Have you ever met someone with a Daddy Unknown?
I still haven't met my daddy and I'm damn near grown
Wasn't apart of my life and I feel so alone
I never woke up in the mornings..
To have my Daddy
Love me
Hug me'
Doing the sweet things that a Daddy does for me
Daddy don't lie'I don't care
But didn't you ever think
You had a sweet young daughter, floating around out there?
Cause I did think about you'
And I did care about you
And I would Dream you'd come get me
But it never came true'
See on me Daddy you missed out
There were times I just wanted to shout!
But the words never left my mouth!
But I'll stand strong
For my Daddy Unknown
I still haven't met you and I'm damn near grown
Wasn't apart of my life and
I still stand strong'
