[00:01.222](Yeah. This is a letter to my baby girl, when you're old enough to understand this.)
[00:11.498]Hey Nala, this is a message from your father (please listen)
[00:14.118]I just wanted to tell you a few things before life gets a little harder
[00:19.699]And I can no longer protect you in this armor (I hope you understand)
[00:23.063]I had to write this letter to you, baby girl
[00:25.703]Some things you need to know before you step into this crazy world (it's crazy)
[00:28.418]And trust me, you're gonna have a lot of questions (loads)
[00:30.981]You've got a lot of blessings but you need a lot of lessons (a lot)
[00:33.847]Fake lovе is a disguise, don't let it be your dеmise, aight?
[00:38.403]So here's how you move around it (move around it)
[00:40.103]When you tell your friends good news, are they calm and cool about it (huh), or are they over the moon about it (?)?
[00:45.490]Cause sometimes your closest ain’t really riding with you (trust)
[00:48.335]And you gotta watch them if they ain’t excited as you (gotta watch them)
[00:51.045]And don’t think it can’t happen cause it’s someone you hug (yeah)
[00:53.997]Cause that knife in the back can be from someone you love (scary)
[00:56.910]Who does things for you for nothing in return (who?)
[00:59.484]And you know who’s always showing the concern (who?)
[01:01.335]Who’s always sending love to you, who’s always checking up on you (a real one)
[01:04.657]And when you cry who’s always there to comfort you, that’s your friend (trust)
[01:08.129]And make sure the love you get, you give to them (please)
[01:10.928]Cause I don’t want you to turn out as the bitter friend (never)
[01:13.562]Forgiving and forgetting was the worst advice (worst)
[01:16.568]Don’t give anyone a chance to hurt you twice (trust)
[01:19.387]Forgive but please never forget (never)
[01:21.997]Cause they'll take advantage and you'll never get the respect (facts)
[01:24.372]Never break the trust of someone that cares
[01:26.768]Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair (that's the reason)
[01:30.211]And one day you’ll fall in love so I’ll tell you this best
[01:33.587]Baby, please know you’re worth and never settle for less (never)
[01:36.450]Only if they value you, got big plans for you, And never let them put their hands on you (I'll kill him)
[01:41.830]You won't ever have to rely on another man (never)
[01:44.739]Anything you want you know your papa can (I've got it)
[01:47.550]I’ll teach you how to be a boss so that you understand (boss)
[01:50.394]So a man can’t impress you with no rubber bands (no)
[01:50.758][Hook]
[01:53.123]You know your daddy's always here, baby girl
[01:55.637]If you ever cry, you know I'll wipe your tears, baby girl
[01:58.441]Everybody falls down, don't be scared, baby girl
[02:01.139]I’ll pick you up and put that crown back on your head, baby girl
[02:03.995]You know your daddy's always here, baby girl
[02:06.798]If you ever cry, you know I'll wipe your tears, baby girl
[02:09.671]Everybody falls down, don't be scared, baby girl
[02:12.450]I’ll pick you up and put that crown back on your head, baby girl (yeah)
[02:12.758]
[02:12.950][Verse 2]
[02:15.322]And no matter what I’ll always be grateful to your mother
[02:19.694]I’ll forever show gratitude (?)
[02:21.195]I watched your mom crying in pain as she carried you
[02:24.100]So bear that in mind before you give her any attitude (hahaha)
[02:26.975]If I ain’t around by the time, you understand this (you understand this), I just want you to understand this (understand this)
[02:33.578]I love you way more than my words explain (that's crazy)
[02:35.746]When you were born, my entire purpose changed (changed)
[02:38.436]I would've bought the maddest cars and had me swerving lanes
[02:41.189]Instead I bought a couple houses for you just to just firm the rain (I've got you)
[02:43.978]Or if life does 2020 again
[02:46.291]So just know when your dad‘s got you've got things to fall back on (?)
[02:49.558]And make sure the business grows so we can pass it on to you
[02:52.336]Then one day you can pass it on too (yeah, for real)
[02:54.806]Keep it in the family, control how we live
[02:57.671]One day you realize how important this is (you will)
[03:00.427]I want you to 'member this when you're stressing (?)
[03:03.342]Trust me you’ll make mistakes but use it as a lesson (facts)
[03:06.273]I know you can’t go back and change the beginning
[03:09.021]But you can start again now and change the ending (yeah)
[03:11.603]Nala, it’s never too late (never), so please don’t ever think this (please)
[03:14.920]One minute, it was rags the next minute, it was riches (?)
[03:17.427]Doing well with something you love will take persistence
[03:20.565]And if they hold you back princess love them from a distance (please)
[03:23.274]You had a Uncle Blaine, I wish you could’ve met him (Cad)
[03:26.250]He’s the one who taught me this very last lesson
[03:28.870]If you're on bad terms with someone you love, message them
[03:31.670]Cause you don’t really know how much time you got left with them (you don't)
[03:34.722]Anyway, before I go I wanna say this (yeah)
[03:37.474]I’ve had so many gifts from friends have been amazing (true)
[03:40.237]But the gift of having you was the greatest
[03:43.020]I just hope I’m still here when you can play this. I love you
[03:43.440]
[03:43.696][Hook]
[03:45.872]You know your daddy's always here, baby girl
[03:48.516]If you ever cry, you know I'll wipe your tears, baby girl
[03:51.338]Everybody falls down, don't be scared, baby girl
[03:54.156]I’ll pick you up and put that crown back on your head, baby girl
