lirik lagu jahaziel - makings of me

[intro]
they say what don’t break you will make you (that’s what they say)
my mum used to say, if you don’t hear then you must feel, ye believe that
this one just goes out to all those who helped me get here, those who were helping me get there, ye (let me take you back)

[verse 1]
from the waters burst
nurse wasn’t sure first
told mum prepare for the worse
she’s headed for a premature birth
pops stared at his wife
with tears in his eyes
she’s near to sparing her life
prepare for the cesarean knife
ye they had to open her up, she did it
that’s why i’m here to show her what’s up, don’t get it
twisted at all, i know i didn’t always listen at all
but i seen how you given your all, and i
hope it’s all been worth it
cause you know me
i wasn’t the easiest child to work with
i know that i was far from perfect
sometimes you spoke a language of love i found hard to interpret
but i understand now i’m grown
a man can stand on his own
a man’s land is his home
when a man’s fam is his throne
and a real man will handle his own
i learned that from your words and the example you shown
mum you flown home to jamaica now
i pray this debut alb-m will make you proud
dad you wasn’t always around to raise your child
but i’m grateful how you still gave a great amount
ye i seen my fair share of rough living
still i gotta give thanks for my upbringing
cause what life could of been i will never know
but god works all things together for my better so
[hook]
if you see me on the ends doing fine
just know i coulda been up in the pen doing time
though you might see my countenance shine
know i still got mountains to climb
but thank god that his word is faithful
for this i’m eternally grateful
and now i see
it’s not just where the journey takes you
it’s the man that the journey makes you

[verse 2]
i wasn’t raised in the church
i was raised on street life
and i seen the ways that it works
i’m no stranger to pains and hurts
tried to escape the curse by blazing the herbs but
i found out the cycle get high then get low
keeps going round like vinyl
and it’s going on a downward spiral
couldn’t find a way out till i found the bible!
shout to simon for being a witness
meeting me in my crib and just reading me scriptures
and that’s the reason i writ this
i just wanna say bless to all my brothers and peace to my sisters
cuz without these people i wouldn’t be here
ye gotta give a shout to the people who couldn’t be here
like my cousin carl and my boy ashley
mike griffis aunt sharon and lil alfy
to my grandfather and my girl marsha
young or old they made such early departures
it’s hard to express but you p-ssed and the death
told me to value the time i got left yes
it’s such a valuable blessing getting practical lessons
at calvary chapel from robert patrick and efrem
in fact big thanks to all of my pastors
wayne malcolm .. joe francis
thanks to dennis .. shout to noel and sharon
for loving me when some loved only my talent
much love to the man dem in greenjade
without them i probably would have never been saved
at times man i thought i would never see change
but thanks to my wife nadine cuz she prayed
and the names go on and on
i got a list way too long to say in this song
but i gotta stand and pay respect to the fam that made me the man i am today
truthfully i’m just fruit from the true vine was blind but now the dude can see
i’m not saying that the truth is me i’m just saying i’m grateful cuz i ain’t what i used to be
