Back when he was 40
My father told me a story
My glory and bout most of the the things in life that's mandatory
So most of my life i despite anything coming towards me
I'm tryna' surround my self with people that's really important ..i'm
Progressing and stressing about my pass life
I was told i wasn't good enough its cause i'm black right
I'm fortunate but unfortunately i'm out of my dads life
I'm just hoping one day he can man up and act right
But its all right cause he don't make me feel bad
Cause i got my mom and she better than my real dad
So even when i'm still mad i grew up with out a father
He left me at 2 hes gone regret the day that he left my mama
And i'm tryna' set my mind to the right time
Threw out the culture tat divowers on my timeline
I'm tryna' show the world that i don't need to be a white guy
To live it on this earth but just to make it in my lifetime
And i learned that the hard way
When i never listen to exactly what my mom say
She kicked me out left me on the drive way
I guess that's what you getting when you paint the picture sideways
And i never told my mama this
But most of the things coming out my esophagus
Its mostly because of anger and mad that my father quit
But he don't like me so that man won't even be bothered with
And im'a follow this dream, this is the way i'm expressing it
I'm tryna' set my mind to whats right and whats really excellent
I'm guessing it i'm stressing it hoping i get the relevance
Cause i can do anything for me to achieve excellence
I'm excellent......and i'm from the Bronx
I grew up without a father which caused me mama to stress a lot
And to him i'm referred as something dumb
But when i'm rich and famous he gone see where i'm coming from
And i want something done about the condition i'm living in
Ones in my pocket still living the life of singleness
And i'm equivalent to my individuals with differences
I wanted the picture so i painted it with my finger tips
