See I don't talk about
Unless I'm trying to be about it
They told me I'mma be big, I'm trynna see about it
And if I never make it, I'mma be a G about it
Settle down, have a wife and kids, tell my seeds about it
Like, you know your dad was real dope with rapping
But he could never catch a break, I don't know what happened
Guess he ain't have enough tattoos or ice and things
He rather watch the international news and be happy
He even had shoes, or rice and beans
Because, seeing how other countries had it, made him understand it
He was blessed that is, so
On the day that I finally address my kids
I'mma tell them to be thankful
And even if they doing something playful
I'll tell them how impressed I is
So it build up their confidence to try something new
And be proud of their accomplishments
Plant a seed, step back, and be amazed at the miracle life often is
'cause from nothing, you see that seed grow to become a tree
And how high that tree grows, sprout off some leaves
And absorb the sun,create fruits that fall down and the animals eat those,and why it all happens, nobody knows
Some say God, some say evolution
I present both sides so you can make your own conclusion, but
These are things I will tell my offspring, so they can decide
What they should bring or not bring along
On life's journey, and so they try to heal the world
With the man in the mirror, like the pop king
So either way,if I'm faced with fame or if not
But I know my kid's laced with game
And that day gone be worth the wait
Until then, I sit back and look back at the world
Watching it,circulate, circulate, circulate
Unless I'm trying to be about it
They told me I'mma be big, I'm trynna see about it
And if I never make it, I'mma be a G about it
Settle down, have a wife and kids, tell my seeds about it
Like, you know your dad was real dope with rapping
But he could never catch a break, I don't know what happened
Guess he ain't have enough tattoos or ice and things
He rather watch the international news and be happy
He even had shoes, or rice and beans
Because, seeing how other countries had it, made him understand it
He was blessed that is, so
