Kal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mama worked so hard to keep a lil nigga out the streets
All I want is for that woman to be so damn proud of me
Daddy workin all day long so we can have a place to sleep
I just wanna wanna do it big pay em back for everything

Daddy taught me how to walk
He told me sometimes I'll have loss but I just gotta shake it off
That lesson was the boss
He made a man up out of me he set examples I could see
He made mistakes too that okay
Cause things ain't always how they seem
We lived struggle had to hustle
Always staying humble
Never mumbled
Told me to speak up
Lil king go face the jungle
I'm standing tall got my head up
My pops was real he had some guts
He said look son just don't give up
Gave me support and one on one
Bonding times we had some fun
Man I can't thank that man enough
That's my father Im his son

Mama worked so hard to keep a lil nigga out the streets
All I want is for that woman to be so damn proud of me
Daddy workin all day long so we can have a place to sleep
I just wanna wanna do it big pay em back for everything

Mama daddy listen up its me
Ima work hard and eventually succeed
I just want y'all to be proud of me
I'm a long way from the little boy y'all see
I'm a man now and I'm on to bigger things
Even study at the university
Cause y'all raised me to be all that I can be
I know I had attitude yea I was mean
But I still love you y'all a big ass part of me
Two pillars held me up yea that's my family




Y'all seen it in me y'all been waiting patiently
All your hard work really paid off y'all to done raised a king
