[The O’My’s, Nico Segal, Chance The Rapper - The Wonder Years lyrics]
"All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street"
What Papa told me
When I was a snot nose, my Papa told me
All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street
What Papa told me
Big boys don’t cry catch you slippin
Put a whoopin’ on that backside
Papa was a one to let
You know where you stand
Looked you in the eye, Papa never lied
Back when I was younger, sat me on his knee
Said this the kind of man you
Gon' to grow to be
A man whose word is stone
Always rights his wrongs
No matter what the trouble
You got to carry on
When I was a snot nose, my Papa told me
All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street
What Papa told me
When I was a snot nose, my Papa told me
All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street
What Papa told me
(I remember what you told me, like)
Little Chancellor, pull your pants up
Stick and move son, keep your hands up
Somebody puts you down? Better stand up
Don’t wear no jewelry nigga
Them shit's is handcuffs
Don’t need no back talk
That mean don’t talk back
You going back for fall? You
Plan to fall back?
Naw? Cool, Jackson 5, sell CDs in packs of 5
Better rap your heart out rooster boy
Cause them streets will eat your ass alive
Artist's darkest moments are the
Farthest from the barbecue
Father’s day in barber shops
Fishing at the park with you
Act right when I’m not with you
Still askin’ what I should do
Got to watch the throne
Because it’s time to blow
But, I got what I got, I got from you
When I was a snot nose, my Papa told me
All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street
What Papa told me
Now that I’m a young man
The devil’s haunting me
He won’t let me sleep, I see him in my dreams
And every day I wake
My soul he tries to take
But Papa taught me stay the course
And pray for better days
Nevermind what they say, be what you about
If you are who you say
No need to speak it clout
Papa’s love was strong when he
Held you in his arms
Could nothing ever break that bond
When I was a snot nose, my Papa told me
All you got is family, son, soon you’ll see
Always hold your Mama’s hand when
You’re crossin’ that street
What Papa told me
