That’s My Kid - Tech N9ne, CeeLo Green, Kutt Calhoun

If my kid has a problem

It’s up to me as the guardian to go solve 'em

Make my life and involve 'em

Late at night when I call 'em

I like to hear 'em say daddy your song is awesome

Instead of gangbangers in school won’t let up

I’m fed up I’m wondering if you can come up and red up

You shut up, negativity can be found inside of my angels

Even though I was stupid but I put it down

Set trippin' - But I let it go headed for energetic flow

When I’m up to know that I was down and out

But now I’m breaded though

I know you saw me rep colors when I was young, dumb and malicious

I’m thankful, that all my blemishes never made you suspicious

Latched on to light

That’s known to hype apparent you coherent knowing I rapped wrong to right

Love and positivity instilled in my kid

Their family my family their mother and I did

Discipline starts at home even if they can’t stand you

Watch em' fights land, you clock em' right hand

To stop em' that a man if you stand up even add a camera

They won’t be James Holmes, and they won’t be Adam Lanza

Or John Malvo, I’ll flow loud for my child though

Ain’t raising no groucho evil out my house yo

Instead of me watching em' disappear in the night

Air em' at graduation saying that’s my kid right there

I proudly proclaim my love

The future’s born from my own flesh and blood

All that matters this time

So my prayer is that the sun will always shine

On that sweet child of my mine

To my unborn I give my all so you could ball like I couldn’t

Stay in school and play it smooth and do those things that I wouldn’t

Pay attention and keep your distance from ignorant instances

Play a instrument anything that you want just envision it

Follow your dreams, no matter what may come or what may fall

Cuz' ain’t no shame in failing as long as you know you gave your all

Staned up, man up, get a handle on yourself tighten your belt

Do what you can to do for you and ya’ll just don’t, do it for the wealth that

they offer

It sounds awful but if me and your mama' ain’t talking

And she said that I ain’t offering a call just as often as I should

I pray that you get older and you understand that I was just, doing what I could

If she let me, if you have a second I could explain

Like so many transitions in life that people change

Whether I’m on top soil, or dead in a box

I love you dearly sincerely and that’ll never stop

For my kid…

For my kid…

I proudly proclaim my love

The future’s born from my own flesh and blood

All that matters this time

So my prayer is that the sun will always shine

On that sweet child of my mine

Paris and Darius Dariana Unique Oshay Malik

And one on the way in a matter of weeks

But it’s a shame cuz' I think that my other daughter ain’t mine

Andria baby I love you I guess your father was blind

In due time you’ll understand it, how your mama' was scandelous,

(Wait this don’t seem right man, I don’t think I can handle it,)

When I all I ever did was show love for you

Sweated blood for you, any moment take a slug for you

But its cool, the baby mama drama is expected

And that karma is going to be what I been blessed with

Sit back and learn your lessons as our seeds grow from kids to adolescence

Then resent you for yourself as misdirection

The first to heed the message is Malik

Abandonded by his mama' on Thanksgiving evening

Bout' three years ago was up to me to feed to em morals

Values manhood, knowledge a week ago he graduated

You ask me, then Ima' say

I proudly proclaim my love

The future’s born from my own flesh and blood

All that matters this time

So my prayer is that the sun will always shine

On that sweet child of my mine

Pay attention to your children

They shouldn’t be able to be into too much that you’re not aware of

Together we are a powerful force

As one mind, body and soul

Let no evil enter nor attempt

To reduce us because of the beliefs we hold

And with this love combined with our strength

We ward off pain and stress

Technician I am wholeheartedly in life and in death
