Inheritance
(专辑: Art Ambidextrous - 2011)
Don't take away his inheritance That's what he cries So the
Lord saw fit to save him But not before this And the
night has shown 'nuff weakness Landed him right here A
few moments of pleasure got him tied to the
type of woman mama said be wise to But he finally understands what Dr. King meant That a
man can't ride your back unless you've bent it Stand up, man up, take care of your own Though reduced to the
weekends, he'll still fo' sho' show up But it's sho' 'nuff [?] how something so sinful nine months later got you blissful and it ain't quite simple And yeah homie, I
get that Like how you tell your daughter that's what you think of her mama But he can't stand the
sight of her, in court fighting her Frightened, losing bad, judge think he lying He like "I am not them, not a
statistic, I
am desperate, please don't take away my inheritance" Cried And he sees her in the
rearview, waving 'til he's gone Turns left at the
corner and he cries the
whole ride home Home... if you can call it that He misses her laughter And it shakes him to the
core like the
pound of the
gavel And life is just killing time 'til Friday 3PM, mama comes late 'Cause she don't wanna see him She speaks so I'll of him "That boy ain't no good, he grew up in Lynwood, he'll always be so good" But none of that matters 'cause it's daddy's time Let's shake the
spot just for us, God Please stop the
clock Hold every moment with him 'Cause quite literally, it could be his last one Lord, what has he become? He like "She doesn't deserve this and I
hope I
don't look nervous, She'll soon be a
teenager and I'll be on her nerves then" But until then, he'll hold in the
pain of being desperate Please don't take away his inheritance That's what he cries That's what we cry
