Values 2

Just got off the phone with my momma Talkin' bout hoes and the drama Talkin' bout bros in the commas Talkin' bout clothes and designer Hate that I load her with these problems She said shut up boy that's what I'm here for You barely speak to me these days You need to open up a little more I said it's okay But you know momma it's hard to say no Ma I've been dealin' with some personal things And it's hard to let go First off I don't even know which road to take I like my lil' 9 to 5 but I'm an artist man I was born to paint I was born to create for real And I like the way that you pray for me when I'm down bad I got new girls that I want your opinion on no offense to I got this new girl that got a kid when I don't know how to be no dad Cause I ain't had no dad A lot of sudden changes I had to adjust fast Me and Luther learnin' each other and of course we clash But you know it's all respect I never seen him lay a hand on you and he came home every night So to me that's a big flex for real All respect man Love you for real But what I'm talkin' bout is father time That one on one that heart to heart to ask you how you are sometimes The type of shit that's hard to find Forgive my language it's just hard sometimes I still make solo trips to the mall sometimes I still take the long way home and cruise when I get off at 9 Get in my moods when I don't wanna speak at all sometimes But I know it doesn't hurt to call sometimes I know I know I know I still got issues that I'm workin' on Places I'm still searchin' on Need to drown some thoughts out but it's problems I should surface on I just say them here cause we so much alike we don't get along Somebody gon' hear this song and send it to you So you can call me and ask me what you did wrong But truth be told nothing you the truest one When you come through it's done right or wrong You stand on it and refuse to run I like that for real But you know me I'm still Stewart's son It's hard to tell me somethin And all those scriptures that you taught me I still remember some Some of my favorites was Exodus 14:14 and Psalms 1 Grew up the church kid I used to hate how you sheltered me from things But as I grew up I see it was worth it So much been goin' on We lost Damien, we lost Lamar, we lost Nard And on and on and on and on Feel this You gotta feel this I hear you son I do, I get it I've been there, I've walked that Been right where you are But you can't let nobody get in the way of your motivations You can't let nobody get in the way of your dreams You can't let anybody get in the way of your ambitions You gotta keep goin', you gotta keep pushin If you gotta look yourself in the mirror And talk to yourself and motivate yourself And say look, I gotta do what I gotta do I'ma keep pushin', I'ma keep grindin There's no way in the world I can stop here I got too much to live for I'm gon' die empty I'm not dyin' full I'ma give it all I got
