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 $#&@ 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 $#&@ 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 %#@!

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 $#&@ 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 $#&@ 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
He showed me how to be
Here right now
Aint nothing changed much

On how to $#&@ 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 $#&@ the world
Cause I'm daddy's little girl
