Letter to My Daughter - Quando Rondo

Mommy, India got the beats

Ooh, ooh, I, ooh-woah-ooh-oh

Ooh, I, ooh-woah-ooh-woah

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl

You the only one know how I feel

Run it up just to buy the whole world

I don’t care if it cost a hundred mil'

Want you to know you the only one

Made me change the way that I live

As a child, promise you gon' have fun

You ain’t gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

Bought a queen size crib for my baby

Right by you, I’ma lay there

Tell you some stories 'bout how your mama drive me crazy

Crazy that your baby ridin' 'round in a Maybach

Tellin' no to you, baby, I’ll never say that

Take you to the corner where I used to get paid at

My heart got torn, you the one can replace that

Day you were born, I wish that I could go replay that

She gon' tell me she love me, no, I ain’t gotta ask you

Even though I’m on the road, I’m coming back to you

Thought the key to my heart was that flag that’s blue

Keep it G from the start, you a bag on boo

When I walk inside the door, she gon' know it’s me

I’ma tell her 'bout the days they ain’t notice me

I can feel you and you know I’m your Jodeci

You got your name from overseas

We don’t do plain jane, get her new VV’s

Let her watch Dora on a big TV

By the way I growed up, she ain’t gotta see

In the shower with your mama, girl, that’s privacy

She like the way my car crank up, vroom, ride

Innocent princess in my eyes

Brand new Rolex when you turn five

You don’t need no man, I’m by your side

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl

You the only one know how I feel

Run it up just to buy the whole world

I don’t care if it cost a hundred mil'

Want you to know you the only one

Made me change the way that I live

As a child, promise you gon' have fun

You ain’t gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

You know I’ma dedicate my life to you, baby girl

You know it’s just me, you, and these two double cups

Listen up

It’s a true story, baby girl

Bigger, swear I can’t wait 'til she bigger

Every time she quiet, daddy’s girl gettin' paper

Pop stickin' all these blues, you can call it father figures

I’ma do whatever just to make you smile

Search for you, walk a thousand miles

Won’t catch no tear comin' down my eyes

Girl, you my gift, my winning prize

And I’ma safe to say that it ain’t safe to ride

I have to speak the truth before I tell a lie

They ever fuck with you, I swear they gonna die

I’ll do a hundred life just to feed my child

Over-dedicated, I’m infatuated

Do anything to see my girl situated

I’m sorry I got in this situation

I’ma blame it on the lean and the liquor, baby

I done dedicated my whole heart to you, girl

You the only one know how I feel

Run it up just to buy the whole world

I don’t care if it cost a hundred mil'

Want you to know you the only one

Made me change the way that I live

As a child, promise you gon' have fun

You ain’t gotta worry 'bout a dollar bill

She like the way my car crank up, vroom, ride

I dedicate my life to you, girl
