Amari

[Verse 1]
Born August 11th, and when your mama was pregnant
I was out with my niggas, and she was gettin’ neglected
I told her sorry for not [...], and I hope she really accept it
When you grow up, you gon’ be like me
Yeah, nigga, you can bet it
Grand-mama in heaven, you ain’t even get to meet
And if you feel nobody don’t love you
There’s no [...] shit to me
You look like your mama with a little mix of me
Hutzel Hospital, 2009, that was history
We was eighteen when we had you
I was the first to hold you, nigga
I brought you in the world, I got a lot to owe you, nigga
The ups and downs, the rights and wrongs
A lot to show you, nigga
Hold your own, don’t let another nigga hold you, nigga
Lookin’ at you playin’ the game, while I’m writin’ this rap
As long as you alive, nigga, I got your back
Nigga, I got your back
And as long as you alive, nigga, I got your back
Sometimes, I sit and wonder: where would I be without my son?
It’s like a bullet without the gun, a good day without the sun
You gon’ run low up on your friends
You gon’ run low up on your funds
Fuck it, son, you don’t need no one but me

[Chorus]
Amari gon’ be this, Amari, nigga, gon’ be that
Amari gon’ be good, Amari gon’ be all of that
Amari act a fool, Amari, nigga stay in school
Amari, your daddy love you
Amari got the [...], Amari gon’ have all the girls
Amari get that bread, Amari, he gon’ run the world
Amari ain’t gon’ lose, Amari, he gon’ be that dude
Amari, your daddy love you

[Verse 2]
Verse 2 again for you, love the ones that’s kin to you
Zaya and Chase too, [...], Samiya, Blake too
Ain’t shit can replace you
Niggas gon’ hate you
When you do shit they can’t do
Mad ‘cause they ain’t you
Do what daddy do
Kill ‘em with kind-, don’t pay ‘em mind
No choice but to shine, your pops [...]
You get a real, make sure she real, then you make her [...]
This time, don’t be like me, if I could go back in time
I’ll erase all the tears that I made [...] cry
I’m the sky watchin’ over you, when I’m dead and gone
So, these fake ass niggas better gon’ and leave my son alone
Bitch, leave my son alone
Lovin’ you wrong? I don’t wanna do right, fool
Do what I didn’t, graduate out of high school
Keep it real with your fam like I do
So, when you get a son, he wanna be just like you

[Chorus]
Amari gon’ be this, Amari, nigga, gon’ be that
Amari gon’ be good, Amari gon’ be all of that
Amari act a fool, Amari, nigga stay in school
Amari, your daddy love you
Amari got the [...], Amari gon’ have all the girls
Amari get that bread, Amari, he gon’ run the world
Amari ain’t gon’ lose, Amari, he gon’ be that dude
Amari, your daddy love you

[Outro: Amari(?)]
I love you, daddy
