Lyrics

[Intro]
The universal family is a sun, moon, and star
It's a man, woman, and child
[Chorus]
It's your love that makes me better
If I start to love you the way you need me to
And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do
All my kings and queens, love is what we need
[Verse 1]
As the world spins like a vinyl, let me set the record straight
My heart would steady break every time your breakfast plate
Was featherweight 'cause should be better, 'cept it ain't
The ghetto's a septic tank, how could you expect a saint?
Opportunities just seem to be way farther
The reach seem way harder, you gotta think way smarter
Memoirs of a teenage father, how could he raise daughters
Without the cash money like DeWayne Carter?
We was livin' in the jungles where Denzel filmed Training Day
With killers on our staircase, still God made a way
Moved back to Long Beach, the Crip set, we didn't have a whip yet
I walked y'all to school prayin' the rain away
Kindergarten to college, yeah, I raised my daughters, y'all
They had a good mama, sometimes they father would drop the ball
But all them problems got resolved, and as I recall
The realest words that I ever heard is "Love conquers all"
[Chorus]
It's your love that makes me better
If I start to love you the way you need me to
And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do
All my kings and queens, love is what we need
[Bridge]
I'll make life my prison, live unconditional
First you never leave, God stay with me
Visions of my husband and I by the sea
Shall love rise, we're planted, sugar on them bees
I can't go back now, can't you see?
So I make up 'bout how I achieved
Homeless nights, rough family
Don't tell me, God, is that money that saved me
[Verse 2]
Dear Mama, sorry I ain't see you in a minute
I be always on my grind tryna get these albums finished
Hope you got that bread I sent you, put the cheese in your account
When you see my little homie, tell him Daddy had to bounce
Yeah, I'm looking for that big house, something that's worth it
And I'ma give that bread to you, Mama, so you can make that purchase
You taught me how to maintain when difficulty surface
I wanna give you something back to show you I ain't perfect
[Chorus]
It's your love that makes me better
If I start to love you the way you need me to
And I need you to know that I care for you, yes, I do
All my kings and queens, love is what we need
