- Meaning
[Intro]
Dear God
I know you got grandma and daddy right now
I just ask that y'all continue to bless me
Amen, uh-huh-uh-huh
[Chorus]
Dear Dennis (Dear Dennis)
It's your daughter (It's Shyniece)
Grandma just passed and I'm not home, I'm out in Florida (I'm out at work)
I'm breakin' down and I'm too far from Allen's daughter (Damn)
Can't even fuckin' grieve, I'm travelin' across the border
Now let it go, just breathe
I'm in pain right now
I can't show it while I'm fuckin' up the game right now (Right now)
I know you up in vein right now (Uh-huh)
But daddy, it'll make my day if you came back down
[Verse 1]
Just let me know if you ain't tryna be seen (Where you at?)
It's been a minute since you visited my dreams (Daddy, please)
Come on, daddy, you know how this shit could be
I ain't got no options, it's the closest way to hear you speak
Just left my lover, not interested for another (Nah)
Tell God I said, "Thank you for my mother"
I was attached to your mother, God knows I really love her
He the reasons for my blessings of my come up
[Pre-Chorus]
Can I ask you a question? I know your time is fatal
Is there a such thing as too loyal, too faithful?
I know you well spoken from the woman that had raised you
When you finally get the answer, let me know so I can thank you (Don't take too long)
[Chorus]
Dear Dennis (Dear Dennis)
It's your daughter (It's Shyniece)
Grandma just passed and I'm not home, I'm out in Florida (I'm out at work)
I'm breakin' down and I'm too far from Allen's daughter (Damn)
Can't even fuckin' grieve, I'm travelin' across the border (Uh-huh-uh-huh)
Now let it go, just breathe
I'm in pain right now
I can't show it while I'm fuckin' up the game right now (Right now)
I know you up in vein right now
But daddy, it'll make my day if you came back down
[Verse 2]
Disrespect you once, but never on purpose (Never on purpose)
If I hate to say that sometimes, you was a fucked up person (Facts)
My moms told me 'bout the episodes and the DV's (Uh-huh)
Then you turnt and got the nerve to put your hands on me?
But it's cool, I ain't gon' trip (Nah)
I know that you a addict, your emotions gon' flip (Huh)
I'm targetin' my blessings and I'm never gon' miss
I appreciate you for the ups and downs, that turned me to a honest bitch
[Pre-Chorus]
Can I ask you a question? I know your time is fatal
Is there a such thing as too loyal, too faithful?
I know you well spoken from the woman that had raised you (Yeah)
When you finally get the answer, let me know so I can thank you (Don't take too long)
[Chorus]
Dear Dennis (Dear Dennis)
It's your daughter (It's Shyniece)
Grandma just passed and I'm not home, I'm out in Florida (I'm out at work)
I'm breakin' down and I'm too far from Allen's daughter (Damn)
Can't even fuckin' grieve, I'm travelin' across the border
Now let it go, just breathe
I'm in pain right now
I can't show it while I'm fuckin' up the game right now (Right now)
I know you up in vein right now (I know)
But daddy, it'll make my day if you came back down (Huh)
