Moms got that good ol' job at hall She probably didn't trust men Until Philip walk though the door Went out a few times but about Shaquille Mom's offered him a million dollar package She said, "You me, you gotta take my son"
Or else it's a hot dog but without the bun Guess he accepted, responsibility he never left it He kept it, he kept it he me from a boy to a man So Phil is my father, 'cause my biological bother
