[00:00:15] On top of the world

[00:00:16] Yeah you ever felt like you could do anything (Yeah)

[00:00:18] On top of the world

[00:00:20] It was 1996 4th of July looking off in the sky

[00:00:24] Dealing with thoughts inside

[00:00:24] When something caught my eye

[00:00:26] It was a silhoutte of a beautiful woman

[00:00:27] Bright with life

[00:00:28] Carrying my first seed

[00:00:29] Looking like she gone bear fruit tonight

[00:00:31] We at the African street festival

[00:00:32] And she walking around

[00:00:33] Talking about the midwife said

[00:00:34] that bring the baby down

[00:00:36] I'm about to be a father

[00:00:37] The sights and sounds

[00:00:38] Seem brighter around me

[00:00:39] And for starters

[00:00:40] I know I'ma work harder word

[00:00:42] We got home at three in the morning I was beat

[00:00:44] Them contractions started coming

[00:00:45] As soon as I fell asleep

[00:00:46] 3:05 like every five minutes

[00:00:47] Then the water broke

[00:00:49] We on the go yelling at the cabbie

[00:00:51] Cause he's sort of slow

[00:00:56] Trying to do c-sections

[00:00:57] But my baby stay's strong in labor for yay long

[00:01:25] Since the birth of my son

[00:01:26] It's been about way more then rhymes

[00:01:27] Baby on the way my lady glowing today at least

[00:01:30] That's what the midwife said on the phone

[00:01:31] Anyway the music got me going away

[00:01:33] Like everyday but it's a blessing

[00:01:34] So I gotta have patience

[00:01:36] And she got pregnant on a Jamaican vacation

[00:01:39] So it's all good this time well have the baby in a house

[00:01:41] I went the hospital route

[00:01:43] I know what they all about (Never again)

[00:01:44] So I'm out on tour in Baltimore

[00:01:46] Get the call around four

[00:01:47] When the water hit the floor (Damn )

[00:01:48] I gotta rock my show but I gotta go

[00:01:50] Got second thoughts about her not going

[00:01:52] To the hospital

[00:01:53] I left the show early Mos held me down

[00:01:55] Good looking (No doubt)

[00:01:56] Call the car service like

[00:01:57] Take me straight to Brooklyn (Uh huh)

[00:01:59] Got the news in the car stayed sorta calm

[00:02:00] But I cried tears of joy

[00:02:02] When they put my daughter in my arms how precious

[00:02:23] I do it for the seeds y'all

[00:02:25] In they formative years when they need y'all

[00:02:27] We gotta believe

[00:02:27] In what we conceive y'all it's deep y'all

[00:02:29] I give them the truth

[00:02:30] So they approach the situation with ammunition

[00:02:31] I keep nothing away

[00:02:32] They hear everything

[00:02:33] Cause they know how to listen

[00:02:34] Teach them the game

[00:02:35] So they know they position so they can grow

[00:02:37] And make decisions

[00:02:38] That change the world and break old tradition

[00:02:39] They put kids in jail

[00:02:40] For a life they ain't even get to start

[00:02:42] That's murder too and it's breaking my heart

[00:02:44] It's breaking our nation apart

[00:02:45] We gave the youth all the anger it's just

[00:02:47] We ain't taught them how to express it

[00:02:49] And so it's dangerous

[00:02:50] You can't talk to them

[00:02:51] Unless your language is relating to what they going through

[00:02:53] So busy ignoring them

[00:02:53] You can't see what they showing you

[00:02:55] And you wonder

[00:02:56] Why we called baby-daddy's and baby-momma's

[00:02:57] When we grow up

[00:02:58] We can't act like adult mothers and fathers yo

[00:03:00] I'm so blessed to have a boy and a girl

[00:03:02] Everyday they bring joy to my world

[00:03:04] Huh yeah
