Sword in the Stone

3 years old
Bags packed standing and waiting by the door
Crying out, Is he coming, but let's be real how could she know
You see my father left after my mother gave him troubling news
You see she knew about him creeping, so she did some creeping too
Possibilities of paternity is really what made him do
A full 180 out of the driveway what do you expect a man to do
When he finds out his love child might not be from his seed
No disrespect by any means but what does any of that mean
Fast-forward 10 plus have passed and now the boy is older
Searching everywhere for himself and to bring his life into order
The streets offer him money and a little bit of protection
He denied and then replied fellas you got the wrong perception
See, he wasn't known for moving weight helping homies to escape
That would have done some major time but the K-9 had lost the trace
Now he's in high school no ID but that still was cool
Cause he was charming to the ladies and on the field he had some moves
And even though he had the most wanted broad around
In his heart ya boy would still fill down
When will his day come
When will his day come

16 years old and the excitement is untamed
The day has come for him to learn exactly who he came
Calling DNA waiting to on her to back once again
Only to find out that the man his family said was just a friend
Was the man that used to show up to every one of his games
Thinking back on all the questions that circulated in his mind
Were forgotten, let's be honest
He was glad but it doesn't make-up for the time that was missed
But that don't matter cause the years ahead will ease his mind
Then falling in love with a new beauty and the music scene
Felling so serene, the only thing that would bring him peace, or so it seemed
That's when he was faced with a hard decision, why didn't you listen
Stay by her side or take this full ride that you've been given
Destiny is calling, a chance to change the way you're livin'
But being young and searching for love he made a choice that would only
Leave him with tears in his eyes, no surprise
But just when he thought that his life was over and needing closure
He found himself bowed on the alter losing all composure
Then it was clear that the king would not appear until he found Jehovah
And that's my sword in the stone
