Where My Heart Is

(专辑： A World With No Skies 2.0 - 2011)

This goes out to my wife Erica
Who always holds me down, taking care of our son
This goes out to every mother out there
Whether you have a man in your life or you don't, trying to take care of a child

I know how hard it is to raise a child and this worlds ruthless You're tired all the time
You're starting to feel youthless
Together Mommy and Daddy
Well the truth is trying to make it work sometimes can be a nuisance
Especially if the fridge is never filled, the booth drips
And the boys growing out his clothes, do his shoes fit?
That's why I'm always going hard with this music
Cause I want my little man to have a good future
I put food on the table cause I'm able to
We got a nice place to live, cars and cable too
We went through our struggle but we made it through
And going back to having nothing I'm afraid to do
He got the best Mom and Nana and the best Grammy
Even though I know sometimes they can't stand me
There ain't nothing that means more than family
And I'm just trying to be the best man that I can be

I'm hoping that you'll understand what it means to me
(To know that you're there)
I give you my word as a man that you're where my heart is
('Cause this is where my heart is)

I have my issues they've been documented publicly
My wife knows it won't stop my son from loving me
She sees a side of me that the public doesn't see
But still society can judge, turn you ugly
I've been trying to do the right things suddenly
I remember just the way my Momma used to Mother me
And when the rain came left the ground puddly
I had the love she gave me walkin through the mud with me Maybe that's what save me from going crazy as a grown man
She taught me how to stand on my own damn
So when I think back I was never alone man
Now it's time for me to raise my own fam

I'm hoping that you'll understand what it means to me
(To know that you're there)
I give you my word as a man that you're where my heart is
('Cause this is where my heart is)

Got my home, got my fam, got my guard, got my plans
Hoping that my feet don't fail me now
Been traveling on this road a while
And I'll go (I'll go)
I'll go 'til I can't no more
From my heart I'll go (I'll go)
To see you live the life that you deserve to know

Son, you know you have roots with me and it grows deep
You're the reason I'm up all night working with no sleep
I'm still the same kid who used to live on O street
I'm still the same dude who believed what they told me
I watch my best friends die an OD and never shed a tear saying "oh no woes me"
I slept and did the crime with the nose bleed
I still have the vision they mostly don't see
Don't ever let nobody tell you that you won't be
And when you're lonely I'ma always be your homie
You're my little dude, I mean you're my little man I'ma always fight for you kid I'm never giving in

I'm hoping that you'll understand what it means to me
(To know that you're there)
I give you my word as a man that you're where my heart is
'Cause this is where my heart is, where my heart is
Where my heart is, my my heart
This is where my heart is
