Elijah's Song

I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine
I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine

You gave me old school love while I was growing up
Pepto bismol for my stomach when I'm throwing up
Anytime I ever need you, know you're showing up
Couple wounds, but you taught its part of growing up

Taught us to stick together, bet they learned not to fuck with us
I'm sorry mama, I lose passion when I cannot cuss
To get my point across, seven of us had fifty niggas
Still ain't take no loss, and didn't need the law

I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine
I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine

Dear mama, took that line from Pac to let you know
Put it in song cause my writing so unlegible
Remember them poems that you wrote, I used to read them through
Break down the lines, try to understand you're thinking too

Flaws in all your grandkids will look up to you
The flaws in all your damn kids still look up to you
Them painful nights in them cell you told me write them through
And when I step outside them gates become a better you

I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine
I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine

Dear father, not many can say they have a you
Flaws in all, I always wanted to be like you
Disagree on some things but still see it through
They tell me most of my appearance is made up of you

Lose my temper quick, they tell me I'm a younger you
When I was younger I remember being stuck to you
You say you're going for a ride, I say I'm going too
For you to think I do not love you so uncomfortable

I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine
I hope you don't miss the signs
Cause your heart's a big part of mine
