[Verse 1 soulful & poetic]
I see that weight you carry deep in your eyes,
Dreams feel distant, hidden under gray skies.
But you were born with a fire, strong and true,
A spark in your heart that the world can’t undo.
When the nights feel colder than your fears allow,
I’ll be your shelter, I’ll guide you somehow.
Though life’s a battle and the road feels long,
You’ll find your strength where your soul belongs.
[Chorus soulful & poetic]
Hold on, baby boy, don’t let go,
Even in the dark, let your courage show.
The streets may whisper, but your soul’s too bright,
You were born to win, not to lose this fight.
Hold on, baby boy, stand up tall,
When you feel weak, you can always call.
You’re my hope, my pride, my joy,
You’ll always be my baby boy.
[Verse 2 soulful & poetic]
Your scars are proof of the storms you’ve braved,
But every tear is a soul God saved.
You are more than the pain that they make you see,
There’s a future that’s waiting, endlessly free.
I’ve prayed for your heart, I’ve prayed for your name,
You’re destined for more than the struggle and shame.
So keep your head high, let your spirit soar,
There’s a kingdom of dreams you were made for.
[Verse 3 male rap]
Ma, it’s real out here, every block got ghosts,
Streetlights flicker, and they haunt you the most.
Seen chalk on the pavement, names on the wall,
Another young dreamer who refused to crawl.
Sirens sing lullabies deep in the night,
Corner boys hustle just to feel alright.
Death at the stop sign, lurkin’ by the store,
You can lose your life for steppin’ out your door.
But I hear your voice, Mama, cut through the rain,
Your prayers keep me grounded while I fight this pain.
I see that crown you told me I wear,
Even in this jungle, I know you care.
So I’ll dodge them traps, keep my mind on goals,
Turn this fire in my chest to the purest gold.
[Bridge soft & uplifting]
You’re not alone, I’m right here,
Through every shadow, every fear.
The world may try to take your light,
But love will guide you through the night.
[Chorus soulful & poetic]
Hold on, baby boy, don’t let go,
Even in the dark, let your courage show.
The streets may whisper, but your soul’s too bright,
You were born to win, not to lose this fight.
Hold on, baby boy, stand up tall,
When you feel weak, you can always call.
You’re my hope, my pride, my joy,
You’ll always be my baby boy.
