Yeah
It's your boy Young Ty
Eyes closed, Lord, take me away
'Cause the feeling that I'm feeling today should last forever
Back then, I didn't care about much
Now I use common wisdom to heal my crutch
I see pain, but emotionally, I'm numb
So I stay on beat like my heart's the drum
No chain, no whips, no slavery
This is the life mama said God gave me
Now I'm shining 'cause I'm rhyming on the daily
And I just found out my girl having my baby
I'm the father, I'm the maker
She deserves the best, where's the throne? I take her
Thank you, ma, you showed me how to be a man
And thanks, dad, 'cause you showed me a better plan
In the land of the living and dead
Before I die, I'ma live 'til I'm dead, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Just hear me out real quick, haha
In a world where there's no single mothers
And people give a hand just to sacrifice for others
No drugs, no guns, no violence
No sirens, peace and quiet
No raping, no form of adultery
This is real rap, but most call it poetry
Get the picture? I'm feeling like Dr. King
And it seem I'm the one who could see the dream
Am I dreaming? I wash away my thoughts
Shampoo my mind just to wash away my thoughts
They still sparkle in the midst of the fog
So I leap to a log just to balance with the frog
Then I leap through another path
Katrina told me there's no point for me to rent a raft
I dream back about the lost and forgiven
That's why I thank God I'm living how I'm living, I'm winning
I told you, you should listen, haha
But on a serious note
Hear me out
I wanna shout out to you and yours if you experienced a loss
I wanna give a rest in peace to my grandma Ellen White Bett Bluford
And my aunt Maggie Billingsley
And to my uncle Hakeem, keep your head up
You'll get out one day, yeah
It's your boy Young Ty
