Daddy Told Me by JmtheMelomane Lyrics
(VERSE 1)
You told me to be brave
Because on my way
I'm gonna meet some snakes who wanna take my place
They only have the loyalty for the money
Be careful when a girl starts saying honey
You told me to choose wisely my homies
Never tell them everything you have in your head
Be careful of every word that you say
Cuz one day they will use it to put dirt on your name
Everything you taught me I memorized it
I didn't smoke weed when they legalized it
You told me to stay sober
Ease off the liquor
Stay away from drugs even if you feel the pain
And don't you dare disrespect my last name
And work hard even when you're hungry
This life is yours
You just gotta take it
And trust in GOD to find your own way
(CHORUS)
I know we haven't talked for a while I'm sorry
My ego and my pride get the best of me
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
I've been on my grind I've been by my lonely
I don't have the time to express my feelings
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
Eh eh
(VERSE 2)
You told me to be righteous and trustworthy
I know I told you lies but you forgave me
I'm dealing with my own probs
Tryna be my own boss
Lacking so much money but I'm gonna find a way
You told me pay attention to your studies
Cuz knowledge is the best tool to become rich
I followed my own heart
I don't want a day job
Music is the only thing that makes me feel a way
I know that I'm gonna die one day
But my art will never fade away
I just want y'all to remember me
As the biggest artist put respect on my name
You told me little boy you man know nothing
This world is cruel and they will spit on your face
If you ain't got money man you ain't nothing
Naow I understand everything that you told me
(CHORUS)*2
I know we haven't talked for a while I'm sorry
My ego and my pride get the best of me
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
I've been on my grind I've been by my lonely
I don't have the time to express my feelings
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
You told me to be brave
Because on my way
I'm gonna meet some snakes who wanna take my place
They only have the loyalty for the money
Be careful when a girl starts saying honey
You told me to choose wisely my homies
Never tell them everything you have in your head
Be careful of every word that you say
Cuz one day they will use it to put dirt on your name
Everything you taught me I memorized it
I didn't smoke weed when they legalized it
You told me to stay sober
Ease off the liquor
Stay away from drugs even if you feel the pain
And don't you dare disrespect my last name
And work hard even when you're hungry
This life is yours
You just gotta take it
And trust in GOD to find your own way
(CHORUS)
I know we haven't talked for a while I'm sorry
My ego and my pride get the best of me
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
I've been on my grind I've been by my lonely
I don't have the time to express my feelings
But I always listened what my daddy told me
I can never forget what my daddy told me
