Its all so quiet in here
If only - I gots to do this
If only - yeah
I know Im takin ya for granted as hell
Dont care, never talk, when we do, not well
Come home, all tired and straight to bed
U b like; remember salaat
And I be like; forget that
I missed the first 4
Anyhow cant deny my conscious is broke
Double standard - 100, ask me why and I choke
Sistas stay home while brothas hit the clubs
Tale spinning on fast lanes, drinking all up
I give a damn about ud walk a 1000 miles for me
I wont even go down to the nearest corner shop for ya
Food on the table every time I run home
Praying while the TV is on, my focus all gone
Cant take ya serious when ya blame me for ya misery
Why cant ya be mo like his or her son, Im sick of it
I wish I could turn back the hands of time
If I could, if I could
I would be ya perfect son
Instead of these tears in dua
Oh my friend
Cant take it anymore
The pain, the rain, the good times missin
Help me sing
If only - we could be down
If only - wed work it out now
If only - well be strong, we gots to keep on holdin on
It wasnt love at first sight, not even the first night
Came later build on mutual respect insight
Ok we argue a lot yaaaaa told u I was leaving
So we say stupid things when we mad but we dont mean em
Come on how did u expect us to connect so fast
We knew zero about each other got hooked up by my mother
U was digging Bollywood while I was in to beats and rhymes
Before it all was about me
Now its all about us
You see relationships build on support and trust
And we had cracks in both
We came close to a divorce
Then he came in and things got better we thought
All though diapers for our babys bootie we could barely afford
For now me and you we scrubbing floors together
But someday inshallah we gonna floss together
Its been a bumpy ride so far well face it together
No matter the weather
Its me you and ours forever
Si solo yo pudiera
Viajar en el tiempo
Si solo yo pudiera
Volver por un momento
Y sentarme junto a usted
Y hablar de hijo a padre
Sentarme junto a usted
De amigo a compadre
Le diria hay una cosa que no se debe de olvidar
La familia es lo primero, es elemental
Pero supongo que en este punto
Somos diferentes y como reprocharle
Si usted es el ausente
Y ahora que ya no esta de que sirve
No se quien tuvo la culpa pero una cosa quiero decirle
Mi madre me hizo hombre
Ella es fuerte y con orgullo
A ella le debo todo mi pasado mi futuro
If only I could
Travel back in time
If only I could
Go back for a moment
And sit down with you
And talk son to father
Sit down with you
Friend to companion
I would tell you there is a thing you cant forget
The family is number one, is essential
But I guess that in this aspect
Were different and how can I reproach you
If you have always been absent
And now that youre gone it doesnt make a difference
I dont know whos fault it is
But one thing I want to tell you
My mom made me a man
She is strong and proud
To her do I own everything
My past and my future
Why why so quiet
Baby ya think by now
Wed knew any better
Why all this fightin
Maybe we should talk
Instead of all this hidin
Nobody
Holdin us down
No more
Oh no
