n spire
what kind of man do you want to be
i was hoping you could tell me
i’m only 18
ain’t no role model for a humble king
[verse 1]
you don’t understand i’m a prodigy
i hope i don’t get lost on this odyssey
god made love through the thought of me
hate to be corrected by the thought of greed
every great king need a better queen
but you only got you when you in the ring
but try to see the beauty in the little things
but i wanna see my name on the big screen
but can i get a taste of the limelight
just try to stay balanced like i’m on a beam
but i’m a man of my word right
try to
tell me whats wrong
tell me whats right
god
but some nights can my tears be my lullabies
[bridge 1]
(oh, i see . . . i don’t count around here no more. you ain’t got to say excuse me to your daddy. all of a sudden you done got so grown that your daddy don’t count around here no more . . . around here in his own house and yard that he done paid for with the sweat of his brow. you done got so grown your daddy don’t even count around here watchu gonna do take over? huh? you gonna take over my house. you gonna wear my pants. you gonna go in there and stretch out on my bed. you ain’t got to say excuse me because yo daddy don’t count around here no more. is that right?) that’s right
[verse 2]
never said that i was perfect
but i’m d-mn sure certain
been searchin for my purpose
and you know i been workin
been seekin out my blessings
askin god for a message
and i need to trust him but
i got so many questions
like
does it matter if you wealthy?
or does it matter that you love wealth?
if the ends don’t justify the means just know that the man truly meant well
if a man does a legend
what part of his legacy remains untold?
these days p-ssin by and i’m only growin old
remember my name because every man’s gotta go
untold
[bridge 2]
you always talking this dumb stuff. now, why don’t you just get out my way. (i guess you got someplace to sleep and something to put in your belly. you got that, huh? because that’s what you need. you got that, huh?) you don’t know what i got. you ain’t got to worry about what i got. (you right! you one hundred percent right! i done spent the last seventeen years worrying about what you got. now it’s your turn, see? i’ll tell you what we do. you grown . . . we done established that. you a man)
[verse 3]
shoutout to the man that never left
cuz every young man needs a mentor
fathers day don’t mean enough these days
gotta learn to take the curves with the straights
respect and pray
every good man takes care of his family
then its faith the only way to keep his sanity
and my faith the only way to make a man of me
okay
growin up no blueprint
role models never really come around much
mom pullin the weight i gotta man up
don’t hold a grudge just show me love
man
tell me you love me
tell me you hate me
tell me you’re proud i haven’t heard that lately
give me a hug man
give me a spanking
look in the mirror like what did you make me
[bridge 3]
(now, let’s see you act like one. turn your behind around and walk out this yard. and when you get out there in the alley . . . you can forget about this house. see? ’cause this is my house. you go on and be a man and get your own house. you can forget about this. ’cause
this is mine. you go on and get yours ’cause i’m through with doing for you.) oh what you done for me what you ever done for me! (them feet and bones! that pumping heart, n-gg-! i give you more than anybody else is ever gonna give you.) you ain’t never gave me nothing! you ain’t never done nothing but hold me back afraid i was gonna be better than you
lord save my soul
lord save my
what kind of man do you want to be
i was hoping you could tell me
just turned 18
no role models for a humble king
what kind of man do you want to be
uh
what kind of man do you want to be
[outro]
(i’m sorry, will.) actually, this works out better for me. the slimmies this summer come to cl-ss wearing next to nothing. (will, it’s all right to be angry.) hey, why should i be mad? at least he said goodbye this time. i just wish i hadn’t wasted my money buying this stupid present
(i’m sorry. if there was something that l…) you know what, you ain’t got to do nothing, uncle phil. it ain’t like i’m still five years old. ain’t like i’ll be sitting up every night asking my mom, “when’s daddy coming home?” who needs him? he wasn’t there to teach me how to shoot my first basket, but i learned and got pretty good at it too. (yeah.) got through my first date without him. i learned how to drive, i learned how to shave, how to fight. i had 14 great birthdays without him. he never even sent me a d-mn card. to h-ll with him! i didn’t need him then and i don’t need him now. (will…) you know what, uncle phil? i’m gonna get through college without him. i’ll get a great job without him. i’ll marry a beautiful honey, have a bunch of kids and be a better father than he ever was. i don’t need him for that, because there ain’t a d-mn thing he could ever teach me about how to love my kids. how come he don’t want me, man?
