Prestige - Momma y Padre

I wish I could repay you
But there's not even gold in the world
So I'll just say thank you

1, 2, 3, 4, come on
Yea, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, yea yea
What's up Mama, I love you

Yo, right now I'm 30,000 feet in the air
I was thinkin' the other day
How you always been there
Told me to be never be scared
Always to be prepared
Stay prayed up and to hang on in there
Love everybody
Go be somebody
Be confident but boy don't you ever be snobby
Trust in God but don't ever think that you too Godly
Dare to be different boy
You're an original not copy
I'm becomin' man
Time to wake up and smell the coffee
The skies the limit, only me can stop me
I am tryna figure it out, man step by step
I am lucky you're by my side
Nahh, scratch that I'm blessed
You and Pops was hard on me, that's true
But a heavy helpin' hand is what I needed to get through
So I'm on my way to greatest
Yo, and it's all because of you
Without ya in my life, I don't know what I'd do

I wish I could repay you
But there's not even gold in the world
So I'll just say thank you
Thank you
Thank you
I love you Mama
I love you Mama yea yea yea
I wish I could repay you
But there's not even gold in the world
So I'll just say thank you
Thank you
Thank you

You know I ain't forget about you Pops
Yea, let's go
Hey, come on yea, come on yea

Look, I call Pops "Padre"
How apropos cuz you my birth father but you so much more
You always been there to pray for your son
My coach, my number fan
Yo my real day one
Never left me off the hook
Even when I was shook
Yo you kept me in the gym
And off the streets like crook
You always stayed on my tail
That probably kept me out of jail
Yo I'm grateful for you Pops even more than I can tell
Thanks for sticking it out
Not too many boys got they Dads around
And even fewer show em how to hold it down look
Every inch is great and your word is your bond
We different people
But we got the same name like James Bond, what's up
Yea yea

You're the greatest man that I know, know, know, know, know, know, know
I just wanna be close to ya
Don't ya know, know, know, know, know, know
In the way that I think
In the way that I act
In the way that I speak
Yea yea yea yea
I just wanna be close to ya

I just wanna be close to ya
I just really really wanna be close to ya
Yea yea
Yea yea
I just wanna be close to ya
I just really really wanna be close to ya
(I just wanna be, be close to ya, yea)
Yea yea

(Can I sing it again now)
I just wanna be close to ya
(I just wanna)
I just really really wanna be close to ya
Yea yea

(How I'm supposed to be
Close to ya
Close to me)

Mom and Dad I just want to say that I love you so much
As I get older, every single day, I realize the importance
That you guys have in my life
And the impact that you have made in me
And that have shaped me into the man
That I am becoming today
So, thank you thank you thank you
I can never repay you for any of the things that you've done
But just know, I'm livin' to make you proud
What up, 100, yea
