Backing the days
Here right now
Back in the days
Here right now
[VERSE 1:]
I grew up in the streets
I got no family tree
Guess you can say I'm a product of society
All I ever had was me
Since I was very young
I still remember holding my very first gun.
It was my daddy's piece
He was a G for real
I always think of him
When I'm gripping on the steal
Now he's gone
I moved on
Sanchas growing up
South side throwing up
Rap game blowing up
Who would have knew
Wishing daddy could see me now
He said go live a normal life
But I just don't know how
Stay banging all year
January to December
Just like the old man did
Far as I can remember
[CHORUS:]
Back in the days
Daddy was a gangsta
Out banging in the streets
He showed me how to be
Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl
Back in the days
Daddy was a gangsta
Out banging in the streets
He showed me how to be
Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl
[VERSE 2:]
When I was just a little girl
I remember clearly
My daddy said
You could be anything you want to be
I guess that meant a lot
Coming form my pops
He didn't even have a choice
About busting shots
Born into the gang life
Trying to survive
Any way any means any time you could die
So he was lining loco
Just trying to have some fun
Making illegal money always on the run
Then when he met mi Madre
At age 21
They had me
He picked me up and put down his gun
Tell you the honest truth
My moms was the shit
I think she was jealous
Over how me and my dad clicked
A daddy's girl
I looked up to him good or bad
He was the only role model that I really had
But then he got shot
My world feel apart
Took him away and they also took away my heart
[CHORUS:]
Back in the days
Daddy was a gangsta
Out banging in the streets
He showed me how to be
Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl
Back in the days
Daddy was a gangsta
Out banging in the streets
He showed me how to be
Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl
[VERSE 3:]
I'm older now
And I see how it is
I guess that ride or die jeans
Passes down to your kids
Cause when I hear stories bout
How g daddy was
Sounds like the dirt
Miss Sancha always does
Now that makes me feel good
It makes me proud
Cause to carry on his legacy
Is what I always vowed
Plus I want to see him
When it's my turn to go
Could be heaven could be hell
I don't know
What I do know is
[CHORUS:]
Back in the days
Daddy was a gangsta
Out banging in the streets

Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl

Out banging in the streets

Here right now
Aint nothing changed much
On how to fuck the world
