Hit-Boy

[Verse 1]
Mama, I made it, look at your boy
I hope you proud, lookin' at me with joy
I survived through all the pain when you showed me that I didn't have a choice
But never let 'em try to silence your voice
Now we lit, mama (Real)
No need to trip, mama (Real)
I know you sick, mama (Real)
That smile show me you ain't never gon' quit, mama (Uh)
Want you to see me get my Grammy in that 'fit, mama (Woo)
Front row full of the families where you'll sit, mama
You're so quick to smile right through the pain
Laugh right through the cries just to show us your strength
I'm so grateful for your love and every lesson you gave
You made me and taught me to be brave, that's why I'm on my way

[Chorus]
I said I'm on my way
Tell every dream that I'm chasin' that I'm on my way
Tell the city that we made it and I'm on my way
Doin' a hundred while I'm on my way
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
I said I'm on my way
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Doin' a hundred while I'm on my way
I'm on my way
[Verse 2]
I just really wanna make my daughters proud
And show them there's a reason why there's times I'm not around
I sacrifice the moments just to get this off the ground
When you been in it this long, there ain't no other way around
I gotta make it, soon they gon' be drivin'
Graduating high school, headed off to college
If I don't make it here, I gotta get to it regardless
The pressure's building up, the more they grow, the more I'm honest
I just tell them daddy's tryna make it rappin'
But you can be whatever you desire and imagine
And you can be successful with the right amount of passion
I hope they look at this and see that anything can happen
Never quit and you can have it
Had my first at fifteen, second one in my twenties
Son on the way, they say that my time is coming
But my career froze, I wish the clock wasn't runnin'
The money doesn't match who I'm becoming but I'm on my way

[Chorus]
I said I'm on my way
Tell every dream that I'm chasin' that I'm on my way
Tell the city that we made it and I'm on my way
Doin' a hundred while I'm on my way
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
I said I'm on my way
I'm on my way, I'm on my way
Doin' a hundred while I'm on my way
I'm on my way
[Outro]
Tell the city that we made it and I'm on my way
