mikey jay - birthright lyrics

[verse 1]
this one is for the people in the brier
who had this city on the wire
i’m almost 20, i never retire
unless i set the whole thing on fire
the people i met four years ago, stay with it
asking me if i won’t forget them, i didn’t
back when i dated that girl in june
i made the move, i got right, it ended soon
due to rumors, all things people would -ssume
about me that were never true
the other day, i saw my friend raise a boy
now i know it’s more than just about roy
this is growing up and college is a part of mine
i wouldn’t be ready for kids, unless i drop a dime
but my eyes opened, i gotta keep the legacy
let my child breathe after the death of me
blood and flesh, you’re born with a birthright, make it big
and grown up to not make the same mistakes that daddy did
and get better the grayer your hair, the wrinkled the skin
you’re a star, kid, i’ll always love you from within
and when momma is down, go be that shoulder
give her a kiss for me, go and hold her
if i die, don’t cry, look up and wave
finish your breakfast, then go out and play
keep your mind focused on the narrow and straight
and obey her rules, kids just gotta behave

[outro]
you meet a girl, have a couple of your own
hope she’s like your mother, bring her home
sit her at the table, treat her like a queen
when i was your age, this was all a dream
(when i was your age, this was all a dream
when i was your age, this was all a dream
when i was your age, this was all a dream.)
