Låttexter: JT Money. Father to Son.
What up G'yea
Father to son, know what it is?
What up son, how you feelin'? It won't be long before
I return in God's willin', but in the mean time
Do everything grandma tell ya follow her words
And I promise you they won't fail ya, just be strong
And take care of your little sister, tell her that I love her
And that daddy miss her you know I love you two
Just keep doin' good in school and remember bein' bad, boy
Don't make you cool might make a fool of yourself
Or you'll end up like me incarcerated and I know you
Will be S and B, we should be free, my son, you know
I wouldn't lie to you so make the garden, and these hoes
Don't apply to you, ya heard me boy? You gotta dedicate
Your life to God 'cause he's the one who blessed you
From the start and made you smart, I know you smart
That's why I write you this type of letter but I shouldn't worry
Too much because we raised you better, me and my momma
And I know that you gonna represent and thank you for the letters
And the pensions that you sent you made me happy
I was blessed with you when I was young and we gonna grow up
Together, father and son, father and son
Nobody separate us that's a fact, I'm never goin' back to the projects
The black man just stay largest down in the hoosy-a-way
It hurt my heart to think that you could end up that way, so I pray
It hurts me father, seein' your mind can falter
We must be faltered, 'cause we pray, here it goes
When I get out it's gonna be us, see? Me, you, and G'jay and Jess
Outta the family at DZ or wherever else y'all wanna go
I promise y'all, they won't separate us no more, not in this life time
Ya know y'all mean the world to me, and nothin' more precious
Than my boys and girl to me, not even me, so when your wrong
I'm correctin' you 'cause if I don't, it's as good as neglectin' you
Now this the truth, see I only want what's best for you
And if there's somethin' you can't do, I won't think less of you
Just try your best, I can see you got my ways in you
But I don't want you goin' through the same things I went through
See I was wild, even when I didn't have to be
That's why you always see them people comin' after me
But not no more, you see this change here had to come
I couldn't pasursize livin' down to my son, not to my son
Nobody separate us that's a fact, I'm never goin' back to the projects
The black man just stay largest down in the hoosy-a-way
It hurt my heart to think that you could end up that way, so I pray
Nobody separate us that's a fact, I'm never goin' back to the projects
The black man just stay largest down in the hoosy-a-way
It hurt my heart to think that you could end up that way, so I pray
It hurts me father, seein' your mind can falter
We must be faltered 'cause we pray, here it goes
It hurts me father, seein' your mind can falter
We must be faltered, 'cause we pray, here it goes
Boy, I just love spendin' time with you
When you get older, I might even bust rhymes with you
If you want to you know, you always make me proud of you
No matter what the situation I'll go out with you
But I don't want you, to think that goin' to jail's cool
Just 'cause I didn't, boy you still gotta finish school
Don't be no fool see I went back and got mine
So if there's somethin' I wanna do, they can't stop mine
You know what I'm talkin' about, the people who make up excuses
Besides entertainment, labor sports, they think we're useless
But see the truth is in the good and when they puttin', whip on ya ass
When you get that money fast, you spend that money fast, boy
Everything you think you wanna do, I finally done it
See when I'm gone, everything I own, you gonna want it
And if you decide to settle down with a woman, make sure ya know her
It's cool to love someone but don't be a sucker for her
Nobody separate us that's a fact, I'm never goin' back to the projects
The black man just stay largest down in the hoosy-a-way
It hurt my heart to think that you could end up that way, so I pray
Nobody separate us that's a fact, I'm never goin' back to the projects
