Just the Two of Us Lyrics

(Now dad this is a very sensitive subject)

(Just the two of us, yeah)

Just the two of us (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us (Just the two of us)

From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms

I knew I'd meet death before I'd let you meet harm

Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough

Against wrong, choose right and be standing up

From the hospital that first night

Took a hour just ta get the car seat in right

People driving all fast, got me kinda upset

Got you home safe, placed you in your bassinette

That 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 knew I loved you more than life itself (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

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try

Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us, building castles in the sky

Just the two of us, you and I


Five years old, bringing comedy

Every time I look at you I think man, a little me

Just like me 

Wait and 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 emcee

Ha ha I wanna kiss you all the time

But I will test that butt when you cut out of line, tru dat

Uh ah why you do that

I try to be a tough dad, but you be making 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, honour and

And I don't mind if you lose, long as you came with it

And you can cry, ain't no shame it it

It 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 back

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try

Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us, building castles in the sky

Just the two of us, you and I

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try

Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us, building castles in the sky

Just the two of us, you and I

It'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 changing times

101 Dalmations on your CD-ROM

See me I'm

Trying to pretend I know 

On my PC where that CD go

But yo, ain't nothing promised, one day I'll be gone

Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong (life goes on)

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 net, son

Throughout life people will make you mad

Disrespect you and treat you bad

Let God deal with the things they do (things they do)

Cause hate in your heart will consume you too

Always tell the truth, say your prayers (prayers)

Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears

You're living proof that dreams do come true

I love you and I'm here for you

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try

Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us, building castles in the sky

Just the two of us, you and I

-repeat-

Taking on the world taking on the world

(I'm always here for you)

Look over your shoulder I'll be there

(Whatever you need just call on me)

We gonna rise we gonna shine

(Whatever you need I'll be there for you any time)

Just the two of us, we can make it if we try

Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)

Just the two of us, building castles in the sky

Just the two of us, you and I

Daddy loves you daddy loves you for the rest of your life

(This is a really good song dad, how much am I getting paid for this)
