(Hey son, let me talk to you for a minute There's a lot you still have to learn about being a man I'mma keep it real with you tho I had alot of the same thoughts in my younger days Sit down with me for a second - let me holla at you) Younger days - I'm a man but I'll admit that I still got some childish ways I'm trying to figure out what life's all about Guess I'm seeing how things are rolling out From all the decisions I made In my younger days I looked at my son He said "Dad I love you" - I told him I love him - but never could tell him enough I gave him a hug and told him I'm proud - wish I had that coming up Even though it hurts cause I never seen it Still I give it to him cause I know he needs it Never would I really want to be the reason Why - why he never heard nobody ever say he could Why he never seen a man treat his Mama good Why he wanted to dream - but never seen nobody do it I wanted to lead by example He's looking to me for all the answers And I'm still trying to find them myself son I'mma change the game As a kid - I never seen a man hold it down Looked at Mama workin all those hours Her man - all he do - is abuse his power I told myself I would never be the abusive type So I grind for the fam - and I do what I can Pray the Most High always leads me right If you have love in your heart then you can get respected If you have hate in your heart then you might get rejected It's best if you don't like it then you decide to change Looked in the mirror - that's what I said - in my younger days Younger days - I'm a man but I'll admit that I still got some childish ways I'm trying to figure out what life's all about Guess I'm seeing how things are rolling out From all the decisions I made In my younger days Younger days - I'm a man but I'll admit that I still got some childish ways I'm trying to figure out what life's all about Guess I'm seeing how things are rolling out From all the decisions I made In my younger days (Now I know you trying to get out there and do your own thing But I mean, you gotta enjoy being a kid as long as you can Man life's got a way of making you grow up soon enough Real talk - listen to me) Now I know you wanna be a man But believe me - be a kid as long as you can Cause in time you're gonna grow up You'll only want the pleasure but the pain is gonna show up And you gotta find a way to make it You'll make mistakes and you'll have to face them The people that's always by your side Aint always ride or die So you'll have to separate the fake ones - from the real ones - I'm keeping it real son Real men don't have hoes - they have a real woman You don't have to be a womanizer - be the sole provider -for your family Rememer to grind but don't forget your dreams And don't settle for less cause you are a king THAT'S REAL TALK - YOU GOT THE BLOOD OF KINGS RUNNING THROUGH YOU REMEMBER THAT And as a man you're gonna have to do what you gotta do Keep it real - yep - that's just a part of you Don't matter what you say as much as what you do Just know you'll find yourself in some strange positions A lot of mess you can get in - if you don't take heed and listen I'm just wishing that even when you're broke you'll still pay attention And laziness is the worse drug - don't get addicted I'm witcha when you're right - but I'll still be here when you're wrong Just know cause you're gettin older and you got a little money - that don't mean that you're grown I know that everything don't apply right now - but one day your mind will change When you look in the eyes of your son and you recall these younger days Younger days - I'm a man but I'll admit that I still got some childish ways I'm trying to figure out what life's all about Guess I'm seeing how things are rolling out From all the decisions I made In my younger days Younger days - I'm a man but I'll admit that I still got some childish ways I'm trying to figure out what life's all about Guess I'm seeing how things are rolling out From all the decisions I made In my younger days
