How To Fish |
| Yeah |
| Lil' different this time |
| Got my grandfather on my mind, you know |
| Alright, yeah |
| I took a silent moment in remembrance of him |
| An angler of the soul, a true fisherman of men |
| I wrote a couple words and I’mma send them on the winds |
| I sure that you and god are talking, skim them when you can |
| I realize you’re gone but I know you left your recipe |
| We’re living in your words and we’re basking in your legacy |
| Rest in peace for now we’ll see you later on |
| If nothing else, we’ll see you every time we play this song |
| I say to ya’ll he caught us all like the cod, life was hard |
| But he got it right with God, and now he on the other side |
| See him in my mother eyes |
| And if you will be together again when the sun arrives |
| Yes your past, you ran away, and thats too bad |
| I value what you taught, you’re the dad I never had |
| Some of your words, honestly, I left them in the past |
| No they didn’t all stick, but surely the message has |
| My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts |
| But he handed me a rod and he taught me how to fish |
| I’m a fisherman now |
| Your livin' through your grandson |
| I ain’t sitting around cuz that’ll leave he hamstrung |
| Its like I got a son that I gotta raise |
| So I gotta grind, I ain’t got it made |
| That means I gotta work, gotta keep a job and |
| Means I gotta grow gotta leap the frog and |
| That means I gotta pray, find a peace with god and |
| Fishin with discipline I gotta keep the rod man |
| You taught me well grandpop, I’m on the wagon now |
| And I won’t let this whole world come and drag me down |
| It gets hard but I ain’t really one for backing out |
| So I’mma live for now and come and join you after awhile |
| Yes you passed, you went away, and that’s too bad |
| I value what you taught, your the dad I never had |
| Some of your words, honestly, I left em in the past |
| No they didn’t all stick but surely the message has |
| My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts |
| But he handed me a rod and taught me how to fish |
| Yeah, well alright, ha |
| This is for my grandfather man |
| Just gonna let the beat breathe, ya know? |
| Yeah |
| How that sayin' go? |
| Give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day |
| Teach a man to fish, he’ll eat for a lifetime |
| Alright, out |
