If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got
Everything I got will be gone like that
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all
If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got (I got)
Everything I got will be gone like that (like that)
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all

This one goes out to my family, my rocks and my pebbles
My pet name sayers all my kinfolk vessels
I feel I don't say it enough Iove y'all
If it wasn't for your love and support it wouldn't work
I gotta do it for my daughter on my lap please
She looking at me got a smile for her pappy
It takes a village to raise kids
My village is a community full of africvillians now listen up
I wish I had a relationship with my lil' brother
Old Facebook messages say we miss each other
When we get the chance too we never talk
It's like we missing a link, it breaks my heart
We need stop for a minute
Embrace one another in and out of the clinic
Take the time to let your family arise
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine

If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got
Everything I got will be gone like that
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all
If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got (I got)
Everything I got will be gone like that (like that)
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all

Ayo, I got an uncle that I been to jail with
We used to make coffee in his friggin' cell
He used to tell me all the stories of my dad
And he would question me about my past, we was the same
I got an uncle prefers men, you go head
You talk 'bout em I'll bang heads, you so dead
I learn from him cause its hard as a man to cry
Even more when you bottle it up inside
I'm tryna be a lot easier on you 'neff
Your older cousin is thuggin' there's only you left
I'm tryna find what's inside me to change
Cause I feel I'm teaching you the wrong things
Play by play, one hour at a time
Take a second to remember that in a minute we'll be fine
Put them first and let your family decide
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine

If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got
Everything I got will be gone like that
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all
If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got (I got)
Everything I got will be gone like that (like that)
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all

If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got
Everything I got will be gone like that
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all
If I ain't givin' 'em all that I got (I got)
Everything I got will be gone like that (like that)
Before I start breaking the law I bringing back to you all
