Thank You Video (MV)

You know, I wanna dedicate this song right here to you
To let you know how much of an impact you had on me
I was turning seven when you came around
Remember how I kept on asking what's your name about, twenty times in row?
You maintained a smile, as you repeated your name to Shadonna's anxious child
Way before you had become her spouse
It was 2002, you were a blessing out of the blue, for my mother, you ain't just bounce
She had three little kids, when you met her, could've left her
And kept all of your cheddar in your bank account
But you stayed and gave us a place to stay, my sperm donor can't amount
To a man of your caliber, for most of my calendars you were there for me
My peers hate they step fathers but I can not relate to their stories
I never needed to go to the barbershop because you always had a chair for me
In the crib, and when I got in a jam and needed a hand, I'd hit you up and you'd say You'll be there shortly
I hate to talk to my biological father
I be feeling like I'm letting a stranger into your territory
I never doubted that you cared for me, because the actions spoke
You took on a humongous challenge and you haven't choked
Yo I look up to you
I'm glad my mother stuck with you
Because of you, I wasn't misguided like the other youth
Your wise words always kept me on the right track
Want you to know that I am proud to call you my dad
After all of these years you still care for me (Care for me)
I know whenever I need you, you will be there for me (There for me)
And I just want you to know that you're appreciated
To me you are the greatest man to ever be created
Thank you for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done, for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done
For me
Some of my favorite moments were when me
And you were cruising, cooling, listening to music
When you had that Buick
I feel like that's the way that we bonded, and every time I got in, your whip
I had to make sure that I had my iPod in my pocket
Was quick to plug the aux into the socket
Them days when we rolled around knocking Crucial Conflict
Props to you pops, I'm product, of all the knowledge, you be putting in my noggin
You showed us love while that other nigga walk around like he ain't got kids
And even though I got his, name
My loyalty to you will have them outsiders watching really thinking that I am not his
You are the true definition of what it means to be iconic
The greatest man that I have ever known
Me and my siblings, and my mother never missed a meal
Shit, we had a chef at home
I appreciate you
Watching the way you treat my mother, it made me be faithful
To my own woman
The biggest lesson that you ever taught me is how to be a man and handle business
Something that, that nigga Samuel didn't
I love you pops and I just wanna make you proud of me
Cuz you empowered me, when society was doubting me
After all of these years you still care for me (Care for me)
I know whenever I need you, you will be there for me (There for me)
And I just want you to know that you're appreciated
To me you are the greatest man to ever be created
Thank you for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done, for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done (Thank you)
Thank you for all you've done
For me
I love pops
I just want you to know that, without you, I don't know where I would be
