I wanna tell you every day I love you so much
I hope your life ain't tough as you grow up
Seen a lotta pain young, but you know what?
We made a lotta mistakes, we were so dumb
If you can learn from our past and you can stay safe
But I'm sure you'll see bad, it's such a rough place
As I'm holdin' your hand it makes my heart break
I guess I can't understand why people gotta hate
But brush em off, stay positive and move on
Live your life to the fullest because it isn't long
If they say you can't do it, they foolish, prove em wrong
It might get hard sometimes but baby stay strong
No matter how bad it seems you gotta follow your dreams
Keep hope in your heart, there's nothin' you can't achieve
It's so simple to start, you just gotta believe
Happiness is never too far up out of your reach
Baby, hope you live your life to the fullest, follow your dreams
Never let em get you down no matter how bad it seems
Do your best, don't you ever quit
Cuz you've got one life to live
My little niece, my only wish is you find peace
And live your life to the fullest before your time cease
Life is hard but beautiful once your eyes see
Nothin' is ever too far up outta your mind's reach
But believe me, nothin' is ever easy
Love is so blind and people can be so sleazy
You're gonna learn hard lessons, and you gon' fall down
You're gonna see a lotta hate cuz it's all around
I had to walk through the darkness 'till I seen the light
You might too, but everything is gon' be alright
Hold your hope, stay focused and try to keep your sight
On your goals and your dreams so you can leave in flight
And once you hit the sky, don't you ever come down
I see your shine every time that I come around
Don't you ever put anybody above you
And just remember that both of your uncles love you
Baby, hope you live your life to the fullest, follow your dreams
Never let em get you down no matter how bad it seems
Do your best, don't you ever quit
Cuz you've got one life to live
It's so amazin' how fast my kids are growin'
Little me's, little mini-me's, freeze the moment
One minute, they're in diapers, next minute they wanna fight you
Wit some attitude, I'm thinkin' like how can I get mad at you?
This world's cold as ever, hope you understand
When you're older and I'm not right there to hold your hand
You're gonna face a lotta hate and heart break
Just keep the faith and understand that god's great
Follow your dreams, don't let em tell ya you can't do it
I had to prove some haters wrong, I been through it
The good times, the bad times, but when it's crunch time you just gotta fight through it
My son say daddy this, daddy that
My daughter say buy me this, buy me that
I tell em that I got they back, they ain't gotta ask
But the most important thing, just remember that
Baby, hope you live your life to the fullest, follow your dreams
Never let em get you down no matter how bad it seems
Do your best, don't you ever quit
Cuz you've got one life to live
