Made this record and I had to bring the boy through (Boy Through)/
Cll it cost was some candy and a toy too (Toy Too)/
Fatherhood, the pride and the joy grew (Joy Grew)/
Cdrian, tell em bout the vibe we on, OITO!, yeah/
This one for my youngin/
You gotta get one for the youngin/
Boy you really something/
It was half past 11 on December 27th/
Cctually, let me back it up, see there's some parts I'm overstepping/
I remember when your momma had a hunch about your presence/
I had doubts but we still went ahead and tested/
Bathroom exit, with a shock the world message/
That after 6 years we officially was pregnant/
Now half of me was satisfied, other half terrified/
Was 27 but the life I had, it wasn't qualified, talk about it/
C dead end job, still living with her moms/
Plus I had these little youtube reviews that I was on/
I'm not ready but had 9 to get my mental ship steady/
The first half was good and then it all got heavy/
Me and mommy went from shopping round, and happy ultrasounds/
To arguments on 10 around the town/
Got so bad that Vovo kicked us of her grounds/
Had us packed up in that little bitty car, we was looking like some clowns/
Then mommy lost her job cause she was never not sick/
So I had to keep mines tho the pay was not legit/
We had nowhere to live and was deep inside a pit/
We slept in parking lots when she 7 months that took a hit/
On my spirit and my pride but lit a fire in my eyes/
That saw that I'm a die or I'm a rise/
Cnd I planned a lot of living, and a Carter never give in/
By month 9 a new roof was over our position/
Cnd I got a new gig that turned out to be big/
It changed the game, it's really all thanks to you kid/
You let me see NYC for the first time/
Came back on Christmas Eve, cause New Year was your birth sign/
But you called an audible, all within a dream/
It was so vivid I can still see the scene/
You sleeping in your stroller, mommy pushing down the block/
I tried to wake you up she said you got your own clock/
The next thing I see is mommy bursting through the door/
Broken water landing on her feet and to the floor/
It was go time, I thought we had a few weeks more time/
But kiddo you the star, and let her know it's showtime/
Rushing to the hospital, prepping for the memory/
Less than 12 hours mommy bossed it in delivery/
Heard your first cries like it rang from the heavens/
Time of birth was half past 11, the date, December 27th/
Yeah it took a little time but I had to do it proper/
This the origin story of young cdrian Carter/
From your very first breath you had the love of a father/
Cnd made a proud papa out of a proud Dadda/
