[intro]
uh
we gon’ take this sh~t from the top
ain’t no rewind
take your time, shorty, take your time
uh
take your time, shorty, take your time
yeah… (uh)
no need to rush, embrace the grind
[verse 1]
uh
your mom and dad want you to have your own style
just following another n~gga’s footsteps is wild
your dad and mom want you to have your own mind
mind your business, write your own book, we’re all one of a kind (uh)
excelling at winning, that’s what dedication brings
don’t let ’em trick you out your education, king
knowledge is self, it’s a elevation thing
boxed in, fighting your way up out the segregation ring (uh)
half of these n~ggas tough out here going insane
hoodrats need the winter to fall, summer to spring (yeah)
your times have changed, so oil cans ain’t nothing sl!ck
so don’t go taking medicine if you ain’t sick (nah)
sometime, you’re judged off the company that you with (uh)
information’s a weapon, keep your brain a loaded clip (pow!)
my generation got smacked when you overlipped
for f~cking up, you got punished mental, you’re ass~whipped
we’re culturally bias, it’s time to break the tradition (the tradition)
don’t go pick on n0body because they different (’cause they different)
don’t go judging n0body over religion (religion)
respect your elders, they are open book of wisdom
it don’t take nothing to listen, don’t get caught up in the system
dawg, it’s cool to read a book, there’s so much more than television
recognise who shows you real love, so you can tell who isn’t
i was out there blinded like you, pardon my reminiscing (yeah!)
[hook 1]
coming up around here, you gotta be strong
the moment one dies, a baby’s born
don’t rush to grow up, same time, don’t take too long (uh~uh!)
one wrong move, it could be gone, n~gga (yeah!)
uh, take your time, queen, take your time
there’s nothing real as a flatline (uh)
take your time, queen, take your time
(take your time)
[verse 2]
a single parent beats an orphan, he can grow to make you proud
just ’cause his father’s full of it, don’t take that sh~t out on your child (nah)
regret is more than you can carry, i can vouch
the government helps you out, long as the daddy’s out the house
don’t put your dignity under n0body’s wealth
these n~ggas won’t disrespect you, you learn to respect yourself (uh~uh)
why compare your situation to someone else?
so many opinionated, how many of ’em gon’ help? (who?)
don’t let them nosey ass, unemployed and immature
insecure b~tches in a sp~ce they never been before
why would you care they count you out? you never seen ’em score
it’s never over, long as you can wake up, you can dream some more (yeah!)
envy is one thing for sure, two things for certain
your girls don’t got no job, and you the one they working (yeah)
clouded their vision with addys, xannies and percs and
soon as a camera is pointed at you, you twerkin’
[hook 2]
coming up around here, you gotta be strong (yeah)
the moment one dies, a baby’s born
don’t rush to grow up, same time, don’t take too long (uh~uh!)
one wrong move, it could be gone, n~gga
uh, take your time, king, take your time
(uh) there’s nothing real as a flatline
take your time, king, take your time
(take your time)
[verse 3]
uh
part of a dad’s responsibility’s protection
don’t let the gangstas steer your kid the wrong direction (uh)
take time to bond with ’em, necessary connection (yeah)
he’ll never have respect for someone who neglects him (never)
you comfortable being a deadbeat, you’re a mess (mess)
all this time and still worried ’bout getting fresh (what?)
moment you have a child, all your wants should be less (less)
make sure they’re kept up, monitor how they text (uh)
watch who they run with, peer pressure’s the biggest threat
what’s next, a spirit mitten with liquor and cigarettes
not being near when they need you’s gotta be scary, see
coming up with a father figure a rarity
open your mind, all you get is food for thought from me
he need your presence, don’t substitute time with money
soon as he makes his own money, he won’t have time
and you’ll be spending yours trying to look for something you can’t find
[hook 3]
coming up around here, you gotta be strong
the moment one dies, a baby’s born
don’t rush to grow up, same time, don’t take too long
one wrong move, it could be gone, n~gga
take your time, take your time
there’s nothing real as a flatline
take your time, take your time
(no need to rush, embrace the grind) uh
