Yeah
Just knowing you not here right now
And I can't see your face
I just be looking up at the stars sometimes
And say I want to see you smiling
I want to see you smiling
Remember every night I prayed when I seen you dying
Hard to go back to grave that just leave me crying
As a youth was breaking laws you would see me wilding
Now I look up at the stars just to see you smiling
Long as see you smiling
I been speaking with my heart sometimes it beats in silence
Even though we far apart and I need your guidance
I just look up at the stars and I see you smiling
Was a single mother on your own
Always told me chase my dream I could do no wrong
Growing up rapping in the house you would groove along
You would say the words back like you knew the song
Nights I cried for my momma she was in the cell
F*ck me up I had no money for the bail
Than she cried for me too when I went to jail
I Shouldn't have put her through that shit
Knew how that feeling felt
Making sure I ate at times you had spent your last
Got evicted from our place over rent that past
Remember all them days that I skipping class
I was plotting on some ways to make a mill in cash
This life gone pay the price
My mother told me something that was great advice
You broke now so niggas gone treat you different
So don't worry when you rich and gotta keep the distance
Remember every night I prayed when I seen you dying
Hard to go back to grave that just leave me crying
As a youth was breaking laws you would see me wilding
Now I look up at the stars just to see you smiling
Long as see you smiling
I been speaking with my heart sometimes it beats in silence
Even though we far apart and I need your guidance
I just look up at the stars and I see you smiling
So everyday reflect
How I seen my mother hustle just to make a check
Thats why my actions talking as i'm saying less
Speak my goals into existence let it take effect
Some niggas I can't respect
The ones who can't progress
Won't help they man's with less
Niggas are dropping records that diss me
Hate i'm blessed
But they they treat it like it's checkers
While i'm playing chess
Don't pay no mind I guess
Be forgetting half the time when they making threats
I know one thing on my mind that I ain't forget
How my momma gave me life can't repay the debt
Remember every night I prayed when I seen you dying
Hard to go back to grave that just leave me crying
As a youth was breaking laws you would see me wilding
Now I look up at the stars just to see you smiling
Long as see you smiling
I been speaking with my heart sometimes it beats in silence
Even though we far apart and I need your guidance
I just look up at the stars and I see you smiling
I see you smiling
I see you smiling
I just look up at the stars and I see you smiling
