UNCLE DUTIES

Love will carry us
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us
Yea
Hope this is enough

Since 16 I been on Uncle Duties
Changing diapers and wiping booties
Missed the game cause I was watching Disney movies

2011 Sent straight from heaven
Dawg my niece is here
Crazy to think how old you'll be this year

Seems like it was just yesterday
I was bleaching the house
Scrubbing them walls
Anxious for the moment
That I get that call

That you coming home
Put you to sleep I used to sing you a song
2, 000 Pictures of your face in my phone
Swear the time done just flown

Still you're growing
And I'm just happy to see it
First one to make me a uncle
And I'm happy to be it
Still can't believe it

Grew up fast but you made me mature
As I look back you're what I needed for sure

Hated to leave you
And through them years
I know you hated the distance
But if you need me i'll be there in an instance
Here for any assistance

Around the world just know my love don't stop
Til I drop, made it my job
I'll be punching the clock
With uncle duties

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

2013 Another blessing came
Looking just like your daddy
And you took on his name

Anything that was healthy
Then we was open for
But to be honest you're the boy
That we was hoping for

Everybody ecstatic but us especially
Cause you're the one that get to carry out the legacy

Hope when your time come
That you keep the tradition going
You gon do great when you get older
I'm already knowing

4 Year later your brother's born
In '17 now we got Kire
His got skin tone and big head like me

Heard you right through the door
You'd be crying and then crying some more
Your daddy tired I can see it for sure

So I step in with ease
Pampers, bottles? Let me know what need
In fact I got him dawg, just give him to me
Gon and get you some sleep

2 AM make you a bottle to eat
You my arms til you fall back to sleep
You and me
On uncle duties

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Sit in my thoughts
And then just think
When I'm alone

So many things to look back on
Now that I'm grown

How my life was as a kid
And all the fun that I would with all my uncles

Video games, picking their brains
Crack a joke we laugh and chuckle

Was days
The store got chili cheese with them lays
I got some money but you still wanna pay
Well ok

Pay attention
Now I see life within their position
And as I go on my mission
To join my uncles I mention

Reggie, David, both the Jerry's
Thomas, chuck and uncle terry

Man just look how far I came
One in the sky for uncle Wayne

Aye man I thank y'all
This song for that days that we can't call
Try to follow your examples and repay y'all

To my niece and nephews that I have
Tailyn Trae and Kire
Hope I'm that uncle that you need me to be

And to my patnas kids that call me uncle
Even tho we ain't blood
It's all the same know that y'all got my love
Forever on uncle duties

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
Love will carry us

Innocence and love
For the little ones
Hope this is enough
