Around Town

You known around town for what you do best
Trying to be like every other boy you see
just trying to get up in that girls pants
But when the baby comes you're in shock and can't even breathe

Deadbeat daddy want to get up and leave
Don't live to see that tree grow tall you see
'cuz all he known for is to make babies
but when they cme he don't want o have nothing to do with them

The tree is sprouting
spreading its branches to take inthe fresh air
but don't have a daddy to be there
to help her when she needs him near

Death for you is just another moment to show you don't care
the tree tries to breathe but realizes there is no fresh air
Death is near and soon she will be laying in the grae
thinking about how daddy was never there

Thinking why was ny dad even there when he didn't care
only though of himself just so that he can get by
knowing that her father just wanted to see her cry
crying that night when she knew he would never come
