I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
Know that I'm still your son
I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
Oh mama, I'm coming home now
I know I've been gone for a minute
Hope I'll be forgiven
Been missing out of action
The lights, cameras been active
Cuz life hasn't been this good
My wife might be in my hood
My music been making movements
Movement been making music
Music meetings with homies
My feed is looking real pretty
Interviews of my inner views
Outer space feels within my reach
People think I'm famous
I don't know what I might do with me
Mama this is too fast
I remember seatbelts
I remember new kicks
And money when I would need help
Mistakes when I was foolish
But now I'm in the news and
My spirits feeling real tired
And I can hear you just telling me
Why don't you sleep a bit
Kick your feet up and eat a dish
Peep the tv and see the kids
Being easy and meet up with
Imee and Q for ice cream and
Make it a nightly thing
I can't sleep, this life is happening too quick
I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
Know that I'm still your son
I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
Mama don't worry your head
I'm coming back from the edge
Remember the hospital bed
Promised that I wasn't dead
How did you know
All that was destined ahead
Things that were coming my way
Favourite water sign making some waves
Rhythm, the medals will come
Autumn, the petals will fall
Winter, you just have to wait
Spring, you just gotta trust
Winners been losers most often
Papa be yellin' out got 'em
Know that you had to have fallen
For all it ever to blossom
I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
I used to call you up
You used to calm me down
We used to keep in touch
You used to kiss me soft
Know that I miss you lots
Know that you're still the one
Sorry I'm growing up
This was supposed to be a love song
I guess it's still a love song
I had to let the people know the reason that I love strong, yeah
That's why i work hard lately
Think that one day maybe
I'll return the favour
Show this life can't tame me
Know you raised a lion
I've been taking time and
Making my alignment
Blazing trails, my fire
Helps me stay inspired
Helps me vibrate higher
I ain't tryin' get hired
I've been tired of hiding
No, you feel me happy
Imma make this happen
Know you named me freedom
When you named me Francis
Yeah this world ain't for us
That's why i'm taking chances
Why I'm making music
That's gonna pave a path for
Little lions walking
Your grandchildren, mama
You know you showed me purpose
Living a life of service
You know you give me vision
When I can't see nothing
I'll make this name mean something
And you say
You know I'll call up
And I'll still calm you down
Imma check on you
And embarrass you
You know you make me proud
All it takes is one
I know you're growing seeds
That's why I call you sun
