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...
