Baby Steps |
| Your children are not your children |
| They are sons and daughters of life’s longing for itself |
| They come through you but not from you |
| And though they are with you, they belong not to you |
| List the things I love, I couldn’t ever begin |
| From the giggle when you’re happy to the smell of your skin |
| Every day you surprise me with intelligent things |
| Ready for blessings and lessons your development brings |
| I learn more from you than you could ever learn from me |
| First step, first word, first time I heard you breathe |
| It’s a feeling beyond comparison |
| Heartbeat sweeter than any song that I’m rapping in |
| In this life I want your happiness and nothing more |
| Feels like we were both born again when we cut the cord |
| Our trauma from the past is a factor in your present |
| But sacrifice our lives for yours, you’d have them in a second |
| Not feeling this close when you smile, kiss and squeeze me |
| Food for the soul, your beautiful spirit feeds me |
| Made us touch our scars again, that process isn’t easy |
| My life instead of yours, I would smile and give it freely |
| Through your life I’ll watch you grow, but there’s one thing you must know |
| You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son |
| One day I’ll have to let you go, but you must keep within your soul |
| You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son |
| As I watched your heart beating on the scan |
| I knew you’d be born into things you wouldn’t understand |
| I hope I can prepare you for the pain you will withstand |
| And always remember before a man inta insan (you're a human) |
| We are not perfect, sometimes we’ll get it wrong |
| Breaks my heart there’s things in life we just can’t protect you from |
| See the difference between right and wrong, I pray that you can |
| Just know it’s my heart that you take in your hand |
| Every day I sit face to face with a walking miracle |
| Not a cord, umbilical, connection more than physical |
| Whatever the weather, the sky is sunny when you smile |
| Wrote this for every parent sitting worried for their child |
| Your eyes are like stars to me, voice is like heaven singing |
| Being with you is like the sweetest dream I’ve ever been in |
| My moon and my son, that sentence isn’t a metaphor |
| You’re the beginning, middle and the end we must be better for |
| Through your life I’ll watch you grow, but there’s one thing you must know |
| You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son |
| One day I’ll have to let you go, but you must keep within your soul |
| You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son |
| There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear |
| Times when you need some love, those times you will see me there |
| There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear |
| Times when you need some love, those times you will see me here |
| There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear |
| Times when you need some love, those times you will see me there |
| We never knew love like this, we never knew love like this until you blessed us |
| There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear |
| Times when you need some love, those times you will see me here |
| We never knew love like this, we never knew love like this until you blessed us |
| Beautiful boy |
| You’re my beautiful boy |
| You’re my beautiful boy |
| You’re my beautiful boy |
| You’re a beautiful boy |
| You’re a beautiful boy |
