Gods Daughter - Funky DL

You’re Gods daughter, also my Goddaughter

Your life is in a new place now you’ve turned the corner

I hope your future is clear and pure as water

I hope you get to do everything in your life that you wanna

I hope that you can look back on the way that you were brought up

I know that you were loved it’s just a shame that you got caught up

So take these lyrics that your Godfather thought up

It’s all that I can give until the day that I can call up

Verse One

Check it, I’m thinking right back to when you was just so small

When you could hardly talk and just about could stand to walk

I used to hear you in the background of my phone calls to your mum

I tried to visit though you wasn’t local

Do you remember this?

You might not

Your fascination with the luminous green that’s on my Nike watch

It lights up but I wouldn’t let you wear it

I was honoured when your mum asked me to be your Godparent

I said yes although there was no ceremony

But you don’t need no ceremony if you truly know me

You got a little older then you started school

And you would play my songs over guess you thought they were cool

And there were times I used to take you to class

When I would pick you up you’d drag me to the ice cream van

You used to like to pay yourself so you will give him a pound

Then walk away without your change and have to walk back down

You used to love Mickey D’s, Happy Meals with nuggets

Still Fanta, no ice please!

Sweet and sour sauce

And would pick the same seats every time

Yeah you Gods daughter so it’s gone' be fine, you Gods Daughter

Verse Two

I used to take you to the park where you was never idle

I read you stories and even read your Children’s Bible

You used to ask me bout God and Heaven

It’s a shame now the last time I saw you was about age seven

I got your 8th and 9th birthday card and I been trying hard to see you

Now I’m told it’s not so simple

But I promised myself I’d never give up

Til' I exhausted all my options and I didn’t

I see your picture everyday in my crib

And I hope you’re doing well and love the life that you live

And I’m told that your grades are good academically

A lot’s happened but so many good memories remain

So know that you are dearly missed

And God is gonna carry you through times like this

And take you to wherever you deserve to be

And tell you that he loves you in these words through me

This is for Relly Rells and nobody else

Yes it’s for you and not for no company sales

I’m trying to see you and I’m gonna try harder

Cos I love you, take care… soon … your Godfather
