[Intro]
(Tony Mike)
Yo all my life I heard I can't be sh**, I won't ever amount to sh**, I won't ever have sh**. By my aunt, my family, my friends, my counclers at f**ing school
[ Hook ]
(? )
Look at me now, you said I couldn't do it
I was all the way down, but I pulled myself through it
Look at me now
Don't let people tell you what you can and can't do
Whoa!
Look at me now
[ Verse 1 ]
( Tony Mike )
Now here we go, I'm in that lyrical mode
It's chaos while I'm writing, but your hearing my flow
But on a serious note, got to get this sh** off the ground
I'ma be a daddy now, I'm finally happy now
I finally have a purpose, but at the same time I'm nervous
Fast food, no cash, busting a** at work and
Thinking of going back to when it's sacks I'm serving
But these tracks I murder like I blast the burner
I been asking for God to change me, and now it's happening
I've been having so much stress, not at all relaxing
This feeling is a feeling I never thought I could imagine
After 2005,I never thought I could be happy
On the verge of suicide, it seemed I lost all hope
" The Suicidal King " was to be my suicide note
A few of my folks, they hate me now
They thought I'd tap out, but...

[ Verse 2]
( Tony Mike )
I she'd tears to this song, I can't wait for you to hear it
I swear to God when I have a girl, her name will be ' Lyric '
I got a new addition, a new addiction comes with it
Kiss my baby momma's belly, get excited when you're kicking
And now I got a kid, all these b**hes act different
Like my kid isn't gonna come before p**y or friendships?
And you can hate on me, that's the way it was made to be
Not even my b**h comes before my seed
Word to mother, word to father
Word to God, on the life of my son or daughter
God comes first, my kid comes second
Then my b**h and the rest of my family
Then my fans, f** everyone else
I'll even make a clone and say, " f** myself "
A few of my folks, they hate me now
They thought I'd tap out, but. ..

[ Verse 2 ]
( Tony Mike )
There's a lot to teach you, a lot more to show you
Like why there's people in my life not allowed to know you
I doubt your granddad will meet you, not 'cuz I don't like him
I've been trying to get him to be a part of my life, good luck trying
Your Great Aunt Terri and your Aunt Angela
They don't ever call to talk to me, they don't need to see you
And your mom turned a lot against me, but I just let em hate
I would say they can't see you, but I know she'll let em anyway
All i want's the best for you, I'm teaching you to survive
I hope the mistakes I've made will keep you alive
I can't wait for your laughter, your crawling, your walking
I can't wait to hear " dada ", like, " oh damn, you're talking!"
Can't wait for your first day of school or graduation
Can't wait for you to tell me your gonna have a baby
And people's gonna hate us then like they hate us now
That's when I want to hear you say...
