[Maino, FNL, That Girl Georgie - Live for Me lyrics]
Uh, yeah live for me
Live for me for my kids lil nigga
Woo, yeah i need you to live for me, woo
Yeah, you don't understand right now
I lost my Pops same age
That you are right now i learned a lesson
Keep going when the odds are down
And when it's dark
You can see the stars shine down
I wanna protect you
You don't know the pain I felt
I was trapped, spent years in a cage, no help
Tryna keep you out the devil's hands
Don't want you livin' like me
You be a better man
And the plan is for me to help you get ahead
Strong minded black male
That's how you advance
And I know in your mind, I be hard at times
You gotta know, in the streets ain't where
Your hearts defined
It's the spirit you possess
That'll help you grow
I'm sorry that me and your
Mom's can't be that close
Just to see you live, I'd give up my soul
Gotta stay strong in the event that I go
Need you to live for me
Was fine till I think about it
But now it's intact
Sorry I had to live like that
Was there I had to give right back
I'm gonna make a way, someday
And I got yo back
How to make it? I'll teach you that
You need me and I need you back
Just keep me in your heart always
Took time to realize
Wasn't ready, busy womanizing
Another child wasn't part of my plan, see
And I hate myself for wishing
She'd swallowed that plan B, yuh
I've done it, it looks just like me
I pray she doesn't fall for
A man that's like me, no
Tryna turn into a better father
But my demons is pullin'
It's gettin' harder
So I wrote this letter for you
In case I wasn't with you
Times that you were cryin'
Wasn't there to hold the tissue
Just know I love you
Don't be scared to dream
Remember that a man only respects a queen
And I'm sorry me and mom's
Can't be that close
But it's still my job to
Keep you off the post
Just to see you live, I'd give up my soul
Stay strong in the event that I go
I need you to live for me
Was fine till I think about it
But now it's intact
Sorry I had to live like that
Was there I had to give right back
I'm gonna make a way, someday
And I got yo back
How to make it? I'll teach you that
You need me and I need you back
Just keep me in your heart always
Sins of thy father
Pray my kids don't fall victim to my Karma
Up nights just tryna feed her my gold heart
Uh black flowers what'd they minds
They grow sharper (preach)
They will never live like I used to
Or feel the pain and the hunger I was used to
Cold nights hot days that was usual
Just to see a dead body that's not unusual
Yeah, keep my son away from street corners
Keep my daughter safe
Don't let them creeps sweet talk her
I got many flaws, living with regrets
A ghetto king tryna raise
My prince and princess
Was fine till I think about it
But now it's intact
Sorry I had to live like that
Was there I had to give right back
I'm gonna make a way, someday
And I got yo back
How to make it? I'll teach you that
You need me and I need you back
Just keep me in your heart always
Live for me for my kids lil nigga
Woo, yeah i need you to live for me, woo
Yeah, you don't understand right now
I lost my Pops same age
