Long Live

Think twice 'fore you cross paths Balance life with your friends Great advice from a sage man Who I most often do call 'dad' Workaholic, them years passed Now you're sixty hair gettin' ash Never jumped ship, stayed back Stayed OG no eye patch I'm a lucky lad, fun fact Never really was a spoiled brat Got a dad, raised me like the wild cat Hold a lotta pride from his sons' acts Sisters really like a ice pack Passin' dudes cold who got wolf fangs Wearin' fleece coats tryna pose Sheep camos but we see your dog tracks Better brother, none I could pray for Yeah but back in the day it was bro wars And you turned to the man your generation's lucky to have I told you that a while before Goody goody, way before the gummy bears Your HBD, day before my life premiered Such a bully, fighting you my biggest fears I was weakened cause you're older seven years Now we homies fittin' in each others' peers You get lonely when I'm at my school career I'm the only one at home an engineer Mommy told me "focus Izzi get prepared Daddy's company isn't gonna run itself I don't want me strangers handling our wealth I know school is tough and music is your strength When you get saggy God'll be your belt" So I'm holdin' on him like a salsa dance Abba father finna source his plans Biological dad I love you and you are responsible For everything I just said Yeah you were strict on us We didn't know that was the best bonus To pay our tuition you risked loans Imma get and be greater than dem diplomas In that regard I remain in focus I wouldn't waste your pleasant lifted odours Long live the legacy you showed us Since you raised a god this' my ode to Oden
