Making yo momma proud, looking in yo daughter's eyes Kickin' it with your sons, trippin', never realize How good you got it, been so wrapped up in yo losses You couldn't see the profits, could still be in the projects Instead releasing projects just poppin' when niggas floppin' So you went back to prison, TIP, it could've been a coffin Now since we talkin', you been trippin' ever since I died Appreciate you missin' me but G, you still alive I'm lookin' down at you, and sendin' smiles to you I checked the wedding out, oh, tell Tamika "hi", would you? Told you she would get you, that's good 'cause shawty ride with you Kids getting big, seen King riding a bicycle Saw Niq Niq drive a car, see Bubba big as you I see Domani rappin', and he's spittin' too Little Deyjah beautiful, and Major supercool My life is over with, dawg, your life is good to you [Hook: Akon] And you can tell everybody, this is your song And you can tell everybody, this is your song I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind That I put down in words How won-der-ful life is [Verse 2: T.I.] Sit down, son... And listen to me son, and pay attention to me Seems like I'm the only one that you would listen to I never knew the time that I ain't get to spend with you Would ever result in you making yourself miserable You gotta let it go, it's painful, I already know The past is the past, just learn from the grown So you got crystal wit' you? And your sister Precious too I'm proud of you, did better than I expected you to Although I knew you was special when you was smaller That's why I was so much harder on you, knew you were smarter Not much convo to offer, I wasn't much of a talker Great to see you doin' better than me, even as a father Taking care of yo mama, overcoming the drama Your life is wonderful, son, don't let 'em take it from you Keep living it to the fullest, treasure it, it's a blessing Be thankful for all this beauty, when it's over with forget it [Hook: Akon] And you can tell everybody, this is your song And you can tell everybody, this is your song I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind That I put down in words How won-der-ful life is [Verse 3: T.I.] Damn... What up, Phil? So good to hear from you, we missing you (f'real) Remembering all of our conversations, daily reminiscing you The hood, today they lost, can tell they don't know who to listen to Today I watch over Jeanette like she was my own and that could missing you I swear it's so unfair that I'm right here and you up there I miss you so much now to the point I call your name but you not there Now I can't rest and I can't do shit off my mind, I'm so upset It wasn't your time to beat me there, it broke my heart to see you dead Shot with bullets that were meant for me, familiy's never forgiving me I know, but all I could do was follow your memory But pops I thank you so much for leaving, I had to grow up Slanging crack on the corner ain't quite the future you wanted for me Was it? And this pain I feel it never goes away Does it? This load I carry get no lighter I grew up all on my own with a broken heart and a broken home Taught me everything I've known, owe you everything I own I must admit you raised a warrior, my life could be a story book Hope you proud of me, didn't graduate from college but Thanks for listening to me, so long, I had this bottled up Til we meet in person let's keep speaking through my verses for life [Hook: Akon] And you can tell everybody, this is your song And you can tell everybody, this is your song I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind That I put down in words How won-der-ful life is [Outro: Akon] This is your song
