about

For people that don't know Andrew Bogut was the Center of the 2015 Golden State Warriors during their first championship run. Now, he will never get the shine of Steph Curry or Klay Thompson; regardless, he was INSTRUMENTAL in their victory for the title that year. Sometimes we as fathers have to find our role. We aren't always going to be the lead scorer or the league MVP in the family unit. And in most cases our children lean on their mamas for support first and foremost. And in that aspect, they are the MVPs (We love yall moms!) Let's face it men, there is a special bond between mother and child that we as men can never replace. And that's okay, that isn't our role to play. We just need to find what that is for us, how we contribute to the team in different way, just like Bogut in 2015.

lyrics

Andrew Bogut

Verse:
(Let’s begin…)

Magandang kapalaran
People of good will
It’s been eons and eons
That I bent the mic to my will

Well you know…
Living that parent life
shifts capacity.

If I were to battle time
In a rap battle
Time would dismantle me…

It would be the Alpha,
And I would win bronze.
I could never overcome it
Like the hairline of Lerbon

I guess I’m a little ensconced
In this new life that I’m living,
As 10 year teacher;
Elevating Hundreds of yo children…

And then I come home and focus
To devote my life to one.
A cute little daughter
Who irradiates the sun

Who contains the widest of smiles
And the most fiercest tamtrums
A copy of my mother
You can go and ask my father

Sgt. Slaughter, always down to thug it out when needed
When she acting up a storm, resources get depleted
But baby mama, you always come through in the clutch
Who can calm our baby daughter with the soothing voice and touch

I can’t do that. I’m the role player,
I’m the Bogut.
You’re the Steph Curry of the team
The MVP and you know it.

To add on to the conversation…
Kailea’s destination is paved
Because of what her
Chosen family gave

It’s all love,
from the FMs to Carabao
From the students in the classroom,
To kasamas here and now

To Di Len in San Jose,
With all the cousins on the deck
To my dad and Mama Bye Bye,
Whenever it makes sense

Hook:
Looking in the mirror
Soaking in that picture
An older, wiser me
To add into the mixture

You mix it up with passion
Then you add it up w/ action
I’m a rapper and a daddy
No adding or subtraction


Verse Two:

Forget that Hypebeast man,
It’s time shop at Costco
Bulk package Pull Ups
And 20 pack of waffles

My daughter loves the details
Especially at the samples
But we’re never there on Sundays
It’s the crowds that she can’t handle


She loves her little space
But forgets to give you yours
When you go to take a shit,
She is bursting through the door

“Papa look what I can do!”
She just stands there and looks at me
I ask to give me privacy
And then she hands a book to me…

It’s “Everybody Poops”
A Minna Unchi story
I am halfway embarrassed
By the situational irony

All of this is live to me
She is that freakin funny
I’m dead with the exhaustion
She’s the energizer bunny

She goes on and on
Till the breaking of the dawn
Sometimes I take the L
Like that joint from Big Sean

But that the whole experience
To fail and fail some more
Till your moment when you’re worthy
On the comeback like you’re Thor
