Live for Me |
Uh, yeah |
Live for me |
Live for me |
For my kids lil nigga |
Woo, Yeah |
I need you to live for me, woo |
Yeah, you don’t understand right now |
I lost my Pops same age that you are right now |
I learned a lesson, keep going when the odds are down |
And when it’s dark, you can see the stars shine down |
I wanna protect you, you don’t know the pain I felt |
I was trapped, spent years in a cage, no help |
Tryna keep you out the devil’s hands |
Don’t want you livin' like me, you be a better man |
And the plan is for me to help you get ahead |
Strong minded black male, that’s how you advance |
And I know in your mind, I be hard at times |
You gotta know, in the streets ain’t where your hearts defined |
It’s the spirit you possess that’ll help you grow |
I’m sorry that me and your mom’s can’t be that close |
Just to see you live, I’d give up my soul |
Gotta stay strong in the event that I go |
Need you to live for me |
Was fine till I think about it, but now it’s intact |
Sorry I had to live like that |
Was there I had to give right back |
I’m gonna make a way, someday |
And I got yo back |
How to make it? |
I’ll teach you that |
You need me and I need you back |
Just keep me in your heart always |
Took time to realize |
Wasn’t ready, busy womanizing |
Another child wasn’t part of my plan, see |
And I hate myself for wishing she’d swallowed that plan B, yuh |
I’ve done it, it looks just like me |
I pray she doesn’t fall for a man that’s like me, no |
Tryna turn into a better father |
But my demons is pullin' it’s gettin' harder |
So I wrote this letter for you in case I wasn’t with you |
Times that you were cryin', wasn’t there to hold the tissue |
Just know I love you, don’t be scared to dream |
Remember that a man only respects a queen |
And I’m sorry me and mom’s can’t be that close |
But it’s still my job to keep you off the post |
Just to see you live, I’d give up my soul |
Stay strong in the event that I go |
I need you to live for me |
Was fine till I think about it, but now it’s intact |
Sorry I had to live like that |
Was there I had to give right back |
I’m gonna make a way, someday |
And I got yo back |
How to make it? |
I’ll teach you that |
You need me and I need you back |
Just keep me in your heart always |
Sins of thy father |
Pray my kids don’t fall victim to my Karma |
Up nights just tryna feed her my gold heart, uh |
Black flowers what’d they minds, they grow sharper (preach) |
They will never live like I used to |
Or feel the pain and the hunger I was used to |
Cold nights hot days that was usual |
Just to see a dead body that’s not unusual |
Yeah, keep my son away from street corners |
Keep my daughter safe, don’t let them creeps sweet talk her |
I got many flaws, living with regrets |
A ghetto king tryna raise my prince and princess |
Was fine till I think about it, but now it’s intact |
Sorry I had to live like that |
Was there I had to give right back |
I’m gonna make a way, someday |
And I got yo back |
How to make it? |
I’ll teach you that |
You need me and I need you back |
Just keep me in your heart always |
