rate me100 Rhyme Books / Reef The Lost CauzeWhat will be a father's legacy to his child?Some'll leave money, some'll leave they nameBut I have somethin much more special that I'd like to give to you[ VERSE 1 ]To my son Isiah, I write this with tears in my eyesJust some things I wanna say in case I meet my demiseYou are everything a father could ask for in a childThe world stopped for me everytime I seen your smileYour laughter like a chapter in my book of lifeI hope the things I'm 'bout to tell you help you with the way you look at lifeFirst of all, the streets is no place for youStay awake, stay aware and never be ( ? )Racism's real, people will have hate for youAnd make a face at you cause you're mixed with a race or twoBut that's their problem and not yoursGo after good choir girls and not whoresBe grateful, remember that you got moreThan most kids, keep your mouth shut if you not sureBut if you are, then don't you dare cowerSpeak your mind, share your power cause papa didnt' raise cowards[ CHORUS 2X ]God forbid but in case I don't make it with youIt's a thousand lessons in life waitin for youListen to the songs, my son, I made 'em for youA hundred rhyme books sittin in the basement for youIt's me and you foreverEven when I'm gone[ VERSE 2 ]I know it seems confusin but son, trust thisThe cops are corrupted and not to be trustedSchoool is important, get your degree and allBut it's also important to be young and free and see it allBrazilian beaches and London cathedral hallsCamp out in the desert underneath the starsI want your views to be worldlyI want you to leave a legacy, a path, a vivid storyIn order to do that, expand your horizonFuck other people, it's not their life to be decidedLove is hard, son, sometimes it's all a gameBut you'll chase it forever cause the heart is kinda strangeAnd as far as religion, to me it's all the sameGod is God no matter what you call his nameIf you're not sure what I'd do, let daddy's music guide youI'll always be right beside you[ CHORUS 2X ]
