One In The Same

1970 somethin
***** I dont sweat the date, my moms is late
So I had to plan my escape, out the skins
In this world, the fly girls
Tanqueray or Hennessy until I called Earl
Ten months in this gut, what the ****
I wish moms would hurry up so I could get buck
While, Juvenile rippin mics and ****
New York, New York ready for the likes of this
Every single day, Im blessed to look into his eyes
And I cant help but see no-one, but you
You gave the gift of motherhood
And I raised him up, the best I could
Never got to know you, but hes so much like you
And its a damn shame
Why youre not here today(Why youre not here today)
I try my best to explain
Why did you go
But a child dont understand(just dont understand)
Oh. No-way (No-way)
And Im never let em forget you
Youre forever in their hearts
One in the same
So glad you came
To carry on the name
I know that youre lookin down
And youre so proud
I know youre lookin down(lookin down)
I can see your smile
You left a special part of you, with me
Duh nuh, duh nuh
Then came the worst date, May, 21st
2:19 is when my mamas water burst
No spouse in the house, so she rolls herself
To the hospital
To see if she could get a little help
Heart-racing
And God only knows what was on her mind
Umbilical chords wraped around my neck
Im seein my death
And I aint even took my first step
Luckily she made it
Must have been right on time
Through his grace, everything was fine
I made it out, Im bringin mad joy
The doctor looked and said
'Hes gonna be a Bad Boy.'
One in the same(One in the same)
So glad you came (So glad you came)
To carry on the name
I know that youre lookin down
And youre so proud(I know that youre lookin down)
I know youre lookin down
I can see your smile (oh yeah)
You left a special part of you with me(Right here with me )
And its a damn shame
Why youre not here today(Why youre not here today)
I try my best to explain
Why did you go
But a child dont understand(just dont understand)
Oh. No-way (No-way)
And Im never let em forget you
Cause youre forever in our hearts
You never leave
Forever in our hearts
Forever
