Was It Worth It |
| On birthdays and Christmas I used to have you on my wishlist |
| Held my son the first time, looked him in his eye |
| And thought to myself, what kind of fool would ever miss this |
| I ain’t ask for you to sleep with mom and make me |
| Plus I’m your blood, why would you leave, what was so important |
| They told you smash broads, roll up the weed |
| I guess that buzz got you high enough to float over me |
| I hope that every dollar that you made, every girl that you slave |
| When you close your eyes at night, I hope you say it’s all worth it |
| Every graduation, birthday, game that you missed |
| I hope what you got instead make you feel it’s all worth it |
| Being a father’s expensive and its cost you may ignore |
| Just know me and your grandson is paying for it |
| Can’t ask myself what would dad do in hard times |
| 'Cus that means he’ll be writing one of these rhymes |
| All these hearts that you broke, all these lies that you told |
| All this pain that you own, years all alone |
| Nights away from home, tell me |
| I hope it was worth it, was it worth it |
| Tell me was worth it, tell me was it really worth it |
| Listen, a lot of rap dudes never had a daddy |
| That’s why we want approval from Nas like he family |
| But, it ain’t just Jermaine, it’s Dre to The Game |
| To the Birdman saying that he’s the father of Wayne, man |
| What happened to us better yet what didn’t happen |
| No happy family 'cus daddy left me |
| Deep in this Valley, of the Shadow of Death |
| I’m felling the breath of a preditor on my neck |
| Ate me alive while daddy was getting high |
| Trying to chase after something that I’m certain he’ll never find |
| When the whole time, he could have had my young mind |
| Somewhere along the line I guess he spent up all his time |
| Sent me this birthday card out of the blind, when I was nine |
| Inherited a bunch of pain and some empty memories |
| Wishing that he picked me up from elementary |
| I wish he could have seen me on my graduation |
| Taught me to raise the son, and told me congratulations |
| All these hearts that you broke, all these lies that you told |
| All this pain that you own, years all alone |
| Nights away from home, tell me |
| I hope it was worth it, was it worth it |
| Tell me was worth it, tell me was it really worth it |
