Papoose - The Golden Child lyrics

[Intro: Papoose] Yeah, yeah, uh This for my baby (baby baby) Golden Child (Golden Child) Ha-ha (ha-ha) [Verse 1: Papoose] It was love at first sight, when I met your mom I was open, wow! She the queen, I’m supposed to bow, pretty face with a potent smile We planned to have you back then but tragedy slowed us down ‘Cause she went away for a while when your dad had to hold it down I questioned God, like “Why is this happenin’?” You know it’s ’bout Everything that happen, happen for a reason, I know it now We argue what we gon’ name you, I feel that’s over now It don’t matter to me ’cause to me, your name is the Golden Child! The love we share, they ain’t build it, that’s why they can’t destroy it Truthfully, I understand the ploy, this is something they can’t avoid I sing to yo’ mama stomach, she say I am annoying “Won’t you shut up and just go to sleep, I don’t want to hear it, boy!” She always say I’m annoyin’, but she just paranoid She afraid I’mma spoil you, you loud and she hate to hear the noise The world is yours and I promise don’t gotta share your toys I won’t let you cry unless the tears you cryin’ are tears of joy! [Hook: Papoose & *Angelica Villa*] I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me! *I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me!* [Verse 2: Remy Ma] They say first comes love and then comes marriage Never mentioned the devastation I had in the miscarriage I was torn up, broken down, felt less than a woman But all that pain was erased when the doctor said you was comin’! Me and daddy were so happy, this is all we ever wanted So protective of your presence, I was scared to show my stomach The rumors [?] said pregnancy’s supposed to change you My belly, your dad would rub it, he was hatin’ on my angles ‘Cause the pictures had it down pat, from the front it looked all flat From the side you was pokin’ but never could I be called that Still fit all my clothes and you had me glowin’ I was overjoyed, ain’t care what I was havin’, ’cause girl or boy I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat Instantly knew me you and daddy would never part, please! All my ladies, listen up Never think of givin’ up Doc said that we couldn’t, but look what God has given us! [Hook: Papoose & *Angelica Villa*] I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me! *I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me!* [Verse 3: Papoose] Take you to school every day, before you eat, say your grace You can achieve anything; marathon, not a race Tell the truth, never lie, the limit is in the sky When you talk to a person, make sure you look in they eye I’m sorry the world we live in is not a place much better Sorry that you was born into the Donald Trump era Thankful that I’m a King, thankful your mom is a Queen You was born under marriage, black love is supreme Always respect your elders, say “thank you” and “please” Your grandmother gon’ make you some macaroni and cheese I tatted you on my arm, some people say it ain’t smart I put you on my left arm ’cause that’s mo’ close to your heart I’m excited to meet you, my eyes excited to see you Your mom got milk in her breasts, she excited to feed you I would never mislead you, misguide or deceive you My fists are here to protect you, my mind excited to teach you! [Hook: Papoose & *Angelica Villa*] I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me! *I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I cannot wait to strap you down in that car seat I heard your heartbeat I heard your heartbeat I can’t wait to make your bottle; I’m you, you are me!*
