[Verse 1]  
Some knew my uncle Roc as a mob figure  
But to me he was much bigger he was like a father figure  
All that crooked shit he did he never let us see  
Welcome me into his home givin' me family  
A man to me closer than my own pops  
My cousins ain't my cousins, they're my brothas and that lovin' wont stop  
Never wanted the come I would never throw ya name  
For personal gain, too much respect in my veins  
Grow to me like your own and I never got to thank ya  
Angry when I saw what they printed in the paper  
Offered to take me in when I lost my mom  
That's why I respect you more than any mafia don  
I didn't know that man that did the federal bids  
I knew a man who give the whole world to his kids  
Knew a man who was funny and he had a good heart  
And I'ma treasure you forever I'm a miss you uncle Roc  
  
[Chorus]  
In my life I never had a dad  
But you we're right there to guide me down the path  
Given me the things I woulda never had  
Even though it's hard now that 'cha passed  
I still move on, try not to be sad  
I had you in my life I think god for that  
And I just hope that I can be  
Half the man you have to be  
  
[Verse 2]  
Grandpa you did a better job wit me than your son  
No disrespect to my father but you got the job done  
Taught me how to win respect that I'll never forget  
Working hard all your life poured blood, tears, and sweat  
Taught me honor and pride, and I feel hollow inside  
Wit out 'chu in my life I'm so sorry you died  
Took me from a boy to a man, and you raised me  
Not just for me, you did the same thing for Jamie  
But you were the glue that held the family together  
Never thought after you passed that the family would sever  
All of our ties, and just stop communicatin'  
But without ya love I guess we started hatin'  
But we was all there around the hospital bed  
We were prayin' and cryin' I said goodbye then I kissed ya forehead  
Watchin' my hero trying to breathe on a respirator  
Yesterday the pain was even greater watchin' as you fade away  
Right before my eyes, wishin' I could save you  
Right until the end you were so strong and brave too  
Named my son after you and you were so proud  
Told everyone you knew about 'cha great grandchild  
You held him in ya arms broke a tear couldn't speak  
If only I knew, you woulda passed the next week  
I woulda told you were my world thank you for your love  
I hope your lookin' down watchin' over us from above  
Because, you were the one who played the role model  
Without 'chu in my life my hearts filled with sorrow  
I guess what they say no one is promised tomorrow  
Its true, Gods mysterious ways would always follow  
You taught me life lessons I'ma carry for life  
Pass it on to my seed, and try to bring him up right  
Without these influences I don't know where I'd be  
In the cemetery or in the penitentiary  
  
[Chorus x3]
