The Promise Songtext
von Bukshot feat. Crucifix

Where should I start tell me where should I begin
My kids are my heart my very best friends
Always play my part beginning to the end
Together we′re apart through the thick and the thin
I love both of you nothing else compares
No matter what you say or do I will be there
When your sad I'll do my best to change that
Cause I′m your dad there ain't nothing that can change that
Got your back no matter what I got you
Even if your wrong stand beside you that's what dad′s do
The world is falling down on top of y′all I'll pick it up
And put it on my shoulders take the weight til you get up
Take the punches and bullets if I have to
Somebody puts a wall between us I′mma smash through
Till I'm gone I′ll be the muscle in your corner
And that's a promise that I′ll make til I'm a goner


If I should go if I should die
If I should leave and not say goodbye
I'm always watching from above
And you were always loved
And til the day comes I should die I′ll always keep a watchful eye

And that′s a promise I will make and that's a promise I won′t break

My boy tell me your my blood my first son
You know there's always something special about your first one
You done changed daddy′s life in so many ways
You brought the sun out in my life all those rainy days
Never thought I'd see me warning up bottles
Changing diapers too and everything that follows
Magically you changed me like I′m Harry Potter
Used to be a knuckle head but now a proud father
Matty came next that's my youngest son
There's always something special about your youngest one
Thought one was tough until I had you
Prayed for a little angel and I got two
Growing up your bigger brother made it rough son
And always teasing done turned you into the tough one

Your still a daddy′s boy your brother is too
Love you both so much I promise that′s the truth


If I should go if I should die
If I should leave and not say goodbye
I'm always watching from above

And you were always loved
And til the day comes I should die I′ll always keep a watchful eye
And that's a promise I will make and that′s a promise I won't break

No matter what want both of you to know
No matter what you do no matter where you go
The day you came into my life you saved me
And every word I speak is true don′t think I'm crazy
Never thought a person really could be happy
Unless they had a big house and drive a caddy
Until God thought he turned me to a daddy
Ain't nothing stronger in this world than blood and family
I′m sorry that I went to prison but I had to go
Tell y′all about it when your old enough to know
From this moment until the very end of time
Your always in my heart your always on my mind
No matter what just always know that daddy loves you
And always know that every single time I hug you
And that's a promise I′m very proud to make
That'll be the promise that I swear to never break
Jeremy Matthew if anything ever happened to me
And I wasn′t able to say goodbye
I just want both of you to know that you are
the best thing that ever happened in my life

Out of everything I've ever done
You are my best accomplishment and I′m very proud to say that
I love both of you from the bottom of my heart
And that is a promise

If I should go if I should die
If I should leave and not say goodbye
I'm always watching from above
And you were always loved
And til the day comes I should die I'll always keep a watchful eye
And that′s a promise I will make and that′s a promise I won't break
