It's a man's world all about him
'Cause, she cool but she not him
Ladies first only when she put there by him
Want her to take orders, never see her as a soldier
Hold up Let me stop acting like I'm not him
Like I never womanized or undermined her
Want her how I wanted, where I wanted when I wanted her
In a home she made being treated like a foreigner
Taught she only valuable if she got him
And if she can have a baby boy by him
Future male chauvinist just like him
Would you want him for your daughter, how we plan on moving forward
In order for us to grow gotta stop him me
From thinking that we're better than or we own her
Of course our destinies coincide
So I gotta do better in my daughter's eyes
So you know you gotta

Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause this world is yours baby
It's your baby
Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause you're so much more baby
Much more baby

Had to raise a couple kids all without him
But employers never give her what they got him
Who get custody in most cases it's not him
Forced to do it with less, always doing her best
But a good man, she lucky if she find him
Like the same don't apply the day he find her
Would you drop everything so you could lift her up
Like she did for you every time you had given up
But you talking like she lucky that she not him
Traumatized her for life, they just shot him
Forced to find the strength to carry on without him
Knowing your son could face the same and unbearable pain
'Cause she know what this cruel world thinks of him
What's sadder is the world thinks less of her
We all should be mortified
I pray we do better in our daughters' eyes

Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause this world is yours baby
It's your baby
Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause you're so much more baby
Much more baby

Taught you couldn't do that 'cause it's for him
TV showing less real you more him
Got raped, your fault, shouldn't lure him
Like we ain't got self control, all playing a roll
In violence against her done by him
Sad 'cause I ain't really care 'til I had her
A lot dudes complacent, 'cause most are raising their sons
What winner care about the losers when they've already won
Whether we talking race or battle of the sexes
Walking in their shoes, most valuable of lessons
Seeing what my daughter gotta carry and it's heavy
Being black and woman, know we gotta get her ready
Glad I got a Queen by my side to help lead her
Love her more than life but some things I can't teach her
Her foundation must be fortified
We plan to do right in our daughter's eyes

Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause this world is yours baby
It's your baby
Keep growing, baby
Keep growing, baby
'Cause you're so much more baby
Much more baby
