I'll buy some land for you
You, you taught me how to walk
You make mistakes like everybody else
You did an amazing job, sir
You raised a man, my dude
Ay, mama had good taste when she picked you, huh?
She felt strong as hell when she was with you, huh?
You wear your pride with your gratitude out and it fits you, huh?
Ay, anyway I'm out here giving 'em hell, man
Hey, man, if you appreciate iTaima lakho mfethu
And it might be your mom, it might be your dad, but
If you appreciate your parents
And you love them and you're grateful for what they did for you
Hey look at what you did for me
Look at what you made, bro
It's going down in history
You passed me all your humbleness, even some of your chivalry
Taught me how to pray my way out of all my misery
Taught me how to keep my head high, but not medicinally
I still do it medicinally
You don't judge or belittle me
Thank you for your patience
Thanks for letting time tick with me
I'm grateful 'cause you taught me how to be
And I'm hoping that it sticks with me
And if there's anything I do with all my pride
It's making you're your children eat
You gave us life, man, now it's time for us to let you live it up
Anything you wanna do pops call me and I could set it up
I waited so long, man, and I worked so hard
Just to hear you say you're proud of me and you said it
That brought tears to my eyes, bruh
So now I had to say it back to you
You raised us, you went through the most, man
You went through all the bullshit in the world
But you always made sure we had a roof over our head
And that's what makes you a man now
And I wanna say thank you
I can always count on you 'til the end
And I wanna say thank you
