22 Lyrics by Curtis Roach

Highly Caffeinated

2017

[Intro]
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all, that children call
Their favorite time of year

[Verse 1]
I'm not a poet, I just think a lot
I'm not a poet, I just write a lot
I'm not a poet, I just think a lot
Ay
This for my dad from that Grandville
This for the reason why I move, and they stand still (uh)
This for my daddy (yeah)
This for my daddy
This for my daddy from that Grandville
My daddy raised me to be myself
Raised me to see myself as a king
And keep my dreams even when I'm in need of help
That's my father at a young age
But I kept what he taught me
Like how to fight if they fought me
And be a champion
Even when my back's against the wall
I know how to stand tall
Man. I'm never gonna fall
'Cause I lean on
My daddy's spirit
I know you hear me when I'm prayin'
My daddy's spirit
I know you hear me when I'm sayin'

[Chorus]
(Hey dad)
Your little cub is comin' together now
(Hey)
Your little cub is comin' together
Even through stormy weathers
Watch my pictures all develop
And my father lookin' down
To say his son is lookin' better now
Your little cub is comin' together now
(Hey)
Your little cub is comin' together
Even through stormy weathers
Watch my pictures all develop
And my father lookin' down
To say his son is lookin' better now

[Verse 2]
My superheroes ain't had no powers or capes
But he was a linebacker, makin' powerful plays
Out in Michigan State
Shortly after, I came
This is what my dad told me
On the fourteenth of May
He said
You the chief
You the king
You the ruler
They gon know our name
It's not the grade in the future
Daddy gave me everything
The food stamps couldn't
But I never asked for it
If I knew dad couldn't, cause
I hold my own
Only smiles I show
Keep my dad's chain on me
So I'm never alone
Sew my heart on my sleeve
Heavily sewn
With the water's pain
So my name better be known
Better be top shelf
While my name in bright lights
Do this all for my dad
See it out o' my eyes
Tell me when you see us
Daddy, we gon be up
I'll tell him
We up, we up, we up, we up

[Outro]
(Ooh)
Alright, that was it
