Worthy
Spirulina in my water my affairs in order
'Bout to marry Larry Voss only daughter
In a minute, I'm a grown man with a game plan
Don't wanna be an old man with the same plans
Gotta make positive moves progressive in thought
As a young'n was taught to move aggressive and fought
Any thoughts of sharing space with another
Or placin' my trust in anyone besides my brother, I'm still adjustin'
I ain't accustomed to checkin' in
I recommend you holla at my next of kin he'll tell you ain't no pressin' him
Rather be by myself than be bothered
Until somebody call you father, what an honor bestowed
On your life, only hoping that I'm worthy
Stay sturdy and guide him on his journey
Teach him how to be a boss
It's hard to teach what you was never taught
I'm learning on my walk
To the millions of black men time to travel within
Find the god in yourself, treat your brother like kin
The time's half past crucial in a land where they shoot you
Might as well be the opps if you neutral
Draw a line, pick a side
Are you the people or you the anti, cause I can't watch another man die
Is we nation building? Is we raising children?
Or we chasing millions, selfish in our ways
Taught by the ones who enslaved the same ones
Who lock my guys in a cage capitalize on our rage
Monetizing our names
Making more if we land in the grave prematurely
Surely, I learned lessons from elders that came before me
My brothers in the trenches repeating the same story
Another King lost with potential
Who never learned the fundamentals
'Bout to marry Larry Voss only daughter
In a minute, I'm a grown man with a game plan
Don't wanna be an old man with the same plans
Gotta make positive moves progressive in thought
As a young'n was taught to move aggressive and fought
Any thoughts of sharing space with another
Or placin' my trust in anyone besides my brother, I'm still adjustin'
I ain't accustomed to checkin' in
I recommend you holla at my next of kin he'll tell you ain't no pressin' him
Rather be by myself than be bothered
Until somebody call you father, what an honor bestowed
On your life, only hoping that I'm worthy
Stay sturdy and guide him on his journey
Teach him how to be a boss
It's hard to teach what you was never taught
I'm learning on my walk
To the millions of black men time to travel within
Find the god in yourself, treat your brother like kin
The time's half past crucial in a land where they shoot you
Might as well be the opps if you neutral

Making more if we land in the grave prematurely
Surely, I learned lessons from elders that came before me
My brothers in the trenches repeating the same story
Another King lost with potential
Who never learned the fundamentals
