Dear, Baby Girl

Dear, mini me
Little baby boo
Let me tell you something just in case you never knew
I was only 17 when I wished upon you
As I walked the avenue
Just a ghetto Mexican on his way to school
But one thing true
Never in one million years did I ever knew
I'd be surrounded by peeps
That would so desperately
Try to make it hard for me
To build a life with you
Like what the fuck did I do
In my past life
Or maybe that is just the repercussions of a fast life
Either way despite of what I tried
I could never ever find
A way for you to be by my side
But trust believe I spent the whole time
Putting up a fight
With the demons in my mind
With these people trying to find
A way and a reason to keep you from my life
So today I sit and I write
Some ghetto poetry and it goes like this
So today I sit and write some ghetto poetry and it goes like this

Dear baby girl
I thought I knew what life was
Until I looked into your eyes
And you said that you love me
Little kiss and you hugged me
You remember that day
You stood the night at my place
Woke me up in the morning
'Cause you wanted to play
Can't forget that day
Was the last time you came
Then they took you away
After that I felt the heartbreak
'Specially when I seen the tears on your face
It's a moment that I can't erase
From my mind 'cause nobody in this world can replace
You from my life
'Cause you are my daughter
My little baby girl
And you are my world
Don't forget this
Nobody is above you
You're the owner of my heart
And I love it this way

Dear baby girl
I thought I knew what life was
Until I looked into your eyes
And you said that you love me
Little kiss and you hugged me
You remember that day
You stood the night at my place
Woke me up in the morning
'Cause you wanted to play
Can't forget that day
Was the last time you came
Then they took you away
After that I felt the heartbreak
'Specially when I seen the tears on your face
It's a moment that I can't erase
From my mind 'cause nobody in this world can replace
You from my life
'Cause you are my daughter
My little baby girl
And you are my world
Don't forget this
Nobody is above you
You're the owner of my heart
And I love it this way

And in case your mother didn't raise you to believe
Your father is an artist so this I guarantee
You are born with talents let me help you find and seek
'Cause you carry my genes
Yes, you carry my feats
Little girl looking just like me
This is true
I embrace everything that you are
Everything that I see
'Cause I see me in you
And despite the peeps
Trying to build a wall between
The love I feel for you
I always believed
That the outcome would be
You by my side
'Cause my love for you
Is stronger than the hate inside
The heart of these people who've tried
To keep you from my life
These are facts
'Cause my love for you is infinity
Their hate is evil and strong
But my love for you is divinity
I hope you know how special you are
But that doesn't mean that life will be easy
'Cause life is hard
So you gotta be harder
Learn from your mother, baby
Learn from your father
And no matter what you choose to be
Regardless if a job or a college degree
You'll always be my daughter
And that means that I'll be
Always be your side
And never will there be
A person that can put bad energy
Between you and me
'Cause with me
There's no right or wrong
Just a father down to ride for his daughter
Always by your side
Always be you and I
That's the way it should be
That's the way it will be
For eternity
So allow me to repeat
My ghetto poetry

Dear baby girl
I thought I knew what life was
Until I looked into your eyes
And you said that you love me
Little kiss and you hugged me
You remember that day
You stood the night at my place
Woke me up in the morning
'Cause you wanted to play
Can't forget that day
Was the last time you came
Then they took you away
After that I felt the heartbreak
Specially when I seen the tears on your face
It's a moment that I can't erase
From my mind 'cause nobody in this world can replace
You from my life
'Cause you are my daughter
My little baby girl
And you are my world
Don't forget this
Nobody is above you
You're the owner of my heart
And I love it this way

Dear baby girl
I thought I knew what life was
Until I looked into your eyes
And you said that you love me
Little kiss and you hugged me
You remember that day
You stood the night at my place
Woke me up in the morning
'Cause you wanted to play
Can't forget that day
Was the last time you came
Then they took you away
After that I felt the heartbreak
Specially when I seen the tears on your face
It's a moment that I can't erase
From my mind 'cause nobody in this world can replace
You from my life
'Cause you are my daughter
My little baby girl
And you are my world
Don't forget this
Nobody is above you
You're the owner of my heart
And I love it this way
