Jason's Lyric ft. Michael Jahlil Lyrics

Man

It's crazy when I think about it

Couple years ago, I was tryna put this off as long as I possibly could

But I knew as a young boy

I wanted this experience

I just never thought it'd be as fun as it is, ya know

Check

Our little healer...welcome to the world

Although some people thought that you would be a girl

And if you were, I would've loved you just the same

But I'm glad I got somebody who will work to keep the fame

Cause the Gs in your name ain't for goblin or gremlin

There's meaning to your name, you are Godly and gifted

A helper, a harbinger that God truly saves

And for you to make it here beyond circumstance is brave

You're the rave that so many people prayed for

One of the reasons me and Mom are in this game for

And I don't know who you'll become, but you're primed to be great

Spoke life into your bones before your eyes were awake

To think about you following my steps is kinda ill

When the world becomes an oven, you're the coolest kind of chill

It's real, you're more than just a lyric that I write

You're a spirit full of fight, you're our miracle of life

Took a little time for you to get here

So please, won't you stay a while

So I can marvel at the way you grow

Thank God how He made you smile

Gonna teach you how to be a man

Have fun and let you be a boy

With every part of my spirit

You're my heart, you're my lyric, you're my joy

You should've had a sister or a brother

Who very well could've made a difference and discover

Some necessary cures, maybe even be a poet

But I had 'em wearing cotton, taking trips to the Potomac

It's code for the cold and I know it

But Poppa gave his soul to them rollers and I wasn't tryna blow it

Of bringing him or her into a home that wasn't focused

On the bigger goal of fitting into roles and devoting

All your love… not to mention I was frightened

Between your Pop-Pop and I, there'd be too much a likeness

And for whatever reason, either speeches getting heated

Or cheating, my inner fears were leaning on me leaving

But the home that you entered, departure's not a choice

And how can it be when love is emanating from your voice

My boy, you're more than just a lyric that I write

You're a spirit full of fight, you're our miracle of life

Took a little time for you to get here

So please, won't you stay a while

So I can marvel at the way you grow

Thank God how He made you smile

Gonna teach you how to be a man

Have fun and let you be a boy

With every part of my spirit

You're my heart, you're my lyric, you're my joy

I often thought (what you think) when I'd hear about you coming

I'd get a noose's worth full of knots in my stomach

Look up like, "Come on, You really think I'm able

I barely keep enough for me and Beeb on the table

And Lord, I ain't perfect, how can I be a model

I'm scared I'll either be too hard on him or I'll coddle

Try to get him from the bottle to the spoon rather soon

Potty train him all wrong and his confidence is doomed

And what about my music? Am I selling my equipment

I'll rarely have the time when he's crawling 'round and limping

I don't wanna resent him, he never asked to be

Then He said, "Joe, whatever passes Me has to be

Please believe…I wouldn't take you through the stressing

If I didn't have a solid plan to take you to the blessing

I chose you to father him, and though you didn't father them

I molded you a certain way so you could potter him

So Jay, if I come across like a Derringer

Shooting through your spirit, it's completely out of character

'Cause as much as you're in training, so am I

And neither one of us succeeds if your leader doesn't try

I'll mess up for sure, I'll screw up for certain

But I'll bear the brunt of pain if it means you're rarely hurting

You're worth it, you're more than just a lyric that I write

You're a spirit full of fight, you're our miracle of life, for life

Took a little time for you to get here

So please, won't you stay a while

So I can marvel at the way you grow

Thank God how He made you smile

Gonna teach you how to be a man

Have fun and let you be a boy

With every part of my spirit

You're my heart, you're my lyric, you're my joy

You're my joy

You're my joy

Yeah

Every part of my lyric, you're my joy
