Girl Dad

The day they told me that you autistic
I told 'em that she artistic
And you can paint the world whatever color you want my love

My life changed the moment I became a 'Girl Dad'
I look into ya eyes and I just want to give you
Everything the world has
I pray I never set you on the wrong path
I wish I had the power to freeze time
Cause every day I see you growin' fast
I'm a 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, this is Prophecy
And I hope one day you gone tell me how you proud of me
Cause I'm a 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, gotta set an example
Cause you always walkin' round the house mockin' me

Baby you my core, you my soul, you my center
I'll go the extra mile so you won't have to meet me halfway
I remember the ultrasound when they first revealed ya gender
I went and bought a brand-new shotgun that day
I'll be ya sword and shield in shinin' armor your protector
Whatever you need me to be I'll add it to the resume
I knew that you'd be beautiful before ya 1st breath
The irony, I 1st laid eyes on you
And girl you took my breath away
I got so many fears about ya future when you grown
But I'm more fearful for anybody that ever does you wrong
Cause daddy got some anger issues that he still workin' thru
And that's a message for anybody that ever plans on hurtin' you
Cause nobody will stand beside of you
Unless they are ready to die for you
I'll put everything out on the line for you
And know that that goes for ya mama too
Cause loyalty never been optional
That's the family motto, I don't gamble much but I know
That with you I hit the lotto

My life changed the moment I became a 'Girl Dad'
I look into ya eyes and I just want to give you
Everything the world has
I pray I never set you on the wrong path
I wish I had the power to freeze time
Cause every day I see you growin' fast
I'm a 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, this is Prophecy
And I hope one day you gone tell me how you proud of me
Cause I'm a 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, gotta set an example
Cause you always walkin' round the house mockin' me

Lovin' you is priority you never gone be secondary
I'll never do anything that leads to prison or a cemetery
We gone be together on first of every January
Gowin' up without a father figure won't be hereditary
Cause daddy never had a man to show 'em how to do this
If it wasn't for ya mama girl I promise I'd be clueless
I try to teach you but somehow
You turn me back into the student
As I hold you in my arms I know our bond is the truest

My life changed the moment I became a 'Girl Dad'
I look into ya eyes and I just want to give you
Everything the world has
I pray I never set you on the wrong path
I wish I had the power to freeze time
Cause everyday I see you growin' fast
I'm a 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, this is Prophecy
And I hope one day you gone tell me you finally proud of me
Cause I'ma 'Girl Dad' and I'm proud to be, gotta set an example
Cause you always walkin' round the house mockin' me

The day they told me that you autistic
I told 'em that she artistic
And you can paint the world whatever color you want my love
You see the brightest gradient on the spectrum
Is your imagination, it's fascinating
You were appointed the professor of this class I'm takin'
And I took it to another degree when you were gifted to me and I graduated
(It's a girl, congratulations)
