(intro)
baby jade, you’re probably not old enough to understand the strugglez of an adult yet. but i alwayz told you i would never lie and i never will. i just need you to know, everybody makez mistakez. even your parentz. we were not perfect. we were young, dumb and selfish!
(1st verse)
now daddy made a promise that daddy will never lie
so daddy will keep it true ‘cause i’m your daddy for life
even though your life almost didn’t come to be
you see, we couldn’t even afford another mouth to feed
‘cause daddy wanted to go to college / i didn’t have a job
thinking selfish thoughtz / should we have you or not???
tearz drop from my eyez / staying up late at night
argued with your mama even though we really hate to fight
see disappointment in her eyez / my success was out of reach
eviction notice on our door and our endz will never meet
billz were stacking up high / overbearing was the stress
trying hard to force a smile when i seen that plus sign on the test
mamaz rubbing on her belly but i was scared to love you
i pulled my hand away when she was asking me to touch you
i alwayz loved you deep inside although i didn’t show it
i’m so happy that i kept you and i’m gonna make up for it!
(chorus)
yeah, we got a little shook when timez were hard
until i held you for the first time tightly in my armz
i would’a hated myself forever if i ever would’a left ya
my baby jade / i’m so happy that i kept ya
yeah, we got a little shook when timez were bad
until i looked into your eyez / i’m proud to be your dad
i would’a hated myself forever if i ever would’a left ya
my baby jade / i’m so happy that i kept ya!
(2nd verse)
now we’re sitting in the clinic / i’m hoping you’ll forgive us
ashamed of ourselvez / waiting for the pain to hit us
the only guy up in the room / the rest were hiding in their carz
i see the tearz fall down her face and now i face a change of heart
felt the weight lift off our shoulderz / canceled the procedure
took at look into each otherz eyez and knew we didn’t need to be there
wiped away her tearz falling as we exited the doorz
see the protesterz madd-gg-ng / calling her a ‘wh0r-’
walked straight to the car / not looking back once at the clinic
can’t believe we almost did it / i’m so happy that we didn’t
let it go / just let it be / let destiny take over now
we’re gonna be a mom and daddy for the second time around
told mariah that shez getting a new sister or a brother
saw the smile up on her face as she grabbed and hugged her mother
deep inside i couldn’t hide the fear of my family going broke thinking ‘could we really do this???’ / but i really didn’t know!!
(chorus / 3rd verse)
i was there when you were born / when you first opened your eyez
with a smile up on my face / looking down at you with pride
daddyz little girl / yeah / daddyz little princess
feeling guilty still / how could we ever wanna k!ll this???
blinded for a little minute but now we clearly see
that money ain’t a d-mn thing when it comez to family
the nurse iz handing me this little bundle of love
i felt her hand grab on my finger / thanked my god up above
i love her mom so much for walking away while she could
all women have the right to choose / it doesn’t mean that they would
we got a little shook / on the verge of going homeless
but the heavenz went and blessed us when we were looking hopeless
see you smile at me when i lay you on my chest
and i’m gonna make up for this till my very last breath
would’a hated myself forever if i ever would’a left ya
baby jade / my princess / daddy iz so happy that he kept ya!!!
(chorus / outro)
everybody makez mistakez, baby. but you were not one. our reaction to you was the mistake and we’ll alwayz regret it and try our best to make up for it. we love you. mommy lovez you. daddy lovez you. alwayz and forever. macaroni and b-tter, baby
