Shout out pops man I swear that's a real one He done showed me to now from when I was young Honestly with all the learning man I ain't done Taught a boy who just happened to be his son Even though I couldn't see him he was working late I understood he was putting food on the plate He always told me if I needed him then he'd be here And if my dreams starting running then I better chase Remember back when I was young yeah them better days When the most important thing was bringing home the grades Now I'm bouta be a rapper man time flies And now you looking pretty old growing all them grays You were a busy guy up in high demand If I said that I can't you always told me I can But now I understand What it takes to be a real man Coming up I done had a alot of father figures But can't none compare when I'm sided with ya You kept me in the church Which kept me off the street Made me eat my veggies And keep my room real neat Taught me to fear God and put family first At the time I ain't know how much that was worth A provider, protector, a business man How you juggled them all I couldn't understand I told you I wanna rap And you was on board The ship popped a leak You pulled it to shore I wrote a couple songs You told me write some more You got me on the stage And I started to soar You taught me to be the best me I could be Now I'm older, its crystal how clear to see How lucky can I be, I got you in my corner And with this rap stuff you're my biggest supporter Taught me how to improve what I succeeded at Taught me how to treat the ladies and I needed that Taught me how to throw a ball, shoot it and swim You taught me how to turn loses into wins Someday I'll have a family of my own And when I'm lost man you know I'm gonna hit your phone Taught me that love is the only key I just hope I could be what you were for me Now I understand Now I understand You were a busy guy up in high demand If I said that I can't you always told me I can But now I understand Yeah What it takes to be a real man See growing up we ain't have a whole lot of money But that wasn't my concern you told me not to worry You was on it, you was pushing hustling hard Doing all that you could working 3 jobs Everything that you've given I could never repay I just need you to know I understand today And I know that you were busy man that's ok Because you always made time somehow someway Be responsible and be a leader And once you learn some things go be a teacher Be a protector, Be a provider Learn from your mistakes and rise higher Treat everybody with love and respect And if something ain't right interject Leave yo mark let them know where you stepped man All you taught me I hope I reflect Yeah I understand I understand Look This what you told me Face yo fears never back down Boy I ain't raise you to be no background And Wes pop wasn't nothing you was his pop too Yo Tell me how you did with so much to do All them times weren't easy but we made it through Man All I wanted in my life was to be like you Because you have shown me the way And I just do not know what to say Cuz it was you if I needed some manly advice I Guarantee it you and Ma gonna be set for life Yeah Yall gonna be set for life You ain't supposed to fit in with the crowd Always be careful with who you surround Told me quitting just wasn't allowed You always tell me that you are so proud man Yeah I understand I understand Hey Pops
