[Verse 1: Lil Skies]
Lookin' at us today, what's the relationship?
Alls we work on this music and you just gave me tips
It feels like I'm trapped in a bubble
But see, a son raised without his father in his life really tends to struggle
See, every day in the basement, you was smokin' weed
You left me upstairs and never cared about my needs
You only came around me when you had money
To try and make happy, but I just thought it was really funny how you
Thought child support was enough
That I was layin' in the dirt, diamond in the rough
But lookin' back, alls it really did was make me tough
Lookin' for some love, but alls I found was a lot of lust
Uh, but now I'm all grown'd up and now I'm blowin' up
You focused on your dream but forgot about your son
I was your number two choice but not your number one
It's all good because now I'll know how to treat my son
[Chorus: Lil Skies & Skies]
Father-Son talk, let's talk about the love
Let's talk about the hate, let's talk about the drugs (Yeah)
Matter fact, son, let's talk about the good
The bad, the ugly, the phony, we should
Better yet, dad, let's talk about the pain
The gain, the rain, the strength, we should (Yeah)
Matter fact, dad, let's talk about the girls
The drama, the money, the power, the world (Uh)
[Verse 2: Skies]
I remember when I had to say goodbye to you
Layin' in that coma, thinkin' why I say "goodbye" to you (Talk to me)
Understand, Ki, I knew I had a second chance
And you ain't even cry, such a strong little man, damn
Yeah, and all that time that was wasted
I know that there's no way that I can ever unmake it
All that time that I spent in the basement
Puffin' on a piff while you was patiently awaitin'
All alone, that was foul, that was flagrant
But you still loved me, you the one who taught me patience
Not the best dad but the best rapper in your eyes
Idolize, damn, shoulda been I, I
Apologize for my acts, a real man admits his wrongs
Moves on and so on to the next step
Yeah, let's take it day by day
And live every day just like a new day, what you say?
[Chorus: Lil Skies & Skies]
Father-Son talk, let's talk about the love
Let's talk about the hate, let's talk about the drugs (Yeah!)
Matter fact, son, let's talk about the good
The bad, the ugly, the phony, we should
Better yet, dad, let's talk about the pain
The gain, the rain, the strength, we should
Matter fact, dad, let's talk about the girls
The drama, the money, the power, the world
[Verse 3: Lil Skies & Skies]
Now fast forward, now we livin' good
Things have turned out great, how they really, really should
I could talk about the negatives but it's a new day
Let's talk about the positives, dad, what would you say?
I would say it's a very big blessin' for me to be a
Part of your life for all of your life, I
Can envision all the futuristic times
That we'll spend vacatin' while we mendin' our relationship
Onto a new chapter, new page in the book
Read the fine print and take a second look
Matter fact, son, let's talk about this thing called
Sextin' and textin', you ever send a message?
(Of course, dad) Well, I hope you are protected
You already know there's no second guessin'
That's good, son, man, this talk was impressive
For sure, dad, and I hope they get the message
[Chorus: Lil Skies & Skies]
Father-Son talk, let's talk about the love
Let's talk about the hate, let's talk about the drugs (Yeah!)
Matter fact, son, let's talk about the good
The bad, the ugly, the phony, we should
Better yet, dad, let's talk about the pain
The gain, the rain, the strength, we should
Matter fact, dad, let's talk about the girls
The drama, the money, the power, the world
