lirik lagu anthony j. shears - if only you knew

if only you knew

whatever happened to them old school love songs

you know, the ones where you let the people you love and appreciate

know that you love and appreciate them

i kinda like them old school love songs

let’s bring those back

if you only knew

i just want you to know

if you only knew

i just want you to know

in the back of my mind i can remember the time

and momma i still remember all them nights you was crying

november 12th a black queen gave birth to a seed

that was born to move mountains and to follow his dreams

an empty promise plus a baby equals a broken heart

and momma, i know you carry all them scars on your heart

i know despite the odds you did the best you could

i know that if you could change it all deep down you would

you was so young

had a son

pressure probably weighed a ton

fathers …

depression left you feeling numb

plus welfare bought a ship we didn’t want

seein’ everybody else flaunt but you told us not to front

you gotta know, oh girl, from the depths of your soul

your fire helps me navigate a world so cold

if honesty be my only curse

i know i probably made it worse but forgive me with this verse

nana since you p-ssed i feel empty inside

the thought of life without you

how am i supposed to survive

for as long as i can remember you’ve been by my side

helpin’ me be a man and on the day you died

i cried

felt powerless

but what could i do

every time i had a problem you got me through

taught me strength, taught me honor, taught me to be sincere

stood me up on my own feet and made me face my fears

i used to write my little raps in the bathroom mirrors like

nana this is a song that i want you to hear

taught me never to be ashamed ‘cuz my pain is god’s gift

my birth a prayer answered for a young prophet

you wanted to fix me porridge

i wanted to pay your mortgage

wanted to buy you things but i just couldn’t afford it

well nana look your baby boy here now with an angel on my shoulders ain’t no fear now

some people search all their lives to find what i found

and what i do i make you cry

i struggle but listen baby girl i do understand

watching tears fall from your eyes don’t make me a man

i get dressed i’m out the door acting like i don’t care

say leave if you wanna leave but i need you there

nightly

back and forth over my same old nonsense fighting

but your tears are like a tunnel to my conscious

i’m too greedy

too needy to love you

too focused on success

too obsessed with the hustle

too into runnin the streets cuz that’s all i know

too afraid to say so cuz you just might go

please know

that despite my sh-t we building together

as real as what’s on my arm always and forever

despite what we might go through

my heart belongs to you girl if you only knew
