Papa Can You Hear Me? lyrics

D A P's to the Y

Nah Nah Frickin'

And this is for my DAD!!

Uncle B

Yeah, I don't mean to bore, you know my name

Chill for a second, just hear my pain

If you've lost any loved ones you'll feel what I'm saying

Hope its peacful down there where they layin

When someone you loved, who brought you up from the start

Built you up and made you into who you are

Who always believed, saying that you'll be a star

Then all of a sudden they just passed

Dash the reaper from ontop of ma wardrobe

Slap den crack, from side of the mouth

Put me on stage infront of a crowd

Now we're picking up awards whle he's under the ground

My Daddy this and my Daddy that

Well I found mine dead on a couch in ma flat

So much to say, I wish I coulda said bye

The only time I'll talk to him is when I look into the sky

[Faze:] YEAH!!

[CHORUS:]

All I've got is these pictures of ya

And your light blue crack down Nokia

Things in my house still smell of ya

All I wanna say is:

Papa if you can hear me...!!

I regret every bad thing that I saaaid

Please forgive me if you hear me...

Never knew how much I loved ya till you was dead...!!

Papa if you can hear me...

[Dappy:] If only youuu, knew what you went and done

Please forgive me if you hear me...

[Dappy:] See all I know is, I'm proud to be your Son

Papa if you can hear me...

[Faze:]

We're getting away in the world, it's how I'm flowing with N-Dubz

If it wasn't for you B there wouldn't be N-Dubz

Kept us together never knowing we'd end up

Moving onto Mobo's pushing the bench up

You pushed and pushed when no-one wanted to believe

But back then it was all a dream

It's like you sacrificed your life

For the love of success and a life full of stress

I'm vexed cuz

First they love you, second they hate you

They talked about you, when they tried to play you

Behind your back they were tryna betray you

But B, I never had a chance to repay you

For the things you done for me

Put me on the right path, kept me from steering left

Yeah we had a right laugh

But I be feeling like Bruce Willis, each and everyday I really wanna Die Hard

[CHORUS:]

All I've got is these pictures of ya

And your light blue crack down Nokia

Things in my house still smell of ya

All I wanna say is:

Papa if you can hear me...!!

I regret every bad thing that I saaaid

Please forgive me if you hear me...!!

Never knew how much I loved ya till you was dead...!!

[Tulisa:] If only youuu

[Dappy:] Papa if you can hear me...!!

[Dappy:] If only youuu, knew what you went and done

[Tulisa:] Please forgive me if you hear me...!!

[Dappy:] Please forgive me if you hear me...!!

[Dappy:] See all I know is, I'm proud to be your Son

Papa if you can hear me...!!

Tulisa: I never ever hear what you said

The fights and the laughter

Success and disasters, No!

But nothing seems clearer..

Than the day you were gone..

You said, despite all the stress

You haveta fight to the death

Coz little girl your a star

Don't let em kill who you are....

You see you gave me a chance

And now look where I am

You are the reason, I can't wait to see you again...

[CHORUS:]

All I've got is these pictures of ya

And your light blue crack down Nokia

Things in my house still smell of ya

All I wanna say is:

Papa if you can hear me...!!

I regret every bad thing that I saaaid

Please forgive me if you hear me...!!

Never knew how much I loved ya till you was dead...!!

[Tulisa:] If only youuu

[Dappy:] Papa if you can hear me...!!

[Dappy:] If only youuu, knew what you went and done

[Dappy:] Please forgive me if you hear me...!!

[Tulisa:] See all I know is, I'm proud to be your Son

[Dappy:] See all I know is, I'm proud to be your Son

Papa if you can hear me...!!

[All doing backing vocals on the last chorus]

N-Dubz, Tealease, I haveta say I dropped a tear when I done this shhh..

Like they always say, you dunno what you got till you lose it
