Yo, yo, I want to dedicated this song to Philip Harrison up, 'cause he was the one who took me from a boy to a man So as far as I'm concerned, my father 'Cause my didn't bother
Biological father, me in the cold, when a few months old Aa father's child was than gold but I guess not You brought me the world but you're not my dad Mess around with those drugs makes my mad
So we you with no remorsal pity, took the first bus From York to Jersey City, women and child Noww that's pressure, got to go to work, drop me off By Obesa momma, DeDe, whoever aunt Falma, uncle Roy We stuck together, a year went by and I could y'all
Moms got that good ol' job at city She didn't trust men anymore Philip Harrison walk though the door Went out a few times but what about Mom's offered him a million package deal She said, "You me, you gotta take my son"
Or else like a hot dog but without the bun Guess what he accepted, responsibility he never it He kept it, he kept it he took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father, 'cause my didn't bother
He took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father my biological didn't bother He took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father 'cause my biological didn't
He took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father 'cause my biological didn't He took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father 'cause my biological didn't
January fifth, Phil made a promise, that? He the army, we moved to Fort Mamth He disciplined me right the get go Age two and my mom shaquille let go spoiled, rotten, trippin'
Got a butt whippin' I didn't listen Back then you see privates made no Had to get another job trucks Workin' hard as didn't satisfy him Had to another job at the gym
He gone with the wind like Clark Gable Work all them to put food on the table Phil's my father, daddy and the scoop Can I go to the gym with you and shoot some on he, put me under his wing
Was the ball boy for his little team Sometimes he even made me mad but it didn't 'Cause I still to be like dad but a little bit better me to stay in school and to get then good letters I a brainiac but I tried hard
Got to watch the knicks, play if I had a good report All types, all sorts, disobeyed my dad and I play sports I to dribble from right to left, I couldn't do a damn thang all them F's, age fifteen father and son confrontation
That's nothin' but and son trials and tribulation Back I could understand but I'm glad you did it now I'm a man, he took me from a boy to a man So Phil is my father 'cause my biological bother
He took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father 'cause my biological bother
Look at me now successful for Phil raised me to be an entrepeneur And if your making big dope be 'Cause end up another statistic going well following my dreams
I dunked on Ewing, I won the ring like Hakeem Oh, what do you know? Biological on the Ricky Lake show What does he want, does he want What people do for money It's kinda funny to me, he ain't gettin' no from me, check it
He can go on all the talk shows he want is my dad So don't even front, he took me a boy to a man So Phil is my father my biological didn't bother
He me from a boy to a man So Phil is my 'cause my biological didn't bother
