The Promise by Bukshot Lyrics
[Intro: CRUCIFIX]
Aye
No no
[Verse 1: Bukshot]
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 grow 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 till you get up
Take the punches and bullets if I have to
Somebody puts a wall between us I'ma 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
[Chorus: CRUCIFIX]
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
Until the day comes I should fly I'll always keep a watchful eye
And that’s a promise I will make and that's a promise I won't break
[Verse 2: Bukshot]
My boy Timmy, 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 warming up bottles (up bottles)
And changing diapers too and everything that follows (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 too 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 all his teasing done turned you into the tough one
You're still a daddy's boy your brother is too
Love you both so much I promise that's the truth
[Chorus: CRUCIFIX]
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
Until the day comes I should fly I'll always keep a watchful eye
And that's a promise I will make and that's a promise I won't break
[Verse 3: Bukshot]
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 both 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 drove 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 till 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 that I'm very proud to make
And that'll be the promise that I swear to never break
[Bridge: Bukshot]
Timmy, 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 all 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
[Chorus: CRUCIFIX]
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
Until the day comes I should fly I'll always keep a watchful eye
And that's a promise I will make and that's a promise I won't break
Aye
No no
