Hey son
I wanted to tell you this before my days are done
That i might not be here to make you a man
And no one else can teach you like daddy can
Never call a woman a s*ut
Just dont do it no if ands or buts
Junior, look a man in his eye
So he believes you even when you lie
Please help your mother
And remember everyone's family everyone's your sister and brother
Don't ever go to jail for selling dope
Don't ever tie your neck and die from the rope
Because your family needs you
That's why they smile whenever they see you
That's why you're little brother wants to be you
I just ask, stay true to you , please do
And when you work
Pretend you can't be hurt
When it comes to your kids just try (pause)
To be the best you can be
Because they are your family
And when you die
All they'll have is memories
I hope you'll remember me
When die I hope you cry
I hope you you look at the sky
And ask,”God, Why?”
I ask of you took care of the girls
Don't let them run off with any guy that buys them pearls
Don't let the boys follow the crowd
And don't silence them when they play too loud
Don't let them too close to the T.V
But when I die that's the only they'll see me
Please Arron it won't be easy
But do it, you'll be fine believe me
