[Interlude]
(Baby crying)
Hi, boy
Hi
Hi, boy
Hi

Its daddy
[Intro]
You may not understand
What I'm about to tell you right now
One day you will
[Verse 1]
Listen
My little man, my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
I can't explain the type of love your father has for you
You brought new purpose into my life
Your smile is magical
The first day I saw you
See I was taken back
Tryna measure my palm against your little hand
In the hospital bed you lay kicking
Made my mind life a better life to give you be my mission
Never walk away from you and your moms
I'm here to stay
I'm ain't tryna be like all them other boys who run away
Gotta be an example to you everything I preach
Coz you will follow my actions not only what I speak so
I'm just letting you know your daddy loves you
Reach for the stars ain't no obstacles above you
No matter what they say keep chasing your dreams
You my champion
In my eyes you always win
[Chorus]
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
[Verse 2]
I thank God that he changed my path
Because if he didn't I don't know if it be you I have
My biggest blessing
I can't, measure your worth
Over my own life it's you who comes first
Just know that everything I do is for your good
Only tryna raise like a good father should
I know I make mistakes
Fail from time to time
But deep inside my heart I just want to see you shine
Tryna shape you into a man of integrity
Never follow the crowd but treat women respectively
Let you know a real man is not afraid to cry
And feel pain for people who ain't the same as ya
And lastly I don't want you to see color
We are all the same
Made in his image we all brothers
This world is going I know
But you can lead them into the right path
So let your light glow
[Chorus]
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
My little man you my mini me
For you a better man is what I'm tryna be
[Interlude]
I just figured out
I let it ride out
Ain't got nothing to rhyme anymore
I'mma just talk from my heart
Right now is nothing more important to me like my family
Having my boy, having a son
Being a man, there is lots of responsibility that come with it
Now you gotta watch your actions
Gotta watch would you say
You start thinking
At the end of the day you just want to be a better person for your kid
You know what I'm saying
So, pretty much that's my state of mind right now you know
I just to be the best I can be for my son
I wanna see him winning in life
I know I'm not gonna be perfect
I know I'm not perfect
I will fail but like everything that I do is to see him win
This is to you Zeeke
I love you so much
No one can take away that love
Now I understand what it means to love a child
