just tryna be patient (Yeah)
When I seen him in that ICU room
Boy, you know I went crazy (Oh, man)
Cause I couldn't see my daddy like that, that's my baby (My daddy)
In other words, he my best friend, talk to him daily (Okay)
Them n***as who did it to him, I hope they praying (To who?)
To God but he can't help you in this situation (Nah)
[Chorus]
Daddy I gotchu (Daddy)
Daddy I love ya (Daddy)
Daddy my partner (Daddy)
Daddy my best friend
Daddy, this one here is for you (Daddy)
Daddy, I'ma do it for you (Daddy, daddy)
I'ma find out who did that to you (Daddy)
I'ma find out who did that to you (Daddy)
Daddy, just put your trust in me
Don't worry about nothing
'Cause I got 'em
I'ma do it for you (Daddy)
[Verse 2]
I lost my mind when it happened at first (Daddy)
Dropped down straight to my knees and told God I'm glad I serve him (Daddy)
To see them tubes in his mouth yeah, it sadly hurt me
My mind, I wasn't tryna lose
I was ready to kill any person (Daddy)
Anybody who had anything to do with it
I'm by myself, I don't need no help, no crew with me
Shot your daddy in his barbershop, n***a how would you feel? (Daddy)
I pray that my daddy hang out, walk around for the rest of his life wit' a limp (What the news say?)
They hit him in his side four times
Talk to him today, he said he walking with his head up so high
Asked him how he made it through it?
He said one word, "God"
Pulling up like the Mob (Yeah)
I know that he hurting but I just want to let you know
[Chorus]
Daddy I gotchu (Daddy)
Daddy I love ya (Daddy)
Daddy my partner (Daddy)
Daddy my best friend
Daddy, this one here is for you (Daddy)
Daddy, I'ma do it for you (Daddy, daddy)
I'ma find out who did that to you (Daddy)
I'ma find out who did that to you (Daddy)
Daddy, just put your trust in me
Don't worry about nothing
'Cause I got 'em
I'ma do it for you (Daddy)
[Outro]
I'm gon' do it for you (Daddy)
I'm gon' do it for you (Daddy)
I'm gon' do it for you (Daddy)
If they ask me who I do it for
You gon' know I'm gon' tell 'em I do it for my

This is for my (Daddy)
This is for my (Daddy)
This for my daddy
This for my daddy
I said this for my daddy
This for my daddy
Daddy, get well soon
Why did you do that to my daddy? (Daddy)
Why did you do that to my daddy (Daddy), my daddy
My only question is "why did you do that to my daddy?" (Daddy)
Why did you do him like that
He ain't hurt nobody
Why you do him like that
Please don't ask no questions
When I do you like that
