Chorus, Gemstar:
I made a promise to my momma that I would not brake
I told her I would never follow, and I'd lead my way
This world, we're in it, so cold
But I will lead my way
Verse 1,Gemstar:
I'm now a man, and I'm standing on my own two
She warned me bout' the trials and tribulations I'd go through
Without my momma, don't know how I'd ever function
Cause she got to me with comfort, evertime when I was grumpy, get up
Cause failing in my house, could never be an option
Be a man just like your dad, and get your as up of the couch, kid
If you don't go to college, you working to get the dollars
If you don't work for dollars, you only mooshing of for hours
Point blink, ya'll, that was the way I was raised
Now I'd become a man, why the hell would I change
We all make mistakes, and we all hit that fase
Just watin' till' you grown, it's a whole different stage, yeah
The foundor, righ, I swear that my kids won't
I'm leadin' by a jump, I'll be damned if they live broke
And this I promised my momma from day one
That I'd always be a leader, and that follow will chase us
I made a promise to my momma that I would not brake
I told her I would never follow, and I'd lead my way
This world, we're in it, so cold
But I will lead my way
Verse 2, Techniqe:
My momma used to say, don't let em' brake you down, my son//
Cause honestly it's only you, who know if you can make it, one//
Little step backwards doesn't make you to a bad person//
And if they hate on you, you maybe feel it's getting worse then//
Me raising you, me and daddy wasn't there that much//
And I know you got hurt, and we didn't kept that much in touch//
When you moved out, but I love you, lead your own way//
Cause it's only you who can decide, so what do you say//
I say thank you very much, cause if it wasn't for you//
Raising me this bad, I wouldn't find the music, in the blue//
And it's like glue, but what can you do//
When every f**ing dude, only screw around with you//
And you don't have a f**ing clue//
But I found something strange in the hate, that I could use//
Cause I lead my way, I chose to make some f**ing hated-juice//
I do what I want to do, and nothing can stop me now//
Mom told me to lead my way, and I am gonna make her proud//
I made a promise to my momma that I would not brake
I told her I would never follow, and I'd lead my way
This world, we're in it, so cold
But I will lead my way
