To My Unborn Child (feat. Lynxx) - Banky W.

The second they laid you on my chest My heart as never beat the same I prayed and prayed And then the day finally came I got a SON A gift from God for all the pain And if I had to choose You know I'd do it all again Your hair was gold Son you were born with a crown You and your sisters the reasons why I'm still around But this songs for you so you will always know your worth And know I'm never ashamed of the child that I have birthed MY CHILD Want you to know you're the child of a queen I'll be by your side whatever life brings Know what's inside of you they can't take away There's power in your blood a DIVA'S DNA Want you to know you're the child of a queen I'll be by your side whatever life brings Know what's inside of you they can't take away There's power in your blood a DIVA'S DNA I have to laugh sometimes you should have been born a Gemini The side that love so hard And then the side that makes me cry I'd cry a million tears my love would never wash away Not even in the ground or before the lord on judgement day I'm sorry times were hard and we didn't have much growing up I did the best I could Continue to fight and never gave I went to church I even got a college degree I moved us out the hood to keep you safe and off of the streets I couldn't replace your dad but I tried to pour love in every place That his absence and time would leave an empty space I kept faith I know trouble don't last always And kept our heads up so you can see our brighter days MY CHILD Want you to know you're the child of a queen I'll be by your side whatever life brings Know what's inside of you they can't take away There's power in your blood a DIVA'S DNA Want you to know you're the child of a queen I'll be by your side whatever life brings Know what's inside of you they can't take away There's power in your blood a DIVA'S DNA I know life is hard I know sometimes you wonder why Your beautiful brown skin Makes you the target of so much crime You find no safety in the police or society As long as you are at war, you'll always have a soldier in me And when you have to cry because your mind is telling you lies Remember your never alone your sisters and I are by your side And yes Men cry That don't make um less of a man Let out the NEGATIVE so POSITIVE can fill your body again If you have to fight and nobody else a knuckle up It's at the drop of a dime We ready to ride no matter what I gave you tough love cause I had to get the point across Know what you go through is always a lesson and never a loss This life is business To move from a worker and into a boss Protect your peace of mind and guard your heart no matter the cost Don't ever wonder whose you are or where you belong Don't wonder loves you remember the words to this song MY CHILD You're WORTHY You're WORTH IT And YOU MATTER

To my unborn child (oh) To my unborn child (In case I don't make it) (Just remember, Daddy loves you) to my unborn child (There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you) (So don't worry about what people say) to my unborn (And your daddy love you, haha) Now ever since my birth, I've been cursed, since I'm born to wile In case I never get to holla at my unborn child Many things learned in prison, blessed and still livin' Tryna earn every penny that I'm gettin' I'm reminiscin' to the beginnin' of my mission When I was conceived and came to be in this position My mama was a Panther, loud single parent, but she proud When she witnessed baby boy rip a crowd Went to school, but I dropped out and left the house 'Cause my mama say I'm good for nothin', so I'm out Since I only got one life to live, God forgive me for my sins Let me make it, and I'll never steal again or deal again My only friend is my misery Wantin' revenge for the agony they did to me See, my life ain't promised, but it's sure gettin' better Hope you understand my love letter, to my unborn child I'm writing you a letter This is to my unborn child (to my unborn) Wanna let you know I love you (to my unborn child) (love you) If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn) (how I feel) 'Cause I think about you every day I have so much to say (to my unborn child) Seems so complicated to escape fate And you can never understand 'til we trade places Tell the world I feel guilty for bein' anxious Ain't no way in hell that I could ever be a rapist It's hard to face this cold world on a good day When will they let the little kids in the hood play? I got shot five times, but I'm still breathin' Living proof there's a God if you need a reason Can I believe in my own fate? Will I raise my kids in the right or the wrong way? Dear Mama, I'm a man now I wanna make it on my own, not a handout Make way for a whirlwind prophesized I wanna go in peace when I gotta die On these cold streets, ain't no love, no mercy and no friends In case you never see my face again, to my unborn child I'm writing you a letter This is to my unborn child (to my unborn child) (I'm writing you a letter) Wanna let you know I love you (to my unborn child) (love you) (oh, I love) If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn child) 'Cause I think about you every day (every day) I have so much to say Dear Lord, can you hear me? Tell me what to say to my unborn seed In case I pass away will my child get to feel love? Or are we all just cursed to be street thugs? 'Cause bein' black hurts, and even worse if you speak first Livin' my life as an Outlaw, what could be worse? 'Cause maybe if I tried to change Who'm I kiddin'? I'm a thug 'til I die; I'm a rider, mane Touch bases, eat lunch in plush places Regular criminal oasis awaits us If there's a ghetto for true thugs, I'll see you there And I'm sorry for not bein' there Just know your daddy was a soldier, Me Against the World Bless the boys and all my little girls To the Lord, I'm eternal, restin' in peace Please take care of all my seeds, to my unborn child I'm writing you a letter This is to my unborn child (to my unborn child) Wanna let you know I love you (please take care of all my kids and my unborn child) (I love you) If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn child) (how I feel) 'Cause I think about you every day I have so much to say (this letter goes out to my seeds) I'm writing you a letter, this is to my unborn child (that I might not get to see 'cause of this lifestyle) Wanna let you know I love you (just know your daddy loved you) Got nothin' but love for you (love you) (And all I wanted was for you to have a better life than I had) if you didn't know I feel this way ('Cause I was out there on a 24 hour 365 grind) I think about you every day (every day) (When you get to be my age, you'll understand) I have so much to say (Just know I got love for you) I'm writing you a letter (And I'll see you if there's a ghetto in Heaven) this is to my unborn child If there's a Ghetto Heaven, I'll be there waitin' for you (wanna let you know I love you) (Take care) if you didn't know I feel this way (Run wild, but be smart) 'cause I think about you every day (Follow the rules of the game) I have so much to say (every day) (I know sometimes there's confusion) I'm writing you a letter (Rules of the game is gonna get you through it all day every day) this is to my unborn child (Watch out for these snakes and fakes) wanna let you know I love you (Friends come a dime-a-dozen) (love you) If you didn't know I feel this way (be an individual) 'Cause I think about you every day (work hard, study) (Get your mind sharp) I have so much to say (trust nobody)

So dark and coldhearted I'm breathless to say the least So far from a superstar And my daydreams are killing me Feel like I'm losing my mind I'm never feeling okay Good days are so hard to find Just help me numb all the pain I'm only one step from dying (Only one step from dying) My angels keep it at bay (My angels keep it at bay) Can't blame the people for trying (Can't blame the people for trying) Just let me fall to my grave (Just let me fall to my grave) Just let me fall to my grave Losing my mind Just let me fall to my g- Losing my mind Just let me fall to my grave Heart feels under pressure Wonder if these bright days will last forever So pessimistic from the past All the good things end up in baskets I'm never feeling OK Good days are so hard to find Just help me numb all the pain I'm only one step from dying (Only one step from dying) My angels keep it at bay (My angels keep it at bay) Can't blame the people for trying (Can't blame the people for trying) Just let me fall to my grave (Just let me fall to my grave) Just let me fall to my grave Losing my mind Just let me fall to my g- Losing my mind Just let me fall to my grave
