Reks - Parenthood lyrics

[Intro] Cause I never met nobody planned to be a parent in the hood Be a parent in the hood, parent's just don't understand y'all Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood hood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent parent in the hood Che' [Verse 1] Mirror reflection, made in his image Reflecting, is it neglecting? cause he didn't Toss the balls in the park, like them other dads Wrestle in the gra**, give noogies, clean boogies As he should be, both hands on your shoulder pads Says "go get 'em tiger" on the field you dash Alas, he wasn't there in the stands, with your family and friends When you caught the touchdown pa** To win the title pop, wanna pop on a different path Block corner with the sorted bags, sorted and As reality, really too bad, cause you don't wanna be like Mike 'bout Daddy you brag, you wanted to be, someone, something he could see Skip school, quit team, and enter the street Became Daddy, sadly, intimately, embraced his life Gladly, mimicked his speech, studied his walk, seriously Became one with him, a true son to him. Feel the aim instantly A boy needs a father to lean on, if he gone, the cycle gon' repeat Just keep on [Hook] Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood hood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent parent in the hood [Verse 2] Yeah The womb's protection, made in her image Reflecting, is it neglecting? cause she didn't Cook the meals, clean the crib, keep the kids safe She gettin' sh** faced. White powder try ta cower When she visits school, Mom is a disgrace Misplaced love, found hate in it's place Sensei, shuns her son's faith Found hell, heaven can wait to open gates A woman's grace, crawls in space, and her heartbeat great But Mommy ain't in a motherly state She says "Daddy gotta do what he do for the family And momma gotta use what she use to get by", abuse and get high Truth momma, why even lie? Your son not a fool realize The proof in your eyes, if I choose, to put this, needle in your side Can I ease in our lies? And the vein in demise, the pain, once again subsides Why we gotta hurt to feel good, Why? Momma knows what's goin' on inside And decides to miss God, walk on by. Close her eyes [Outro] Be a parent in the hood Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent in the hood Parenthood hood. Be a parent in the hood. Parent parent in the hood
