Sometimes, I be thinkin bout if I had a son into this world how it would be for him seeing the way it is out here. Its crazy
If I had a son this is what I'd tell em
Stay on yo grind young nigga dont settle
Be a man, stand tall on yo feet
Dont depend on nann motherfucker to eat
See momma gonna show you how to always have a hustle
Da streetz dont give it we gon get it on da muscle
You my son, Lil nigga pay attention
Neva be the talker baby always just listen
Niggas gon reveal the hand
Its up to you to be the smarter man
Play chess,not checkers checkmate their ass
Keep the mind of a warrior
Dot let these niggas have you in the coroner
In this world you gon see alot of pain
A whole lot of evil that I really cant explain
People gon change friends turn foes
Niggas turn fake , tell everything they know
If i had a son [x4]
And I understand if you gotta sell crack man
Cus this country aint fit for the black man System so scandalous
Now in days misdemeanors get you Cali Dust
Hold yo head up You my lil king
Dont let nann motherffucker crush yo dreams
Imma show you how to beat and break all odds
Teach you how away from all mobs
Imma teach you how to beat dem 48 Laws
Blood in my eyes in the odd of all
Teach you how to pray
Read yo bible, dont play
Read yo Psalms everyday
And dont chase no chick, no broad
Always wear a rubber never run up in dem raw
I know you aint here wit me now today but if I had you son this is wat I'd say
Rule #1: Always stay true
Rule #2: Respect who respect you
Rule #3: Pray for a sign
Rule #4: God is the only one that comes before yo momma
Rule #5: Always ride wit yo five
Rule #6: Neva call a girl a bitch
Rule #7: Dont result in tellin, cus all rats get buried by da dozens
Rule #8: Respect yo weight, neva put more den a 7 in a 28
Rule #9: Keep a miltary mind
Dont slip make sure you always got an extra clip
Rule #10:Watch who you call yo friends
You gon see who yo friends when you need some mends.
I know you aint here wit me now today but if I had you son this is wat I'd say
If i had a son [x4]
