Sometimes, I be thinkin bout if I had a son into this world how it would be for him seeing the way it is out here. Its crazy

[Verse 1:]

If I had a son this is what I'd tell em
Stay on yo grind young ^!$$% dont settle
Be a man, stand tall on yo feet

Dont depend on nann mother$#&@er to eat
See momma gonna show you how to always have a hustle
Da streetz dont give it we gon get it on da muscle

You my son, Lil ^!$$% pay attention
Neva be the talker baby always just listen
^!$$%s gon reveal the hand

Its up to you to be the smarter man
Play chess,not checkers checkmate their $$#
Keep the mind of a warrior

Dot let these ^!$$%s have you in the coroner
In this world you gon see alot of pain
A whole lot of evil that I really cant explain

People gon change friends turn foes
^!$$%s turn fake , tell everything they know


[Chorus:]
If i had a son [x4]


[Verse 2:]
And I understand if you gotta sell crack man
Cus this country aint fit for the black man System so scandalous

Now in days misdemeanors get you Cali Dust
Hold yo head up You my lil king
Dont let nann motherf$#&@er crush yo dreams

Imma show you how to beat and break all odds
Teach you how away from all mobs
Imma teach you how to beat dem 48 Laws

Blood in my eyes in the odd of all
Teach you how to pray
Read yo bible, dont play

Read yo Psalms everyday
And dont chase no chick, no broad
Always wear a rubber never run up in dem raw

I know you aint here wit me now today but if I had you son this is wat I'd say

[Chorus]


[Verse 3:]
Rule #1: Always stay true

Rule #2: Respect who respect you
Rule #3: Pray for a sign
Rule #4: God is the only one that comes before yo momma

Rule #5: Always ride wit yo five
Rule #6: Neva call a girl a (*##$
Rule #7: Dont result in tellin, cus all rats get buried by da dozens

Rule #8: Respect yo weight, neva put more den a 7 in a 28
Rule #9: Keep a miltary mind
Dont slip make sure you always got an extra clip

Rule #10:Watch who you call yo friends
You gon see who yo friends when you need some mends.
I know you aint here wit me now today but if I had you son this is wat I'd say


[Chorus]
If i had a son [x4]
