[Verse 2]
(This is what growing up is)
Yeah, growing up just means putting yourself on the shelf,
Puttin' her first before your own damn self.
Can't leave my little one alone, not after these things I've seen,
This city swallows people whole, chews them up like a machine.
I've seen it constantly... a beast that never sleeps,
Maybe that's my fault, for digging in the underworld so deep.
So I stand guard... yeah... and I guess you could call it weak.

[Chorus]
So keep on Simping...
If it means they're safe when you're around.
Keep on Simping...
It means you're better than most men I've found.
So keep on Simping...
'Cause having a heart isn't a weakness, you hear me now?
No... it's a strength... that's your crown.
(Yeah... it's a strength...)
No... it's a strength... that's your crown.
(Yeah... it's a strength...)

[Verse 3]
They say a man who does it all is "simping," ain't that the truth they tell?
But if a kid's involved, that simping is the only thing that breaks the spell.
So call it what you want... it's an honorable thing to do,
Standing in the fire when nobody else will stand with you.
(I gotta do it)
Maybe I'd be long gone if I didn't see her start to grow,
Just another ghost on streets where cold winds always blow.
Life makes you make cruel decisions, makes you bleed to let things live,
My own happiness... or hers... man, what you expect me to give?

[Verse 4 - Rapping]
(You think this is easy?)
You think this is easy? Men leave their kids here all the time,
Just walk away from everything, forget the uphill climb.
Wish they didn't... single mother house hold Inclined.
So much stress up on my shoulders, feel it pressin' on my mind...
But then she laughs... and for a moment, that's the happiest you'll ever see,
A glimpse of pure sunlight shinin' right back at me.
I think that most of us, we've just become too selfish to the core,
When's the last time you sacrificed for somethin' you adore?
We've all become too selfish to help right where it really matters,
Watchin' dudes help these hoes raise their kids while his own life shatters.
This community needs to help us, build each other up again,
But people don't even trust neighbors... where does the healing then begin?

[Verse 1] (What else am I to do?) These nights get long, the thoughts get loud, Just me and my shadow in this lonely crowd. Ask myself, what else am I to do? When every path I walk just leads straight back to you. They need me... or they might go hungry, cold, and scared, This ain't a choice, my life's already been declared. [Verse 2] (This is what growing up is) Yeah, growing up just means putting yourself on the shelf, Puttin' her first before your own damn self.
