Navagnaes & ZENSEI - Avery lyrics

[Verse 1: navagnaes] When my brother's daughter, Avery, came to be, Sam came to me And said, "Look what we made, what he gave when he came in me!" I said, "That's what we prayed," then it came to me All these other plain Jane names sound the same to me She said, "That's why we named her 'Avery'" I said, "'Cause Nick is brave to be a dad again That's why her name rhymes with 'bravery'?" She said, "What did you say to me?" I said, "It's brave how he can slave to feed two kids That's also why her name rhymes with 'slavery'" She said, "C'est la vie" I said, "But not all of our parents we were raised by Are all that they claim to be" She said, "Nobody's perfect, we're not made to be Plus, they did all kinds of d** back in '83" I said, "Well you and Nick, that's the way to be" She said, "But he's away from me too much, that's not okay with me" I said, "Well is a baby free?" She said, "touche, I need a way to see that that's the only Way that he can pay for me" I said, "Pay for three! And be grateful he's just working every day Not in the Navy and away at sea" She said, "Crazy me I mean, that's the way I see it anyway The way I always saw it basically But I still tend to sway to be impatient" I said, "A.D.D.?" She said "yay" to me I said, "Same with me It's every day for me" She said, "At least my kids get to play with me" Then that's when I saw Nick on his A.T.V [Chorus] I said, "See you later Sam," She said the same to me Then I said "hey" to Nick And he said "hey" to me (2x) [Verse 2] Nick was like, "Talk about my wife to me" I said, "Your wife and me talked about your family life" He said, "Rightfully But did she tell you what it's like for me? Do you know what it's like to be a dad?" I said, "Not for the life of me" He said, "It's nice to be" I said, "It's nice to see" He said, "But it's not right when she's not very nice to me I like to see my kids, but work is every single night for me It is what it is, but it isn't what I'd like to be My kids are my kids, and my wife is my wife to me I wanna say 'goodnight, honey' without having her fight with me" I said, "She said you're right to me" He said, "That's what I like to see" I said, "That's what you like to hear" He said "Go fly a kite" to me I said, "Righteously" He said, "I know that you don't have a wife But at least you get to see the light with me But don't get me wrong, my wife is the love of my life to me For better or for worse, through the struggle and the strife with me" I said, "You're right for her" He said, "She's right for me" I said "That's right, and I'm glad you're both so tight with me" Then he said, "Write for me and her, and the life that we created Then let's reminisce of nights back in '93" [Chorus] I said "alright" to him He said "aight" to me "Now aim the mic at me, and tell me what you like to see If that's alright with you" I said, "That is alright with me 'cause when I look inside your life, that's where I'd like to be" (2x)
