Happy Late Father's Day

Expressing belated wishes for Father's Day

Describing the time of day and the speaker's productive activities

Declining a potential conflict, expressing disinterest in arguing

Having racing thoughts but emphasizing that life is not a competition

Reiterating the belated Father's Day greeting

Repetition of lines 2-4 for emphasis

I ain't tryna fight, not in the mood, I told her not today

Thoughts racing in my head, speeding but it's not a race

Reflecting on the speaker's relationship with their father, acknowledging challenges, and expressing commitment to learning and growing as a parent

Even though he wasn't around much when I was growing up

Never had the best connection, really wasn't close enough

Now I got a son, he look like both of us

Crazy how this life work, I know it's rough

But I'm still learning as I go and still holding up

Time moving at a fast pace so I ain't slowing up

I don't know it all but I can promise you I know enough

Affirming the speaker's responsibility to support their son, regardless of the relationship with the child's mother, trusting in destiny

I can't understand it

Even if his mama was no longer my companion

If it's meant to be then that's the way that God planned it

Emphasizing the importance of paying attention to the son, encouraging and motivating him

Either way it go

Still play my role

I'm not making no excuse, I'm tryna make this paper grow

Motivate my son, tell him "that's my boy, way to go"

Repetition of lines 2-9, reinforcing the central themes of the song

It's like ten o' clock, I'm headed home, I did a lot today

I ain't tryna fight, not in the mood, I told her not today

Thoughts racing in my head, speeding but it's not a race

But happy late father's day

It's like ten o' clock, I'm headed home, I did a lot today

I ain't tryna fight, not in the mood, I told her not today

Thoughts racing in my head, speeding but it's not a race

Expressing determination to be present for the speaker's own son, contrasting with the speaker's own experience of an absent father, and addressing challenges in personal life

I know how that feel, so for him, it's gon' be opposite

Ain't no point in saving revenue, it's still a lot to get

Once you get that money, invest it and make your pockets rich

By the way, I'm a businessman, come and cop a fit

You can't count the paper that you spent when that profit hit

I can hear them talking, they say everything I drop a hit

You could send your best player, bet he won't get hot as this

Overheating, I might have to take a cold shower

I ain't been to sleep in over twenty four hours

One minute she good then everything go sour

Still won't let you raise him on your own, he both ours

Repeating the commitment to shared parenting

Repetition of lines 2-9, concluding the song with a final expression of the belated Father's Day wish

It's like ten o' clock, I'm headed home, I did a lot today

I ain't tryna fight, not in the mood, I told her not today

Thoughts racing in my head, speeding but it's not a race

But happy late father's day

It's like ten o' clock, I'm headed home, I did a lot today

I ain't tryna fight, not in the mood, I told her not today

Thoughts racing in my head, speeding but it's not a race
