Like Father Like Son 2 - The Game, Busta Rhymes

Remember me?

Like father, like son

Had a million dollars 'fore I was 1

Cause my daddy hustle

We good now

Cause my daddy hustle

We out the hood now

Cause my daddy hustle

Winning like Steph Curry in the chip though

Used to be the only one, now I’m the big bro (I'm big too)

Know my daddy schizo, don’t mess with his kids yo

Me and my brother tight (yeah), we like the Klitschkos

I love you daddy

Ten years later, I love you too sons

I do life in the box if they ever fuck with my two sons

You’re my lil' man, I remember the first day you came out

Your lil' face, your big nose, your lil' feet, your lil' hands

You turned one, come in the room wobbly, lil' stance

And every time I walked in the house he used to do this lil' dance

On the cover of the album with them Chucks on

You cried for 6 hours, your mama in here going nuts on me

She said you had enough, I said we having fun

All babies cry when they’re one, my career had just begun

And so did being a daddy

Car seat in my Escalade, you want me in the Caddy

Playing Like Father, Like Son, looking in the back seat

He don’t look nothing like his mama if you ask me

On the first album Busta Rhymes did the hook

Now he can do it for himself, watch him and his uncle cook

I’m glad you grew up to becoming everything you could be

That’s all I wanted for you young’n, like father, like son

And in the end I’m glad you only turned out better than me

I hope you know I love you young’n, like father, like son

Your daddy told you it was coming

Coming, your day was coming, I told you

Now daddy’s here just keep on running

Running, just keep on running, I tell you

I wanna thank my baby mamas Tiff and Eliska for everything

Y’all deserve the world, I wasn’t worthy of no wedding ring

It ain’t be one day since I met you I wasn’t there for you

Wasn’t husband material, but you know I really cared for you

And I know you remember that time when he was 5

All these tours taking the toll, I can see it in his eyes

So I stopped tours, stopped rapping, didn’t give a fuck about

Nothing that happened after recording The Doctor’s Advocate

Catching up with my son, cause ain’t nothing more important

Than walking inside the Footlocker, copping them matching Jordans

Helping him with his jumper, the day he turned 9

I asked him what he want for his birthday, he said to spend some time

So we kick it, that’s my best friend, I don’t have to get married

He still my best man, and that’s forever

Anybody can be a daddy, just bust a nut and leave

But I’m a father, and I’ma be everything he need and more

I’m glad you grew up to becoming everything you could be

That’s all I wanted for you young’n, like father, like son

And in the end I’m glad you only turned out better than me

I hope you know I love you young’n, like father, like son

Your daddy told you it was coming

Coming, your day was coming, I told you

Now daddy’s here just keep on running

Running, just keep on running, I tell you

Every time I get in this booth

I’m reminded ten years ago I did it for you

Had this vision for you, and I know your daddy get in trouble sometimes

But I’ma stay up out this prison for you, I mean

You all my seed, lil' brother and both of your sisters

You all I need like Method and MJB

And I know I be wildin' sometimes, you told me («Breathe daddy») (1,1, 2,2, 3,3,

Furthermore, I’m try’na stay outta trouble just for my sons

Even though it feel weird leaving my house without a gun

I just gotta do it, cause they might grow up and do this shit

Just cause they father do it, fuck with my kids and six Bloods

Jumping out a Buick, understand Puff choking that man for Jus

I’ma do my stuff even if I land in fucking cuffs

For every nigga out here without a kid

Have one and that’s gon be the best shit you ever did

One

I’m Harlem, The Game’s oldest son

I make straight A’s and I’m a good kid

But more importantly, I’m safe

Because my daddy hustled his way out of Compton

So I could have a better life

That’s my daddy

And I wish all kids had one like mine

The world would be a better place

One

(Wait Harlem, I wanna say something)
