Just the two of us, yeah
Just the two of us
Just the two of usFrom the first time the doctor placed you in my arms
I knew I'd meet death 'fore I'd let you meet harm
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough?
Against wrong, choose right and be standin' up
From the hospital that first night
Took a hour just ta get the car seat in right
People drivin' all fast, got me kinda upset
Got you home safe, placed you in your basinetteThat night I don't think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt
'Cause I know I loved you more than life itself
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord please
Let me be a good daddy, all he needs
Love, knowledge, discipline too
I pledge my life to you, uhJust the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and IFive years old, bringing comedy
Everytime I look at you I think man a little me just like me
Wait an see gonna be tall makes me laugh 'cause
You got your dads ears an all
Sometimes I wonder, what you gonna be?
A General, a Doctor, maybe a MC
Haha, I wanna kiss you all the time
But I will test that butt when you cut outta line
Trudat uh uh uh why you do dat?
I try to be a tough dad, but you be makin' me laugh
Crazy joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy
I pledge to you, I will always do
Everything I can show you how to be a man
Dignity, integrity, honor an' I don't mind if you lose
Long as you came with it an' you can cry, ain't no shame it itIt didn't work out with me an your mom
But yo, push come to shove you was conceived in love
So if the world attacks, and you slide off track
Remember one fact, I got your backJust the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and IIt's a full time job to be a good dad
You got so much more stuff than I had
I gotta study just to keep with the changin' times
101 Dalmations on your CD-ROM
See me, I'm tryin to pretend I know
On my PC where that CD goBut yo, ain't nuthin' promised, one day I'll be gone
Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong
But just in case, it's my place to impart
One day some girl's gonna break your heart
And ooh ain't no pain like from the opposite sex
Gonna hurt bad, but don't take it out on the next sonThroughout life people will make you mad
Disrespect you and treat you bad
Let God deal with the things they do
'Cause hate in your heart will consume you too
Always tell the truth, say your prayers
Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears
You're living proof that dreams come true
I love you and I'm here for you, uhJust the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and IJust the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and IJust the two of us, I'm always here for you
Whatever you need just call on me
Whatever you need I'll be there for anytime
You and IJust the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
You and I, just the two of us
