I need U Lyrics

Demon talk, baby

What's really sad to me is da fact

That we usually can't see how lucky we are

To have what we got, until we lose it

I now n' then try to rationalize tellin' myself

Things is just da way they had to be, but yo

One can only hold these tears back for so long

You know

I got you, both in my heart n' my head

That's a pretty start

Once again raisin' my glass alone in da dark

I really wish you were still around

'Cause I need a man to man talk

About da path I'm gettin' ready to walk

I think I found da one

That checks most da boxes n' is carryin

Yo' grand son

It would've meant da world to me

If you could meet her, greet her n' welcome her

Into da family, sir

This part of my life, I can't afford to mess up

I need to be da best

Inspire respect

Grind on point, but I got my eyes

Set on a bigger check

'Cause I might soon need a bigger nest

Sharpen my blades, remain ready to protect

My pandemonium every second

But that's theoretical n' I got

No idea, what I'm steppin' into

Yo' words of wisdom would've been pretty helpful

These are the days that I need you

More than any other

These are the days that I miss you

I wish I still had you

These are the days that I need you

More than any other

These are the days that I miss you

I wish I still had you

Realization, what you was doin

Was in fact for my own good

Hit me pretty late

I was already in da wrong woods

I don't think I've even began understandin' yet

Da long nights n' da plights you was dealin' with

I turned out no so bad

But is what worked for the only way

N' will it hurt to see him walk away

On his first day of school

What do I do to prevent him from gettin' locked away

How do I know when to intervene

N' when to let him cook on his own

How do I help him reach his goals

I'm beein told I'm supposed to take it slow

Will I ever be ready to just simply let him go

Plannin' on namin' him after us

Which in itself is a weapon n' plus just 'cause I must

His life won't be easy

But I trust him with da genes he got

To overcome it all n' make it out on top of his generation

That'll be my final validation

Before I get on my way for da final destination

Until then, keep my spot warm, grab some popcorn

N' watch yo' boy hit da livin' with a rock storm

These are the days that I need you

More than any other

These are the days that I miss you

I wish I still had you

These are the days that I need you

More than any other

These are the days that I miss you

I wish I still had you

I guess it's my turn to walk through that door

N' be a model now, pops

I really could use a talk, you know

Tips n' all on how you did it n how it's done

Heaven knows, only time is our limit

Yeah
