“The smallest moments can have the biggest impact on a child’s life. Take time to be a dad today.” That’s the campaign message of new public service advertisements (PSAs) launching today nationwide in recognition of Father’s Day. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, an estimated 24 million children (34%) in the U.S. live apart from their fathers. The PSA campaign is an effort between the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Administration for Children and Families, Office of Family Assistance and the Ad Council to show fathers the unique and irreplaceable role they play in their children’s lives.

[T.I talking]
Ay, lemme kick it to you right quick man,
Nawt on some gangsta shit man on some real shit
Anybody who been through the same thing im sure you feel the same way
[Hook]
Ohh (hey)
I’ve been travelin on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin find my way back home (back home)
But the old me’s dead and gone,
Dead and Gone,
And Ohh.. (hey)
I’ve been travelin on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin find my way back home (back home)
But the old me’s dead and gone,
Dead and Gone, dead and…
[Verse 1]
Every had one of them days wish you would have stayed home,
Run into a group of niggas who gettin their hate on,
You walk by - they get wrong,
You reply then shit get blown,
Way out of proportion way bad discussion,
Just you against them pick one then rush them,
Figure you get jumped here thats next,
They don’t wanna stop there now they bustin,
Now you gushin ambulance rushin,
You to the hospital with a bad concusion,
Plus you hit four times but it hit yo spine,
Paralyzed waist down and ya wheelchair bound,
Never mind that now you lucky to be alive,
Just thinkin it all started fussin wit three guys,
Nigga pride in the way but your pride is the way you can f**k
around get shot down anyday,
Niggas die everyday,
All little bullshit, dope money, dice games, for their hood shit,
Could this be cuz of hip-hop music,
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it,
Usually niggas don’t know what to do when they back against the wall,
So they just start shootin,
For red or for blue or for blow I guess,
From Bankhead at the old projects,
No more stress now I’m straight,
Now I get it now I take time to think before I make mistake just for my
family stake,
That part of me left yesterday
The harder me is strong today,
No regrets I’m blessed to say the old me dead and gon away,
[Hook]
Ohh (hey)
I’ve been travelin on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin find my way back home (back home)
But the old me’s dead and gone,

And Ohh.. (hey)
I’ve been travelin on this road too long (too long)
Just tryin find my way back home (back home)
But the old me’s dead and gone,
Dead and Gone, dead and…
[Verse 2]
I ain’t neva been scared I live through tragic,
Situations could been dead lookin back at it,
Most of that shit didn’t even have to happen,
But you think about it when you out there trappin’,
In the appartments hangin’, smokin and rappin,
Niggas start shit next thing we know we cappin,
Get locked up then didn’t even get mad,
Now I think about that what a life I had,
Most of that shit look back just laugh,
Some shit still look back get sad,
Thinkin my home boy still be around had I not hit the nigga in the mouth that time,
I won that fight I lost that war,
I could still see my nigga walkin out that door,
Who would of thought I’d never see Philant no more,
Got enough dead homies I don’t want no more,
Cuz a nigga his jump cost me more,
I’d a took that ass whoppin out for sure,
Now think before I risk my life,
Take them chances to get my stripes,
A nigga put his hands on me alright,
Otherwise stand there talk shit all night,
Cuz I hit you and you sue me,
I shoot you get locked up poor me,
No more stress now I’m straight,
Now I get it now I take time to think before I make mistake just for my
family stake,
That part of me left yesterday
The harder me is strong today,
No regrets I’m blessed to say the old me dead and gon away,
