The Promise(Swang On)
• Written by SONOFJACK • Featuring
My entire life I got things quickly wrong
Missing the times when I could sing happier songs
Where I could be me without needing to know if I belonged
Where at least I won't be the only shark living in a fresh pond
What is a boy's purpose when there's men like HIM on earth
What kind of men makes a woman's stomach start doing Olympic hurdles
how am I meant to grow scared not knowing if start being like them
Hit a woman just because she ain't feeding me late at nine
Hit his ten-year-old at night instead of reading to him
What kind of man can't be kind to his own family? I wanna cherish Mine
not the kind of man that I want to be,
I wanna be the man who thinks about words before a belt
A person who thinks with their heart and not their hands before anything else
How the hell am I meant to be all this though
When the only men in my life are interested in spending their wives dough
On fake cash notes, and tight woman's clothes for all their side-ho's
I wanna be a man who is conservative of everything he loves, and cultivates it
Not burn the shit he makes, play the blame game with the cops, hates himself every breath that he takes
I promise to Be a Man, so long as I don't take the PISS out of the PROMISE I make
Maybe I can be who I want to be, as long as I
Swang On, Swang on, Swang on, Swang On, (Keep goin, Keep Goin) Swang on Swang On (keep going, Keep Goin
If I swing like the noose he put my mama In, her neck, I can still see the flecks of blood on her blouse he left , Ill get revenge
If my fist flies freely, roll him like heely's he sold in the backyard to the McBeely's You see me, you see me
All these damn creases won't come out, carry my cross like I'm Jesus with ammunition
Cos my bullets will fly like Boeing, I will let em whistle, like he does when he takes the piss on values
What a family is meant to be, he's taking all my sanity, every second he speaks, I remember the way my brother ran at me
Scared out his skin, like the scabs he left trailing, I wanna box him like he mail,
Fuck the Men like them in the world, fuck em all and their curse of life, they should die so people can have a life that they deserve
Maybe I can be who I want to be, as long as I
Swang On, Swang on, Swang on, Swang On, (Keep goin, Keep Goin) Swang on Swang On (keep going, Keep Goin)
Burn em all like the 1600s, we gon party like it's 1647, no present's like we a peasant
I would kill a nigga for a present, in fact I did. Which brings us to the present. I made a promise and I broke it
Got a lady and I choked her. Fathers' actions passed down through heritage but I still chose it
I'm sorry kids, please forgive me, I do some bad things when I'm On that Tennesee whiskey.
