Starlito - SMILE lyrics

[Intro] Well son, I'll tell you All the time I's been turning corners and sometimes going in the dark where there ain't been no light So boy, don't you turn back Don't you fall now [Chorus: Robin Raynelle] It's been awhile since I seen you smile Just want you to know I'm still proud Don't care how nobody else feels about you Slow down, I can't lose you You're all I got, you're my only child [Verse 1: Starlito] I kinda want a baby, really don't know why When I still drive my mama crazy Really there's no such thing as perfect timing without no patience Really need to be somebody patient, I ain't slept since graduation You don't know my situation Man I don't know what I'm facing and I hate it They say congratulations but they really mad I made it I just don't hesitate, man they wasn't really aggravated And I know feelings don't matter but I been feeling madder lately You don't get it homie, I just don't wanna disappoint that lady At this point it's too late, they have my picture on front of the paper again And guess what, she forgave me again And then told me keep my distance from those who ain't really my friends [Chorus: Robin Raynelle] It's been awhile since I seen you smile Just want you to know I'm still proud Don't care how nobody else feels about you Slow down, I can't lose you You're all I got, you're my only child [Post-Chorus: Robin Raynelle] Never hesitate to call home No matter what you're going through 'cause nothing in all creation Can separate my love from you Even as the world tries to take you down Remember that you're special to me Remember you're my everything Remember when it was just you and me [Verse 2: Starlito] It's been a minute since I shed a tear You taught me to never fear John Madden, Michael Jordans, you bought me them every year Told me to be my own man, and you said it clear Life ain't been no crystal stair, I'm here through the consistent prayer Wish I wasn't so good at holding grudges, ma you know I love you Imagine how cold it'd make your heart to have you heat to go in public Granny think I'm a perfect angel, even though I'm thuggin' Face all on the news, ain't nothing changed Y'all answer when no one doesn't Don't know how you haven't given up on me, I forever owe you Since I don't know when we'll go I want to let you know Ever since I can remember, you been heroic I love you, gotta get better at showin' it ‘Cause lately I been stoic [Chorus: Robin Raynelle] It's been awhile since I seen you smile Just want you to know I'm still proud Don't care how nobody else feels about you Slow down, I can't lose you You're all I got, you're my only child It's been awhile since I seen you smile Just want you to know I'm still proud Don't care how nobody else feels about you Slow down, I can't lose you You're all I got, you're my only child [Outro: Robin Raynelle] I know it's been a while Ooh, and I don't care, yeah, oh yeah
