(Chorus:) It takes a whole nation To help me raise this generation When you look out at the window , tell me what do you see? If it's a world without a father then you're looking at me It takes a whole nation To help me raise this generatoin My respect to the mothers that be holding it down , But it sho' would be nice to have my daddy around (Verse 1:) All I need is one mike, I know you can see . I'm not a rapper ,but theres some dudes just like me. Every time you took a picture of you and your family It was only two people when it's supposed to be three. It was suppose to be me asking [why is the sky blue? and when I grow up I wanna be like you]. Yo daddy, can you teach me how to [tie my shoes, Can I go with you to work so I can see what you do?] Let me see what you do So I can love my kid too. But you didn't stick around , Was that too much to ask of you? Too much to get a blueprint [no] , Too much to show the way [no], That's the reason why this building is not finished still today. [We were lost boys], still we wanna believe That [my daddy's coming back, he didn't forget about me ] Like a child after school , we sit and we wait , [I know that you gone come] but that was '78. (chorus) (Verse 2:) They say raising kids is the parents responsibility , But it's a million of y'a ll and only one of me . What happen to the village? As far as I can see, It's been burned down by this modern day slavery. [For eleven years I been living here; I've seen momma cry more than eleven tears. Watching moma be daddy while he slips away Does Jesus really hear kids when they pray?] Momma working two jobes, She can't do it alone, She shouldn't have to , She didn't get knocked up on her own. And I know that baby mommas drama brother is real, But before yhou chose the door don't forget how it feels - remember [daddy missed my game and I made a touchdown, I won the talent show, but you weren't around. If a girl brakes my heart, What I do with da pain?] And one more thing daddy [can you tell me my name?] (Vamp:) Ain't nothing gonna break me down... Cant let nobody take me down Cant let nobody break me Me downnnn
