Precious Moments (feat. Gabriel Q. Azevedo) Video (MV)

It took me a long time to get where I'm at
Skinny little white boy rocking a cap
As a matter a fact alot of my past I left behind
It left my mind it couldn't stand the test of time
Mom struggling to make ends meet
Working that 9-5 just to stay on her feet
Had dreams of breakin free from the poverty line
Asking mom how you doing hey son I'm doing fine
Tryna hide behind a smile but this boy ain't blind
No matter how shes really feeling gotta stay on the grind
One of a kind a woman really stuck in her ways
Teardrops are falling heavy as she prays for better days
Gotta be better a way than just tryna survive
There's gotta be a bigger meaning than just staying alive
I'm just hoping there's a God that's really hearing her cries
Knocked down so many times and she continues to rise
I wish I knew
To cherish moments that I had with you
I often think of you
Time has passed but I'll hold on to you
Oh oh oh oh oh
I Caused alot of trouble in my teenage years
Late nights and fist fights has got my mamma in tears
I had her living in fear
Scared her son had lost his way
Getting sick from the stress was the cost to pay
Couldn't see it but shes dying inside
The hurt in her eyes as I kept tryin to lie
About what I'm really doing out til 2 in the morn
While she never even realize I was soo far gone
So wrong for all the things I put this woman through
Living selfish I was helpless man what could I do
But it never slowed her down she kept on pushin ahead
Doin what she's gotta do to keep her kids well fed
The pain that she endures how much more can she take
Living this life unsure that she may ever get a break
For heavens sake she'll just keep on standing in faith
With patience runnin thin as she continues to wait
I wish I knew
To cherish moments that I had with you
I often think of you
Time has passed but I'll hold on to you
Oh oh oh oh oh
Now she's at the drs office diagnosis is grim
I keep thinking to myself man this can't be the end
There's gotta be another chapter in this book of life
She ain't looking right but she continues to fight
It's like every time I leave is this the last goodbye
I'm tryna stay strong so I just mask my cry
If there's really a God I wanna ask him why
He's been standing round watching as shes bout to die
I'm really confused tryna make sense of it all
Living my days in fear while awaiting the call
When I here the news she doesnt have much time left
Hoping I can make it there before she takes her last breath
It's time to rest mamma and make heaven your home
Surrounded by a crowd but I'm still feeling all alone
So hard to believe this is my reality
I just hope your smiling down on me and really proud of me
I wish I knew
To cherish moments that I had with you
I often think of you
Time has passed but I'll hold on to you
Oh oh oh oh oh
I wish I knew
To cherish moments that I had with you
I often think of you
Time has passed but I'll hold on to you
Oh oh oh oh oh
