Wonderful Life
T.I. Akon Lyrics

Making yo momma proud, looking in yo daughter’s eyes
Being a good parent and making your family proud brings true happiness.

Kickin' it with your sons, trippin' never realize
Spending quality time with your children is precious, and it's easy to overlook its value.

How good you got it, been so wrapped up in yo losses
It's easy to focus on negative experiences, but it's important to also recognize and appreciate the good in life.

You couldn’t see the profits, could still be in the projects
Focusing on negative experiences can blind you from seeing the opportunities for success in your life.

Instead releasing projects just poppin' when niggas floppin'
Don't chase attention and success based on the failures of others.

So you went back to prison, TIP it could've been a coffin
Bad choices can lead to dire consequences, and incarceration can be dangerous.

Now since we talkin' you been trippin' ever since I died
Losing someone close can deeply impact your life, causing you to stumble emotionally.

Appreciate you missin' me but G, you still alive
Life is precious, and it's important to make the most of the time you have.

I’m lookin' down at you, and sendin' smiles to you
There is comfort in believing that loved ones who have passed on are watching over you.

Told you she would get you, that’s good 'cause shorty ride wit you
Having a partner by your side who supports you is important to success and happiness.

Kids getting big, seen King riding a bicycle
Children grow up quickly, and it's important to cherish the milestones and memories.

Little Deyjah beautiful, and Major super cool
Each child is unique and special in their own way.

My life is over with dawg, your life been good to you
Life is short, so enjoy the blessings and opportunities that come your way while you can.

Seems like I’m the only one that you would listen to
Relationships between parents and children can be complicated, but communication is important.

You gotta let it go, it’s painful, I already know
Holding onto past hurt can be detrimental to your well-being, and it's important to let go and move on.

Just learn from it, grow
Experiences, both good and bad, can be learning opportunities and can aid in personal growth.

Although I knew you was special when you was smaller
Parents have a special insight into their children's unique qualities and abilities.

Great to see you doin' better than me, even as a father
It's rewarding and fulfilling to see your children succeed and surpass your own achievements.

Your life is wonderful son, don’t let 'em take it from you
Life is full of challenges and adversity, but it's important to not let it hinder your appreciation for the beauty of life.

Keep living it to the fullest, treasure it, it’s a blessing
Life is a precious gift, and it should be enjoyed and appreciated to the fullest extent.

Be thankful for all this beauty, when it’s over with forget it
Take the time to appreciate the beauty and blessings of life, even if it doesn't last forever.

Shot with bullets that were meant for me, family's never forgiving me
Tragedies can lead to deep-seated pain and resentment that can be difficult to overcome.

I grew up all on my own with a broken heart and a broken home
Adversities in childhood can deeply impact one's growth and development.

Owe you everything I own
A parent's love and sacrifice can never truly be repaid.

I must admit you raised a warrior, my life could be a story book
Parenting can be challenging, but it can help shape a child into a strong and resilient individual.

Hope you proud of me, didn’t graduate from college but
Success is not solely measured by academic achievement or societal expectations.

Til we meet in person let’s keep speaking through my verses for life
Music can serve as a way to connect with loved ones who have passed on and to keep their memory alive.
