Why You Wanna Keep Me From My Baby

Lyrics

[Intro: Aaron Hall & Teddy Riley] My first son Isn't he beautiful? I'm not gonna let nothin' I mean nothin' come between me and him God, I thank you for my seed And for that, I'll raise him right, forever Representin' for the fathers that can't see they seeds Don't worry about it Trust it'll be alright, nah'mean? (Wanna see my baby) Ya feel me? (Yeah, yeah, yeah) Listen up [Verse 1: Aaron Hall] Seems like only yesterday when I first held my baby I remember just the feeling of joy Well, taken there in an instant I tried my best to fight against it Just to face the fact she don't want me around After ten long years, I refuse to believe How could this woman take my baby and run? Oh, no No matter what, I'm his father Have every right to encounter I wanna spend some time with my baby boy, you know So tell me [Chorus: Guy & Aaron Hall] Why you wanna keep me from my baby? (Why?) Sittin' here drivin' me crazy (Never done nothin' wrong) I never did nothin' wrong to my child (Oh, yeah) You say you wanna keep it straight business (Say you wanna keep it straight business) Tell me, girl, what is this? (What's wrong?) I know I did my half for my child (I gave you everything I had) [Verse 2: Aaron Hall & Guy] As I look into the mirror, so many times I would dream of Waking up and standing at your front door, oh, yeah Just as I was about to knock, something in me said, "Stop You need to walk away and it will work out" And I cried, I cried Lord knows I tried to be the bigger man Not let myself do something wrong The pain I feel to be prolonged And I'm still shocked, how could you be so cruel? If you were me, what would you do? Don't you think he has the right to find out That his daddy loves him too? [Chorus: Guy & Aaron Hall] Why you wanna keep me from my baby? (Why?) Sittin' here drivin' me crazy (Crazy) I never did nothin' wrong to my child (I've never done nothin' wrong to my child) You say you wanna keep it straight business (Say) Tell me, girl, what is this? (What is this?) I know I did my half for my child (I know) [Bridge: Aaron Hall] Why do this to me? What did I ever do to you? Now I don't care, I'm gonna be there I wanna know my child So tell me [Chorus: Guy & Aaron Hall] Why you wanna keep me from my baby? (Why? Why? Why? Why?) Sittin' here drivin' me crazy (Ooh) I never did nothin' wrong to my child (I never did nothin' wrong to my child) You say you wanna keep it straight business (Say-ay-ay) Tell me, girl, what is this? (What is this?) I know I did my half for my child (I know deep in my heart) Why you wanna keep me from my baby? (Why?) Sittin' here drivin' me crazy (You wanna make a grown man cry) I never did nothin' wrong to my child (I just wanna be with my baby boy) You say you wanna keep it straight business (Say-ay-ay-ay-ay) Tell me, girl, what is this? (What is this?) I know I did my half for my child (I know I did my half for my child) [Outro: Aaron Hall] Yo, son, I just want you to know That I don't care what's goin' on in your mother's personal life All I care about is you, and I love you And I will love you 'til the day I die And just remember one thing, I'm your father
