Lyrics
I don't got the patience nowadays I need a vibe
Smiling in the face but got frustration in my eyes
I get irritated cause I got so much inside
They say I can talk but when I talk I'm villainized
Reasons why im disconnected from people at times
I just don't have the time to fight to express my mind
It's more to life than going toe to toe with family
And I don't want my kids seeing this bro because it's damaging
Who wants to be the parents that can never handle things
When accountability presents itself and hands the keys
Will you humbly listen to your son or daughter when they speak
Or will you turn it all on them with aggression and make a scene
Will you jump to conclusions and hurt the bond with your seed
Will you show em they can come to you and practice what you preach
Will u make em feel like they can approach you or will you sneeze
All your frustrations on them and let emotions impede
Which I think we all have then seen at one point in time or another
It takes some time to recover when another does it to you
And that's why it's so crucial that your kid can come to you
They gone learn a lot about you when it's time to come to you
Are you Approachable
Can your son come to you
Will u act like he just done something to you
Would you listen to em
Can your daughter come to you
Would you manipulate the situation, tell me would you
Would you
Would you hear they words or only your thoughts or how u feel
Would you disregard they feels, as if they ain't a human
Tell me would you
We all got emotions so we can't make them suppress it
And we can't keep on doing it, then fault them for aggression
The minute that we play them type of games, that is deception
One day they gone get older and we'll have to learn our lesson
And the more that we avoid it, is the more we gone be stressing
And our grand kids gone pick up on it too and start to question
What would you tell em, what would you do
Would you do the same things that you use to do
Get explosive, would you push them all away from you
Or would we learn from our mistakes and get better with how we move
That would make anybody wanna lose they cool dawg
Man let's keep it honest
Since when disrespect, was being open and modest
Why tell a child to come to us, but when they do, we knock it
Will we ever tell ourselves it's time to stop it
Ion know, this a real sensitive topic
to be honest, Thats suppression at its finest
Are we Approachable
Can our sons come to us
Will we act like they just done something to us
Would we listen to em
Can our daughters come to us
Would we manipulate the situation, tell me would we Would we…
Would we hear they words or only hear our thoughts or how we feel
Would we disregard they feels, as if they ain't a human
Tell me would we
I'm on my first kid so I don't have that much experience
But I don't wanna step into this time moving furious
I look at all the ones that came before me and get curious
Learn from what I've seen and what I've seen this here is serious
I just wanna be a parent that my kids ain't scared of
I just want to take care of my kids and give the best love
I just want my son to know that he can talk about his feelings
I just want my daughter knowing she not weak cause she submissive
I just want my kids to know it's not bout being tough guys
I just want children knowing they can have they own minds
I just want my kids to know that they don't have to be like me
Remember that the goal to be like God
I'm here if u need
I just want my son to know his dad was humble enough to hear em
I just want my daughter to move off logic and not just feelings
I just want my kids to know they future spouses are respected
I want them to know they can approach me and not feel decepted
I just want my daughter and son in laws knowing they included
I just want my kids to know that I ain't perfect, ima human
I want them to know that anyone can learn from anyone
Regardless of the age or experience don't let em play you dumb
I just want my kids to remember that they a child of God
I just want my kids not to be scared to go against the odds
I just wanna make sure I don't twist things when they feelings hurt
I just wanna make sure that my kids don't end up on a shirt
I just want my kids to know they father valued how they felt
I don't wanna be a bitter dad that went and lost hisself
I don't wanna be a dad that can't be told about hisself
I don't wanna be the dad comparing his self to his kids
And always saying that I had it harder when I was a kid
That ain't the point, they not the reason I grew up how I did
I don't want my kids to feel they not allowed to have no feelings
I don't want my kids to grow up feeling like I'm narcissistic
