| I grew up without my father
|
| I grew up without my father, so i wrote this for my daughter
|
| Yea, I grew up without my father, so I wrote this for my daughter
|
| In hopes that one day she grow to be smarter
|
| Princess She-Mo give her the Tiara
|
| Make sure she don’t feel the pain and the horror
|
| Don’t wanna see tears in them damn eyes
|
| Cause' daddy got something for the bad guys
|
| Never too far, I'm always on standby
|
| Ready to ride and you gon' win by a landslide
|
| Flesh on my flesh blood on my blood
|
| You gon' have a good life i was drug through the mud
|
| I’m making deals just to pay the bills and get you a bike with the training
|
| wheels
|
| We gon' play for reals
|
| Slide down the slide
|
| Swing on the swing
|
| Ain’t no need to be scared, I'm the king of all scary things
|
| And Imma give you everything, teach everything
|
| When you need a nest, you gon' have the best set of wings
|
| The world’s not a place of peace
|
| You gon' see a lot of things that you hate to see, but
|
| They won’t take you away from me
|
| They can’t take you away from me
|
| Before they get they hands on you
|
| Imma take a sword to the neck
|
| Cause' your the little girl that I’ve sworn to protect
|
| And I don’t care if you make the cops spray weapons
|
| Or if it’s a school bully in the hallway testing
|
| I’m always present
|
| But you can do it by yo’self
|
| You just gotta apply yo’self
|
| And you ain’t gotta search far just to find yo’self
|
| But if you feel lost, i hope this rhyme can help
|
| Young Jaylin, right now you six months old
|
| You carry your weight, and stand on ten toes
|
| Ahead of the curve for your age and it shows
|
| So aim for your goals I’ll pave the brick road
|
| You can be a singer, athlete, actress
|
| But only if you master your craft and your practice
|
| Sky’s ain’t the limit there’s amasses of planets
|
| Anything that you image can happen
|
| The world’s not a place of peace
|
| You gon' see a lot of things that you hate to see, but
|
| They won’t take you away from me
|
| They can’t take you away from me
|
| We got our imperfections
|
| But we got time
|
| And we got each other
|
| Don’t need much to get by
|
| Don’t got no luxury
|
| Don’t got no money
|
| My best friend wrote that, i had to quote that
|
| I hope that make your brain an' your skull clap
|
| Understand we don’t always win
|
| But we only fail when we give up and give in
|
| Life is all about tragedy and triumph
|
| You lose to win, and you fall just to climb up
|
| We take L’s but we don’t leave em' behind us
|
| Cause' it reminds us what to do when the time comes
|
| For something to exist, the opposite is needed
|
| The light and the dark, the snake and the phoenix
|
| If you lose don’t be afraid to repeat it
|
| It means one day you gon' rain undefeated
|
| The world’s not a place of peace
|
| You gon' see a lot of things that you hate to see, but
|
| They won’t take you away from me
|
| They can’t take you away from me
|

|

|
| Take my word i swear it’s true
|
| Da-da gon' be there for you
|

|
| There’s nothing I’m scared to do
|

|
| There’s nothing I’m scared to do
|
