Father Of 4 |
| It’s noisy off the set path |
| How can I make choices I’ve yet to discover we have? |
| Must need rehab |
| If you think you know me from the facets they show these folks to get money, |
| I gotta laugh |
| How funny it is you don’t realize the skill lies in knowing within the truth |
| there’s still lies |
| It’s called being civilized |
| But not to trivialize your belief in the semi-fictionalized |
| I am who you see |
| What you hear is part of me |
| But there’s so much more to me |
| So much more to be than just alive |
| A son, a brother, a husband, a father |
| But still can go even farther |
| Wish and will, can go harder |
| In that time, I went the hardest |
| More than this generic term «artist» |
| A reality smith, you love my craftsmanship |
| Because I craft some shit to make my people proud |
| And so I speak aloud, but not loud enough yet |
| Or as loud as I can get |
| They think I ain’t a threat |
| But all preconceived notions, I’ve arrived |
| To Offset |
| I was seventeen years old when I had you (When I had you) |
| Tryna find my soul when I had you (When I had you) |
| I was oh so broke when I had you (When I had you) |
| Locked up down the road when I had you (When I had you) |
| Jordan, sorry I wasn’t there for all your birthdays |
| I tried to hit, and I wasn’t rich, I had no workplace |
| My son, Kody, he three, rappin' already like me |
| Ridin' in the car, you don’t play me, then he gon' scream |
| Kalea, you my first, first daughter |
| I missed the first years of your life, I’m sorry |
| Tell the truth, I ain’t really know if I was your father |
| Tell the truth, I really don’t even know your mama |
| But I had to step up, my daddy had left us |
| Even though we gotta catch up, pray to God that he bless us |
| I’ma keep grindin' for my kids, never gon' let up |
| I’ma put the money up for y’all, I can’t be selfish |
| Had a baby as a kid, mama kicked me out |
| Had to go and hit a lick, tryna put food in your mouth |
| Then I got caught for the shit, in the pen when she pushed you out |
| Your mama tried to push me down, ain’t let me stay at the house |
| I was seventeen years old when I had you (When I had you) |
| Tryna find my soul when I had you (When I had you) |
| I was oh so broke when I had you (When I had you) |
| Locked up down the road when I had you (When I had you) |
| Jordan, sorry I wasn’t there for all your birthdays |
| I tried to hit, and I wasn’t rich, I had no workplace |
| My son Kody, he three, rappin' already like me |
| Ridin' in the car, you don’t play me, then he gon' scream |
| I’m a father of four, gotta get that cash, gold |
| Keep my past closed, 'member I ain’t had no dough |
| Spend a big bag on clothes, Gucci from the head to toes |
| Not two, not three, all four, that’s all they know |
| Kulture, remind me of my grandma, feel like she is closer |
| Gotta thank your mama, she hold me like holsters |
| Gotta protect her from the world, I can’t even post her |
| Ups and downs in this fame, roller coaster |
| If I don’t ball, then everything 'round me fall |
| I’m prayin' to God to watch my kids, that’s my all… |
| I was seventeen years old when I had you (When I had you) |
| Tryna find my soul when I had you (When I had you) |
| I was oh so broke when I had you (When I had you) |
| Locked up down the road when I had you (When I had you) |
| Jordan, sorry I wasn’t there for all your birthdays |
| I tried to hit, and I wasn’t rich, I had no workplace |
| My son Kody, he three, rappin' already like me |
| Ridin' in the car, you don’t play me, then he gon' scream |
