Congratulations

Raised me, hmm
How can I hate on the nigga that raised me?
Wasn't proud of me
No, no, uh
Wasn't proud of me
Yeah, yeah
Oh no, no-no, no-no
Yeah

How can I hate on the nigga that made me but that nigga ain't raised me? (oh no)
You left my mama alone, was all on our own, I was just a baby (oh no)
And you know my mama was only 14 when she had me, she was a young lady (oh no)
Thinking 'bout all of the times that I cried, my nigga, that shit drove me crazy (oh no)
And my feelings kept tryin' to tell me, "Be patient" but man I got tired of waitin' (oh no)
You don't know how it feel only havin' one parent comin' to all of your graduations (oh no)
You was missin' on all of my birthdays, my nigga, you never made one little occasion (oh no)
I had me a kid last year and I ain't even hear you say, "Congratulations"

I'ma be a better dad than you's and I know you gon' respect it (oh, yeah, yeah)
I was out on the street alone, no guide, a nigga was young and reckless (yeah, yeah)
I remember seein' all of my friends with dads, they happy, that shit made me jealous (oh, oh)
There be times I be thinkin' like, "What I do wrong?"
It really be hurtin' to say this

Appreciate her, she carry, all I had was my mama (oh woah)
But she cannot teach everything a man can, no, I needed my father (oh woah)
I've been tryna find peace in my life but stacked in, fell in love with them commas (oh woah)
'Cause nobody can heal my pain, for real, moms will not even bother (yeah, yeah)
The pain so deep and shit, affected my music, yeah (woah, woah)
Them flashy bags been makin' me nod when I do it, yeah (woah, woah)
I don't know what I'm doin', I really been feelin' so clueless
How could do this? How could you do?
You left me stranded, I really been feelin' so worthless
Feel like I was born for nothin', I don't got a purpose
I needed you there and you wasn't there for me, ee, ee (for me, ee, ee)
