about

Originally made in a day with open source loops and laptop vocals, this auto-tuned R&B lullaby has evolved into an album standout — fear of fatherhood is only just a PHASE.

lyrics

Aim high...Swing low
You cry...I don’t wanna go
We give...Each day
They live...Take it all away
Don’t wanna...be a bother
I’m just tryin’...to be a father
And you can ask Him...as my witness
All I need is...your forgiveness
'cause I was lost and living in a haze...
Now I get it
I was goin’ through a phase

Why can’t we always be together
I want to share this life forever.

Want...need...plant...seed
Run...fly...live...die
Wrong way...romance...
she say...no chance
So cold...my wish...
’fore I’m old and
sleepin’ with the fish
Quit the cigarettes...
fix the big regrets
New messiah but
He hasn’t come back yet
Tried to stop ya but you
found your way in
Took your first breath
even with the medicine.

Wasn’t ready for it
so I had to leave her
then you call my name
and I am a believer
In my blood, in my mind,
in the flow of time
Servin’ out my sentence with you
almost makes it feel sublime
Gonna push thru,
when the debt comes due
and please know this much is true
I made my bed and now
my only job’s to shepherd You
Gave up one dream for another
gave up my soul to your mother
Gave up my life so
we could always have each other

Why can’t we always be together
I want to share this life forever.

Now I’m high...when I was low
Now I cry...‘cause I don’t wanna go
What you give...Each day
so I live...you take the pain away
In your eyes...in my hands
In our lives...now I understand
Can you hear it...never fear it
Heaven sent you here
to resurrect my spirit
Found my reason
found my Heart
Now I am prayin’ we won’t
ever be apart ‘cause
All my life I was runnin’ through a maze
Now I get it
I was goin’ through a phase
