Peter Kings - Letter to Pops Lyrics

Oh man
I guess we really going in on this one huh
This one's for you Pops
I still remember you and moms getting divorced
I was a little youngin', I was probably like four
Or maybe I had turned five so I remember it more
My moms and sisters was crying when you walked out of that door
I couldn't understand why my pops gotta leave
Is he going on a trip, tell me where he's bout to be
I seen em like two days later, he looked at me
Said he'd always be there for me, he just had to leave the scene
I said it's all good, like I had another choice
Monday through Thursday on the phone I would hear your voice
Friday you would pick me up, you had ya son rejoiced
Watching tv late at night, you and I we the boys okay
You would drop me back at home Sunday night
Taught me always keep that head up, everything's alright
Then I started getting older, moving different we would fight
Cause every conversation you and I have, you think you right uh
But I don't always agree
Honestly I don't think I need college or a degree
You tried to push me for something better, that's something I see
But when are you gonna see that ya sons an MC, uh
Yo this a letter to my Pops but in song form so it pops
(But in song form so it pops)
Yo this a letter to my Pops but in song form so it pops
(But in song form so it pops)
I was 13 years old when I first got arrested
Smoking marijuana with my homie I ain't learn my lesson
Cause it done went and happened four more times, I had you stressing
I know I ain't perfect Pops, mistakes all through my adolescence
And you still giving me yo presence
Birthday come around, you still giving me a present
Christmas come around, you still acting like parent
Putting a blue crispy hunnid dolla bill in my hand, you so caring
Even though you really don't be showing it
You the definition of tough love but I roll with it
Cause I got homies who ain't ever met they dad n shit
How you walk this Earth and you don't know ya kid, that's sad as shit
Damaging to a young growing boys character
The biggest blessing you ever gave me was staying there
30 minute drive from me but to this day you laying there
Even got the key to ya house, this type of love is rare
No I don't always agree
Honestly I don't think I need college or a degree
You tried to push me for something better that's something I see
But Ima need you to see that ya sons an MC, uh
Yo this a letter to my Pops but in song form so it pops
(But in song form so it pops)
Yo this a letter to my Pops but in song form so it pops
(But in song form so it pops)
I love you pops
I know I don't say it enough
But just know I appreciate everything you ever done for me
I promise I'm gon make it
Yeah
Peter Kings baby
Yeah
