[Intro] Yeah... This for my baby boy... [Verse 1] Dreamed 'bout you long before you came, long road, long nights, tears in the rain. Years I was hurting, empty inside, then two pink lines, you brought me to life. My baby boy, you were prayed for, now you 10, you got your own mind now. Call me "bro" with the PlayStation on, tryna act tough but you still need your mama. [Hook] You my heart beating outside my chest, no matter how big you get, you know I got you. Through the hurt, through the nights in pain, Mama gon' be here, always, no matter what. [Verse 2] You was 5 when me and dad broke up, that shit hurt, heart broke when you wasn't waking up next to us. Not seeing you daily, tore me apart, half my soul missing, hole in my heart. But we made it through, you and I, you taught me love that never gon' die. You need me now, but I need you more, you the reason I know what I'm breathing for. [Hook] You my heart beating outside my chest, no matter how big you get, you know I got you. Through the hurt, through the nights in pain, Mama gon' be here, always, no matter what. [Verse 3] Now I see you growing, shoes getting bigger every week, laughing with your friends, big man when you speak. You think you grown, you think you know it all, but late at night you still come running to me. One day you gon' fly, chase your own dreams, make mistakes, fall down, learn what life really means. Just remember this one truth you can bet on, you my heart outside my body, my baby boy, my son. [Hook] You my heart beating outside my chest, no matter how big you get, you know I got you. Through the hurt, through the nights in pain, Mama gon' be here, always, no matter what. [Hook - final, soft] You my heart beating outside my chest, no matter how big you get, you know I got you. Through the hurt, through the nights in pain, Mama gon' be here, always, no matter what. [Outro] From two lines to ten years, to forever, it's me and you, through whatever, together. I'm here, I ain't never gone, you my heartbeat, my baby boy, my son.
