[00:04.41] You really need some therapy

[00:06.66] Real nigga need no therapy, fuck you talkin' about?

[00:08.65] Nah, nah, you sound stupid as fuck

[00:09.41] Shit, everybody stupid

[00:11.14] Yeah, well, you need to talk to someone

[00:13.91] Reach out to Eckhart

[00:30.14] I come from a generation of home invasions and I got daddy issues, that's on me

[00:34.91] Everything them four walls had taught me, made habits bury deep

[00:39.39] That man knew a lot, but not enough to keep me past them streets

[00:41.40] My life is a plot, twisted from directions that I can't see

[00:44.16] Daddy issues run across my head, told me, "Fuck a foul"

[00:47.65] I'm teary-eyed, wanna throw my hands, I won't think out loud

[00:50.41] A foolish pride, if I lose again, won't go in the house

[00:53.66] I stayed outside, laughin' with my friends, they don't know my life

[00:56.16] Daddy issues made me learn losses, I don't take those well

[01:00.40] Momma said, "That boy is exhausted," he said, "Go fuck yourself

[01:03.65] If he give up now, that's gon' cost him.c Life's a bitch

[01:06.41] You could be a bitch or step out the marginc I got up quick

[01:09.66] I'm chargin' baskets and falling backwards, tryna keep balance

[01:12.66] Oh, this the part where mental stability meets talent

[01:15.90] Oh, this the part, he breaks my humility just for practice

[01:19.17] Tactics we learned together, sore losers forever, daddy issues

[01:22.91] Early mornin' wake ups (Ah) practicin' on day-offs (Ah)

[01:25.66] Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

[01:28.92] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

[01:30.66] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chase

[01:34.91] Early mornin' wake ups (Ah), practicin' on day-offs (Ah, day-offs)

[01:37.91] Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

[01:40.41] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

[01:43.16] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser

[01:49.17] I got daddy issues, that's on me

[01:51.16] Lookin' for, "I love you," rarely empathizin' for my relief

[01:54.66] A child that grew accustomed, jumping up when I scraped my knee

[01:57.15] 'Cause if I cried about it, he'd surely tell me not to be weak

[02:00.91] Daddy issues, hid my emotions, never expressed myself

[02:03.91] Man should never show feelings, being sensitive never helped

[02:07.16] His momma died, I asked him why he goin' back to work so soon?

[02:10.16] His first reply was:,"Son, that's life, the bills got no silver spoon"

[02:15.16] Daddy issues, fuck everybody, go get your money, son

[02:16.66] Protect yourself, trust nobody, only your momma'nem

[02:19.40] This made relationships seem cloudy, never attached to none

[02:23.66] So if you took some likings around me, I might reject the love

[02:26.91] Daddy issues kept me competitive, that's a fact, nigga

[02:29.39] I don't give a fuck what's the narrative, I am that nigga

[02:31.91] When Kanye got back with Drake, I was slightly confused

[02:35.64] Guess I'm not mature as I think, got some healin' to do

[02:38.41] Egotistic, zero-given fucks and to be specific (Ah)

[02:41.42] Need assistance with the way I was brought up (Ah, ah)

[02:43.90] What's the difference when your heart is made of stone

[02:46.17] And your mind is made of gold

[02:47.89] And your tongue has made of sword, but it may weaken your soul?

[02:50.67] My niggas ain't got no daddy, grow up overcompensatin'

[02:53.40] Learn shit 'bout bein' a man and disguise it as bein' gangsta

[02:56.91] I love my father for tellin' me to take off the gloves

[03:00.13] 'Cause everything he didn't want was everything I was

[03:03.66] And to my partners that figured it out without a father

[03:06.90] I salute you, may your blessings be neutral to your toddlers

[03:09.40] It's crucial, they can't stop us if we see the mistakes

[03:12.41] 'Til then, let's give the women a break, grown men with daddy issues

[03:28.91] Early mornin' wake ups (Ah), practicin' on day-offs (Ah, day-offs)

[03:31.91] Tough love (Ah), bottled up, no chaser (Ah)

[03:35.16] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser (Ah)

[03:37.67] Neat, no chaser (Ah), neat, no chaser
