Lyrics
Aye Pops
You working hard giving it everything you got
It ain’t easy being a man I know it be a lot
Sometimes you don’t feel acknowledged they don’t give you your props
I’m here to tell you that we need ya’ll as much as the moms
The role you play is just as important
Kids got a better chance when you there to support em
I know they got a bunch of songs for the mamas
But this one goes out to all of the fathers
I know it’s a lot of pressure to be a provider
Yet you still get your kids everything they desire
Teach em things you wish you knew back when you was younger
That way when they get your age they’ll be wiser
I know my pops did the best that he could
And the way I turned out sh*t I guess he did good
Used to be hard on him made him pay for mistakes
Then one day I realized everybody need grace
When he was gone I probably needed the space
So I could bump my head and figure it out
But don’t listen to the media
Cause over 70% of children got both parents in the house
Shoutout the ones co-parenting working out
And can’t forget the single fathers that’s holding it down
I’m praying for all the ones fighting for they child
Just in case you forgot
Aye Pops
You working hard giving it everything you got
It ain’t easy being a man I know it be a lot
Sometimes you don’t feel acknowledged they don’t give you your props
I’m here to tell you that we need ya’ll as much as the moms
The role you play is just as important
Kids got a better chance when you there to support em
I know they got a bunch of songs for the mamas
But this one goes out to all of the fathers
