faheem abdul aziz ibn ali newman
i will never stop being sorry that your home got broken
feel like i owe you for the road that i chose
but i believe things happen the way there supposed to
and you'll always be with me wherever i go
i was right there for your first breath
used to lay you on my chest when you slept
i ain't tryna' hold that over your head
god put you in 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 cos i believe in you
make good choices and always follow through
but above all else know allah always watch us
and everything we do comes back upon us
lets talk about your mummy
i need you to know i used everything inside 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 thats what this is about
i just pray you don't remember us sleeping on the floor
have me cleaning mouse droppings outta your toys
it took alot of hard work for us to get where we at
and young man we ain't quitten 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 bonds so strong that the moment i get off
we seem to pick right back up where we left off
i tried to say i do it for you
but in my heart i know thats not entirely true
so if i ever come home and feel it hurt us as friends
swear to god 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
taught me what this life is really about
