lirik lagu tim saunders - tim saunders
[intro]
-humming the tune of me and your mama by childish gambino-
[verse 1]
my daddy name was tim, gave me the same name as him
if you never heard the name, i guess you don’t know cambridge then
he ain’t let me win no games of nothing, boy, he played to win
20 years and 9 months of my life feel like it came and went
lot of people never have their dad around and that’s a fact
and i hate to say this part, but especially when you black
meanwhile, i got calls from out the blue like “timmy where you at
and who you with and why you there and boy what time you coming back?”
told me all the same things till they was ingrained in my mind
i used to get annoyed, but now i wanna hear him one more time
told me all his plans for the future d-mn near every day
and said don’t know how much time i got left, i’m gone make sure you straight
[bridge 1]
and i ain’t gotta tell you cause you know you right
mom said i was a kid, became a man like overnight
i ain’t gotta tell you cause you know you right
momma said i was a kid, became a man like overnight
[hook 1 x2]
my daddy told me
don’t you ever change yourself for no one
don’t you ever take no sh-t from no one
you kind, but don’t let em play you
cause that ain’t how i made you
nah that ain’t how i raised you
oh son
homeboy you still got a lot to go, son
you the baby boy you ain’t the grown one
but you growing on up, ain’t you?
i know that’s how i made you
i know that’s how i raised you
[verse 2]
a few weeks ago we was at canvasback
that open mic, i thought you’d talk to someone and stand in the back
but you was right in front the stage, right in front the whole d-mn crowd
my last time performing for you and i know i made you proud
when i made that dean’s list in the spring, i know i made you proud
and i ain’t gone stop making you proud just cause you ain’t around
and you always told me, “you get mad all you want
but i’m gone tell you what to do and you gone miss it when i’m gone”
[bridge 2]
and i ain’t gotta tell you cause you know you right
mom said i was a boy, became a man like overnight
i ain’t gotta tell you cause you know you right
momma said i was a boy, became a man like overnight
[hook 1]
[hook 2]
i can hear him saying
don’t you ever change yourself for no one
don’t you ever take no sh-t from no one
i’m gone, but don’t let em play you
cause that ain’t how i made you
cause that ain’t how i raised you
and i guess now you really grown son
and i hope you p-ss it down to yo son
make sure you tell him how i raised you
and tell him how i made you
yeah tell him how i made you
