Values 2 Lyrics

Just got off the phone with my momma Talkin' bout hoes and the drama

Talkin' bout bros in the commas Talkin' bout clothes and designer

Hate that I load her with these problems She said shut up boy that's what I'm here for

You barely speak to me these days You need to open up a little more

I said it's okay But you know momma it's hard to say no

Ma I've been dealin' with some personal things And it's hard to let go

First off I don't even know which road to take I like my lil' 9 to 5 but I'm an artist man

I was born to paint I was born to create for real

And I like the way that you pray for me when I'm down bad

I got new girls that I want your opinion on no offense to

I got this new girl that got a kid when I don't know how to be no dad

Cause I ain't had no dad

A lot of sudden changes I had to adjust fast

Me and Luther learnin' each other and of course we clash

But you know it's all respect

I never seen him lay a hand on you and he came home every night

So to me that's a big flex for real

All respect man

Love you for real

But what I'm talkin' bout is father time

That one on one that heart to heart to ask you how you are sometimes

The type of shit that's hard to find

Forgive my language it's just hard sometimes

I still make solo trips to the mall sometimes

I still take the long way home and cruise when I get off at 9

Get in my moods when I don't wanna speak at all sometimes

But I know it doesn't hurt to call sometimes I know

I know I know

I still got issues that I'm workin' on

Places I'm still searchin' on

Need to drown some thoughts out but it's problems I should surface on

I just say them here cause we so much alike we don't get along

Somebody gon' hear this song and send it to you

So you can call me and ask me what you did wrong

But truth be told nothing you the truest one

When you come through it's done right or wrong

You stand on it and refuse to run

I like that for real

But you know me I'm still Stewart's son

It's hard to tell me somethin

And all those scriptures that you taught me I still remember some

Some of my favorites was Exodus 14:14 and Psalms 1

Grew up the church kid

I used to hate how you sheltered me from things

But as I grew up I see it was worth it

So much been goin' on

We lost Damien, we lost Lamar, we lost Nard

And on and on and on and on

Feel this

You gotta feel this

I hear you son I do, I get it

I've been there, I've walked that

Been right where you are

But you can't let nobody get in the way of your motivations

You can't let nobody get in the way of your dreams

You can't let anybody get in the way of your ambitions

You gotta keep goin', you gotta keep pushin

If you gotta look yourself in the mirror

And talk to yourself and motivate yourself

And say look, I gotta do what I gotta do

I'ma keep pushin', I'ma keep grindin

There's no way in the world I can stop here

I got too much to live for

I'm gon' die empty

I'm not dyin' full

I'ma give it all I got
