Lyrics
Chorus:
No other name for you
Even though they call you by another
You were always my G
And you light up the room
Ever since the first day you were here
You were always my G
And if the world is cruel
I will be the last one standing here to protect you
Don't grow up too soon
For now and till forever you were always my G

Yeah
Yo G
Ha
You probably won't even understand this
So imma try and paint the picture on a canvas
Just wanna tell you you won't ever get abandoned
Can't lie I started writing and got anxious
But you’re my biggest blessing
What a life that I've been granted
One in a million couldn’t try it if we planned it
Don't mind me just fly free you’re my G

Shit ain’t easy this a different type of love
Every time we greet you get a different kind of hug
All the memories that we keep
You and me could write a book
And we’re still not done
You're my G till time is up
Out in public you walk past them they might look
Keep smiling baby girl and watch the day gone brighten up
Know I'm still with ya
I’d kill for ya
If someone tried their luck
Can’t even sip my drink
I’m spilling tears inside my cup

Knew you were special from the minute you was born
Un-identical twin but so different from them all
So happy when I met you and your sister on the ward
You know big bros here to come and lift you if you fall
I know hat will take of you when I’m gone
That's my angel she’ll be stable until I’m one
I wish Tony seen you grow but shit we ride on
Looking back at old pictures where’s the time gone

(Chorus)

Yeah
Heart broke when i found out there's a hole in yours
Had me stressed out for weeks but I cope of course
No way you would have left us
You was three months old
You got a long life ahead of you
I know there's more
To make you happy is what I’m hoping for
Can have anything you want
I took an oath I swore
Baby live your best life you shouldn’t grow by force
All in your own time G
The globe is yours
Yeah

You got us wearing odd socks on the 21st
People laugh but we’re too strong for it to ever hurt
They might try and bring you down but it’ll never work
When you smile you just light up the room
I ain’t never met a person that's brighter than you
Say I love you and i mean it every time that I do
You little shit you got me crying in the booth
Tryna do mum proud
Tryna do dad proud
Tryna do you proud
Tryna do Hat proud
That’s why I’m trying 5 years I ain’t sat down
And all I’ve heard is your voice in the background
Don't say a word before you chat I just know it
If I answer facetime you gunna ask me where Joe is
Swear to god you’re just amazing little girl
From the bottom of my heart
I wouldn't change you for the world
Yeah

(Chorus)

    I have nothing but respect for aitch and Ed for this song. Genuinely had a grown man crying. Beautiful and amazing my friends
  • @philpot1972
    Being a dad with a daughter with a special difference this really hits the spot, I’m 50 and this is beautiful
  • Being a dad of a little boy with autism this song really hits me such a beautiful song
  • My sisters disabled and this song makes me cry, very true words i can totally relate to, well done aitch for spreading the message your parents must be so proud of you xx
  • @itz_b3vs186
    Aitch should definitely do more storytelling/heartfelt rap. I can relate to this so much!!! By far your best song yet!!!
  • @vonnievee
    As an older mom who has a special needs child, my biggest fear is what happens when I'm gone. So when Aitch tells his sister she'll never be abandoned, it totally wrung out my ❤️. I wish everyone had someone to care that much... way to go Aitch! Thanks to Ed for being a part of this too!
  • I lost my little G to cancer and think about her every single day, what a beautiful song, treasure her forever for tomorrow is never guaranteed 👌
  • @TwinkieCakey
    I swear, Aitch and Ed are God given. These guys are absolute gold. Your sister is one amazing human being. I love this song. :)
  • @Danksy33
    Huge Respect Aitch. Bought a tear to my eye. Give your sister a big hug from all of us and tell her how beautiful she is
  • I can’t describe the emotions this song brings to me. I’ve got a baby boy due in 4 days that had a Down Syndrome diagnosis. We named him Graham months ago, so this song encapsulates everything in my life right now. I’ll now have my own G!
  • I love how Ed is in the song signing but letting Aitch have the show!  Never once you see Ed's face (apart from drawings) which is the most heartwarming thing.
  • @anjiexxful
    I can’t imagine how it would feel to have my brother write a song like this about me, absolutely beautiful and so special. Aitch you are one in a million, not just as a musician but in your attitude to life and women, I respect you as a musician and as a man. Beautiful and will be buying this song I hope you get number 1 xxx
  • @isuruma6592
    This is what rap should be. A story told through words. Amazing.
  • Love this song, my little boy Oliver has down syndrome. he is a true blessing to our family. he is full of mischief, always making us smile and he is just amazing
  • @ramiapna630
    I bet his family are proud. The way each of his lines hit the heart. Ed Sheeran is a golden bonus.
  • @gameon9167
    Imagine watching this as Aitch's parents knowing you did everything right! ❤
  • From the moment my son was born with down syndrome, my life changed. This sounds so much like my son. He lights up any room no matter how dark the mood. The way he seems to just know what kind of hug I need at any given moment. Odd socks😂 don't know now why I was so scared at first, I wouldn't have him any other way.
  • This is what you call music when it has a meaning i absolutely love the song total RESPECT
  • As a mama of a little boy with special needs, this hits home so much. Big love ❤
  • @kilokay5506
    This was so heartfelt. Got chills listening to this. Different calibre of artists these two
