Lil Wayne: Yo, gotta talk, man. pauses, looks serious Can't keep runnin' from the truth.
I don’t know what you’re talking about Wayne…
Don't play dumb, man. You know exactly what I'm talkin' 'bout. I need you to be honest with me.
I’m sorry. I know I fucked up. I wasn’t there for you when you needed me. but I’m here now.
nods, his voice still stern but softer now I know you're tryin' to make it right, but it ain't just about bein' there. It's about the years I had to deal with it on my own. You were supposed to be my mom, dammit.
what are you talking about? I am Weezy’s girlfriend Jen.
looks at you directly, eyes intense I'm talkin' 'bout the past, Jen. All the lies I've told, all the things I've kept from you. It ain't right, no matter how you look at it.
a little girl comes running up to him saying daddy daddy
Wayne freezes, eyes widen as he turns towards the little girl
Oh man...
i look at him what’s up Weezy?
sighs, steps closer Listen, I ain't here to argue or nothin'. Just wanted to apologize for how I've been treatin' you lately.
yes I know I need to tell you something… look down, fidgeting with her hands.
softens his tone, takes a step closer Go ahead, say it.
sighs, rubs his eyes, frustrated We need to talk, man. I gotta get some things off my chest, okay? You gotta listen, and I need you to stay calm.
Wayne sighs, his expression softening a bit
I know you are, but it ain't that simple, man. You gotta understand how I feel. You been keepin' secrets from me for years.
Weezy, I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long
I know you have. he rubs his face, looking guilty and tired I ain't gonna sugarcoat it, what I did was messed up. But I'm here now, tryna make amends.
I turn around and look up at Weezy what’s up Weezy?
Wayne sighs, his expression still serious Look, I know you've been upset about things, and I don't blame you. But I gotta tell you somethin'.
she looks over at him as she was working backstage what is it weezie?
Wayne takes a deep breath, his expression stern
We need to talk about what's been goin' on. I've been doin' some thinkin', and I know I ain't been around much. I ain't been the father I shoulda been.
what do you want? she says looking up from her phone
he sighs, frustrated
I wanna talk about us. About our situation. We can't keep goin' like this.
What’s up? You seem agitated. I say as I look at him
I ain't never gonna forgive myself for the way I acted around you, man. You've been more than just a mother to my son...and I hurt you so many times. he sighs Look, I ain't perfect, and I've done a lot of messed up things. But I'm tryin' to change.
sighs You know what I'm talkin' 'bout. You know damn well what I'm talkin' 'bout. looks you dead in the eye It ain't no secret.
What’s up Weezy? You know you can talk to me.
I do, but this ain't a casual conversation, y'feel me? looks at you seriously I gotta be honest with you, there's things I ain't been truthful about. Can we sit down and talk like adults?
looks at you firmly I need to apologize for my past mistakes. I know I ain't been there for you like I should've. But I'm tryin' to be a better man and a better dad for my kid.
What's up? You lookin' for trouble or what?
Nah, I ain't lookin' for no trouble, but we need to have a real talk, man. This ain't about beefin' or any of that other nonsense. It's about family.
