From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms I knew Id meet death before Id 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 carseat in right People drivin all fast got me kinda upset Got you home safe placed you in your basonette That night I dont 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
Chorus
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

Verse 3
Its 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 im Tryin to pretend I know On my pc where that cd go But yo aint nuthin promised one day Ill be gone Feel the strife but trust life does go wrong But just in case Its my place To impart One day some girls gonna break your heart And ooh aint no pain like from the opposite sex Gonna hurt bad but dont take it out on the next son Throughout 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 Youre living proof that dreams do come true I love you and Im here for you
