Forreal! First time I heard i legitimately wept, both from happiness and sadness. Never heard a song that took me on a Rollercoaster of emotions. Still choke up every time.
This man is huge inspiration for all fathers regardless of a relationships situation. Got me sheddin tears in the dmv line waitin to get reinstated so I can take a ride to go see my son that the mother is tryin to keep me away from.🙏

Keep doing the right thing and always make the effort. Your son will see it as he grows. Mine is 7. Was in and out of jail the first 3 years of his life. But now I get him 2 nights a week and we have a great relationship. It was a rough ride but kids are worth it brother 🙏

This is the generation of redemption for the fatherless fathers being real dads tryna do the right thing with too often times, baby mommas that grew up without dads, or with step dads or mom's boyfriends, in homes with the same resentment towards non commital fathers as most of us fatherless fathers have/had. It's like we gotta not only do our part but we gotta make up for the shit job the previous generations of sperm donors did at taking responsibility for their seeds. Stay involved, fight for AT LEAST equal parental rights, and make sure your babies know it takes 2 people to give them life and 2 people are responsible for nurturing that life to make sure there is balance in their upbringing for when it's time to tend the next generation, it will be empowered by equality.
As a dad of girls, the first time I heard this song it just hit different. 👍 "the birth of a baby daughter softens a man's heart"

It would be truth if he put "like" before "I didn't exist before.." He did exist. Plus he intends to beat up teachers for her, does it includes his teacher wife? And why people who have money claim they're gonna cheat or steal for their children? I always was poor and similar thought never passed through my mind, lol.

This song feels like it was written for me. I'm sure lots of Dad's to little girls feel the same way. Mad respect to all the Dad's out there puttin in work raising their kids.
Respect! It takes courage for a man to open up these days.
I’m 19 and don’t know what it’s like to have a baby yet but I can only imagine how I’ll feel when that day comes and I hear this song again…. thanks RA
One of the all-time greats. I don't know if you'll ever get the credit you deserve, but damn, do you deserve it. Love this track, been a single father to my daughter for the last 15 years, one of the most rewarding and challenging experiences anyone could go through.

Novel did sooooo good in this song! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
R.A I got 3 daughter's bro twins that are 10 and another one that is 8. They memorized this entire song by heart. Well they only know the 1st, 2 verses I'll play them the 3rd one when they get a little older. All My Heroes Are Dead best album in the last 20 years don't give a fuck what nobody says...
Literally one of the greatest songs ever made. In my top 5 without a doubt. Just incredible, everything about it 👊
The fact that this has been release for 2 years now and only has 10k likes is criminal....
I remember when I first heard this song, it was about 6 months after this album came out and my wife and I had just found out we were going to have a baby. Our first pregnancy before had been a miscarriage. We were scared but holding on to hope that everything would be okay this time around. I remember sitting on the couch and listening to this song and hoping that we would have a little girl and crying. Today, we have our beautiful little girl and this song hits me in a way I can’t explain. My daughter is everything to me and this song does a good job of giving a small glimpse into a father’s view of his little girl. Thank you R.A. for this beautiful art. My girl is my whole entire world and there’s not a single thing I wouldn’t do for her.
Congrats R.A. you deserve this happiness and this chance to give your child everything you wished you had growing up. I feel bad for the young man when she gets older lol 😂
Absolutely brilliant...
The whole album is fire but this is the most relatable track. There's is nothing that could convince a man to change his ways except for a child. When the seed is planted, your only job is to nourish it and make sure it grows stronger than you did 🙏🏾
Damn, man...i got chills because yesterday my lady told me she is pregnant and, idk, i can't explain....but these damn ninjas need to stop cuttin onions in my room, for real! Much love for this joint right here!
So glad to see Novel shining again! Beautiful song!
New favourite track... Word is born.💙👊🏼🔥
Omg WOW! You want to talk about Hip Hop that gets you emotional. Well who would of thought that R.A. would be one of the ones to do it but with a touch of that classic R.A. style that hits hard and home. Talk about POWERFUL HIP HOP! Hip Hop that has heart everyone should be hearing. Man this song really makes you treasure life and realize what its ultimately all about coming from someone who ain't a father yet but has a idea from my homes getting back in the picture for his daughter and sons life that I highly respect. I am so proud to have bought this album when it first dropped for pre-order and show my support for R.A. The Rugged Man whole heartily baby!
All my heros are legends, shout out r.a., been rocking with you for 20 years
Absolutely incredible song Rugged, a classic sincere masterpiece brother,
Hits home for me, life changed and started when my 1lbs10oz baby was born, healthy 2yr old now!
RA really looks that that role model every young man today needs. He is keeping everything real, seems to be a really great father and knows the real values in life. Big up my man
One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you
Blessing us with another one The legend God Bless 🙏
Probably one of the most underappreciated artists ever
That’s exactly how I feel about my daughter. My first born, and it’s amazing! Great song, man. You’re becoming my favorite rapper ☮️💜
Not all of my heros are dead. RA is still alive & kicking :)
