Child (Explicit)

When I was just a child I didn't know much about

I was just a child I didn't know much about ooh

I had a father who came from nothing

He took that and he made it something

He'd seen it all by his 21st right

His mum and dad both left this earth why

It was the drinking that killed his mother

He's watching the same thing kill his brother

And he doesn't say it much but he really loves us

And he doesn't want the same thing to kill his sons

When he sees me with a drink in my hand

I understand now why he thinks that it's bad

Cause he knows that it's so evil

But he knows we're our own people so he lets us go

When I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

I was just a child I didn't know much about ya ooh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh ohh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh ohh

I was just a child I didn't know much about ya ooh

See I don't know if God's real

But if he is I can image how God feels

And there's things I'd discuss with him

I bet he wouldn't change much

But there's sh*t he would have done different

When my grandpa passed away

I remember saying bye on his last few days

And I'm hoping there's a heaven

I want to meet again

And I never met anybody as positive as him

Not many were as sick as him

But he didn't let the illness kill his grin

And that's why I went ahead and inked my skin

Cause I remember the smile when I think of him

When I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh

I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh oh oh

I didn't know that my brother got bullied in school

If I could go back now I wouldn't be fooled

He probably thought mum and dad don't f**king care

But it wasn't even that they were so unaware

Living in a family where money is favored

Makes us wanna say I f**kin' hate it

Brother though we gotta feel blessed as f**k

Just remember they only want the best for us

We got a mum that's an angel I'm thankful

To even have her in my life I'm grateful

Family is anybody that close to you

See this song right here it is overdue

For you

When I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh ohh

Now I know now I know now I know oh oh ohh

I was just a child

I didn't know much about ya ooh ooh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
