Die For You Lyrics - Suit - Nelly

So yo, today your birthday? 

Yea 

You sure? 

Daddy! 

I don't think today your birthday 

Then what you called me for? 

Oh, I don't know I just called to see what you's doing 

What you turn today? Nineteen? 

No I am turning ten, Daddy 

Nah you turning what thirty-two 

Thirty-two, you thirty-two today

I love you Daddy 

I remember Feburary 27, 1994 

Tryin' to make it to the hospital through three inches of snow 

Something's goin' wrong I can tell but I dont know 

I got this feelin' in my gut this ain't how it supposed to go 

Three pounds, two ounces and two months premature 

Into the incubator, is she gonna make it? They ain't sure 

Automatically, I placed the blame on my health 

Hell I'm a father mayne, I placed the blame on myself 

Was it somethin' that I smoked, did I eat, or did I drink it? 

Or was it somethin' I was doin that I did or did not think it? 

Watchin' her breathe through a hose in her nose 

Whats this EKG machine, whats this shit on her toes? 

It's 94, I'm 85 so I'm spooked as can be 

I'm prayin' and I'm askin' why he do this to me? 

See, I used to hold you in the palm of my hand 

And just to see you pull through, shit I knew you'd pull through 

(You) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you) 

March the 2nd, 1999 

The year and the date I got my little mine 

I guess I felt how my father felt and his father felt 

And his father must have felt to see his self 

It's like a little me in the flesh 

He got my blood and my heart in his chest 

Needless to say man I love him to death 

Teach him if he disrespect me, I'm a love him till death 

Left to go outta town right after he was born 

Got a record deal, three months later daddy was gone 

Its like I'm tryin' to raise him over the phone 

He barely know my face when he see it but he know my tone 

I'm up at night like do he know who his daddy is 

I'm real close to sayin', "Fuck the showbiz!" 

But when I hear him call his daddy now 

And when I hear him tell his friends 

"I wanna be just like my daddy now" 

Hope he forgive me for the sacrifice 

So he can have a better life than I had 

(You) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you) 

Don't you know I'd die for you? 

I'd lay down my life for you 

(I would die for you)
