Tryna let you know I care
But it ain't getting through
You say life's not fair
But it's cuz what you do
Truth be told the truth's old
And what I'm saying ain't new
But you ignore it like a fool
Plant bad seeds get bad fruit
I guess what makes me mad is you know what to do
I'm trying not to nag I just want what's best for you
You gon' say I'm not your dad and yes that is true
But one thing we both know is I care for you
Though it feels
Like I'm not getting through
I still care
Even if you don't care for you
Though it feels
Like I'm not getting through
I still care
Even if you don't care for you
You want attention
But you don't want advice
You don't listen cuz you already know what's right
You cut corners cuz you think you can get by
I love you but you frustrate me all the time
I guess what makes me mad is you know what to do
I'm trying not to nag I just want what's best for you
You gon' say I'm not your dad
And yes that is true
But one thing we both know
Is I care for you
Though it feels
Like I'm not getting through
I still care
Even if you don't care for you
Though it feels
Like I'm not getting through
I still care
Even if you don't care for you
