2 ContributorsTransparent Lyrics [Crescent Moon solo] [Intro] Yo, what's up, y'all? This is Crescent Moon, I'm chilling with Anatomy, Sean from Test Type Trio, gonna put it down for all y'all broke ass fathers, aight? Yeah [Hook] We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life If I see you on the street, I promise you I won't look twice We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life You gotta get it together, baby, you're gonna pay the price [Verse 1] Hey pops, how you doing? Just trying to live? Guess I never really knew you like I thought I did Thought you wouldn't stop the fire til I crossed the bridge Burn it down with me on it, now you lost a kid God forbid you commit and help to raise your seed You made your bed, now I hope you lay awake for weeks Thinking bout life and how you play the sheep You ain't a man or father or even a faded memory I hope you're making music and you're painting I'm just another one of your creations I hope someday you rich and famous Drowning in your money that wasn't worth my payments You were my age, had your whole life in front of you So what you running from, daddy, where you running to? Taught me bout love how you run past Spread none, get none, funny how that comes back [Hook] We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life You must have a heart of clay and blood inside you cold as ice We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life You gotta get it together, baby, you're gonna pay the price [Verse 2] Yeah, you keep a knocking but you can't come in I don't talk to strangers or call em my friend What is that, a grin? Erase your smile At least now, I know how not to raise a child Remember how it feels to be an adolescent? All vulnerable, then have your home hit with a wrecking ball Nowhere to go, but my mother is incredible Ain't my fault children didn't fit into your schedule You always said I understand when I got older I understand now, you're simply not a soldier I was there when she needed somebody to hold her Think this shit's a game? You think you're playing poker? Well I'ma straight flush everything you ever told me And memories of crying in my bedroom lonely I got a billion questions, I'll ask you one: What's a universe without a son? Now I'm done, like [Hook] We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life You weren't there to catch me when I slipped and fell through the thin ice We don't need no motherfucking broke ass papas who don't bother See, you ain't got no son and I ain't got no father [Bridge] Say "Amen" if your pops didn't pay rent Tried to cover it up, couldn't say shit Let me get a "Ho" if your daddy's always broke In the worst way and they still think it's your birthday Let me get an "Oh yeah" If your pops ain't doing too well and you don't care Now, let me get a round of applause For the mothers that be handling they business, down for the cause Like that y'all, like that y'all Like that y'all, like that y'all Like that y'all, like that y'all Like that y'all, like that y'all [Hook] We don't need no motherfucking broke ass fathers in our life If I see you on the street, I promise you I won't look twice We don't need no motherfucking broke ass papas who don't bother See, you ain't got no son and I ain't got no father You ain't got no son and I ain't got no father See, you ain't got no son and I ain't got no father
