Promise I ain't never been this honest
At the same time I ain't never been dishonest
This not for the faint heart weak stomachs
Write tears breath fears cry blood bleed vomit
So many skeletons I need three closets
So many elements it goes beyond the
Hold where I thought I had control tried to block it
But my soul will implode if I don't let it comment
And I know that I'm hurt but the pains never stopping
Clouds in the sky but the rains never dropping
So ironic but what is more ironic is trying to avoid something so atomic
Tried to use work to escape it
But work is my art and art makes me face it
Every time I put a ink down on a paper or step in the booth it cuts like a razor
Thinking of a life I help make ain't make it
My ex got pregnant with my baby
But she had miscarriage
I went numb and emotion went absent
Isolated and intoxicated off absinthe
Devastated I ain't even realize or imagine
I ain't even get the picture or the caption
Damage or the impact that had happened
Pissed in abyss lab rat in a labyrinth
Fabric of time ripped and I can't patch it
But can't be passive or dwell on the past tense
Have to use ashes to fuel my passion
God knows I miss ya even though I never met ya
So special that heaven couldn't let ya
Be here even for a mili second
But Imma hold you down and forever rep ya
That I promise
One sails the seas of life and believes
The storms will lead you home
These open roads will call you with the promise
You'll walk the Earth alone
I promise promise on everything I love
(I promise)
I promise promise put that on God above (I promise I promise)
I promise promise on everything I love
(I promise I promise)
I promise promise put that on God above (I promise I promise)
I promise promise on everything I love
(I promise I promise)
I promise promise put that on God above (I promise I promise)
I promise promise on everything I love
(I promise I promise)
I promise promise put that on God above (I promise I promise)
From a father to an unborn child
Now a child to a never had dad
It's a pity when you live in a city where yo' life sittin' pretty 'till a gun go blast
Now your worlds just clashed and your funds don't last
Got to go to work if you want that cash
But can't afford a sitter ain't no other way to go
So you leave the kids at home tell'em keep the windows closed
And don't open up the do's
My story not unique
You like single parent home take a single parent seat
Everybody had a mama work 'bout eighty-hour weeks
And a daddy tried his best but got ate up by the streets
Love at its peak pray it only increase
Past left over pray it never reheat
And to the dad that lost to the streets
You'd be proud of your son you'd be proud of your seed
Let me tell you that's a promise
One sails the seas of life and believes
The storms will lead you home
These open roads will call you with the promise
You'll walk the Earth alone
Even though I made it here without you (What else now?)
I know I'll never be the same without you
(What else now?)
Even though I made it here without you (What else now?)
I know I'll never be the same without you
(What what what what what else now?)
Even though I made it here without you (What else now?)
I know I'll never be the same without you
(What else now?)
Even though I made it here without you (What else now?)
I know I'll never be the same be the same
