Tell Victory I Love Him Lyrics

[Intro: Sam Cooke]
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I've been runnin'
Ever since
It's been a long
A long time comin', but I know
A change gon' come
Oh, yes it will

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I ain't afraid to die, I done died already
God come and get me I promise I am ready
Matter fact hold on I gotta show my son I'm heavy
Gotta show his mom I love her, but life won't let me
They changed on me it's cool, get out my way for more success
I ain't speaking to the family got me seein' my granny less
I know I'm hurt, I ain't' happy, other people think I'm blessed
I know I make this shit look easy but let me tell you 'bout this stress
And this money don't solve nothing, all it do is bring more problems nigga trust me
(?) you a blessing on my momma nigga lucky
We was just bestfriends now you don't know me you don't wanna touch me
And I blame it on my ways I ain't happy pray for me
And I ain't talked to (?) I'm droppin' tears my mind racin'
I know I should get over it, life short but that shit hurt me
Know a lot of shame, I know that it all come with the game, I know that it all come with pain [Chorus: Sam Cooke]
I was born by the river
In a little tent
Oh, and just like the river, I've been runnin'
Ever since
It's been a long
A long time comin', but I know
A change gon' come
Oh, yes it will

[Verse 2]
Tell Victory I love Him, that's the name of the tape
Always give you my last, and I'm learnin' from mistakes
My son only two, and he already a great
Already a legend, 'bout my family I am steppin'
I decided to give you my all, f*ck my ego and my pride now
Moms cryin' from the shit I'm on, sometimes I don't call her phone
Sometimes I don't check in, it don't make sense gotta get back to the basement
It was me and Bud he believed in me, he was sittin' back bein' patient, and I'm gone

[Outro]
Still dealin' with this process
Thank god I ain't check yet
I'm just focused on a big check
Shaun chases success
A change gon' come before the reaper comes
They in the way but, I ain't seein' them
Can't do what we used to do 'cause we goin' up
And I done let certain shit slide, guess a nigga just growin' up
Tell Victory I love 'em
