Was It Worth It Lyrics

[Verse 1: Derek Minor]On birthdays and Christmas I used to have you on my wishlistHeld my son the first time, looked him in his eyeAnd thought to myself, what kind of fool would ever miss thisI ain't ask for you to sleep with mom and make mePlus I'm your blood, why would you leave, what was so importantThey told you smash broads roll up the weedI guess that buzz got you high enough to float over meI hope that every dollar that you made, every girl that you slayWhen you close your eyes at night, I hope you say it's all worth itEvery graduation, birthday, game that you missedI hope what you got instead make you feel it's all worth itBeing a father's expensive and its cost you may ignoreJust know me and your grandson is paying for itCan't ask myself what would dad do in hard times'Cus that means he'll be writing one of these rhymes[Hook: Crystal Nicole]All these hearts that you broke, all these lies that you toldAll this pain that you own, years all aloneNights away from home, tell meI hope it was worth it, was it worth itTell me was worth it, tell me was it really worth it[Verse 2: Lecrae]Listen, a lot of rap dudes never had a daddyThat's why we want approval from Nas like he familyBut, it ain't just Jermaine, it's Dre to The GameTo the Birdman saying that he's the father of Wayne, manWhat happened to us better yet what didn't happenNo happy family 'cus daddy left meDeep in this Valley, of the Shadow of DeathI'm felling the breath of repetitiveness on my neckAte me alive while daddy was getting highTrying to chase after something that I'm certain he'll never findWhen the whole time, he could have had my young mindSomewhere along the line I guess he spent up all his timeSent me this birthday card out of the blind, when I was nineInherited a bunch of of pain and some empty memoriesWishing that he picked me up from elementaryI wish he could have seen me on my graduationTaught me he to raise the son, and told me congratulations[Hook x2]
