[Verse 1]
You gave me a suit of sharp intellect a hat of rebellion to match
I rock em for the world to see as we speak wrapped in a smile
Many say that our actions and attitudes are similar
Vocab in the clouds wild no denying that I’m your child
And though biological wasn't tangible I have to hand it to you
Cause you helped raise a man any father would be proud of
Encouraged me to be me and dream beyond my means
I gave your wedding ring to my queen when I found love
And though you didn't want me at first I can only imagine
The feeling when the doctor came and told you I had cancer
Spreading from my eye to my brain the chances of me dying
Were high it’s insane what makes us turn to the most high for answers
I love you more then you know and the more that I grow
The more that I see all that you sacrificed trying to give me the best
You gave me all of you what more could I ask for
A mother beauty beholds I owe you my last breath
[Verse 2]
You gave me a suit of selflessness a hat of responsible to match
I rock em for the world to see as we speak wrapped in a smile
Hardly saw eye to eye but I watched you provide for the family
Treated me as an equal to my brothers though I wasn’t your child
Took on a weight to you shoulders that most men couldn’t bench
And you embraced it lased it from the love to the discipline
Of course I hated the long talks you would give us
But no matter how many times eyes rolled or shoulders shrugged I was listening
You one of the greatest men I’ve ever know and I mean that
From the depths of my heart your compassion has allowed me to say
That even though we met when I was 1 to this day
I consider you my father in every way no need for DNA
I love you more then you know and the more that I grow
The more that I see all that you sacrificed trying to give me the best
You gave me all of you what more could I ask for
A father with the heart of a lion I owe you my last breath
You gave me a suit of sharp intellect a hat of rebellion to match
I rock em for the world to see as we speak wrapped in a smile
Many say that our actions and attitudes are similar
Vocab in the clouds wild no denying that I’m your child
And though biological wasn't tangible I have to hand it to you
Cause you helped raise a man any father would be proud of
Encouraged me to be me and dream beyond my means
