Fajr |
Faheem |
I gave you that name, boy… |
I will never stop feelin sorry that your home got broken |
I feel that I owe you for the road that I chose |
But I believe things happen the way they’re supposed to |
And you’ll always be with me wherever that I go |
I was right there for your first breath |
I used to lay you on my chest when you slept |
I fed you, changed you, read to you, bathed you, |
I’m not trying to hold that over your head, |
I’m saying thank you |
God put you into my arms for me to teach you |
Sometimes I gotta not be popular to reach you |
But boy look me in my eye when I speak to you |
I tell you these things because I believe in you |
Respect, patience, excellence, and truth |
Make good choices and always follow through |
But above all else know Allah always watch us |
And Everything we do comes back upon us |
Alright, let’s talk about your mommy |
I need you to know that I used everything inside of me |
To make you as healthy as you could possibly be |
And I just couldn’t see a good future for us three |
And you gonna have questions as you grow |
But there’s certain negative things that you don’t need to know |
And baby boy that’s what this is about |
We live, learn, and figure it out |
I just pray that you don’t remember us sleepin on the floor |
And me cleanin mouse droppings out of your toys |
It took alot of hard work for us to get where we at |
And young man, we aint quittin at that |
Just know that it hurts me to death when I leave and go tourin |
I’m scared that it might make you feel unimportant |
But our bond is so strong that the moment I get off |
We seem to pick right back up where we left off |
I try to say that I do it for you |
But in my heart I know that’s not entirely true |
So if I ever come home and feel that I’ve hurt us as friends |
I swear to God that I’ll never tour again |
I ain’t never met a child quite like you |
Words don’t suffice for me to describe you |
You have a genuine goodness inside you |
I watch you and wonder if I was ever like you |
It’s me and you, brother, for life |
So when you put me in the ground, look for me in the clouds |
You make me the definition of proud |
You taught me what this life is really about |
Faheem… |
