joey wolfe - dear son lyrics

[intro]
uh, mic check
1-2, 1-2
yeah, can you– hold up is the b-ss in my headphones?
okay, alright, yeah
listen, listen, listen, alright

[verse 1]
uh, son i hope you heed these words
and understand the words i share with you ain’t meant to feed the birds
but if one day you choose to fly away, i hope the lesson’s learned
and i hope your revenue expanded far beyond the booth
but this the only way that i could make a different life for you
yeah, believe me man i try for you
so when you see the growth the outcome proves i only speak the truth

check, alright listen, listen, alright

uh, and i hope you never feel your back against the wall
but as long as you could trust my hand i’ll never let you fall
cause i could show you steps in life when i believe you’ve learned to crawl
i pray you never think to follow my path
well history repeats itself, but never question the past
i been the man, i put this city on my back
i’ll show you what i made it past so that respect you’ll never lack
see, baby boy we not too different you and i
you the promise that i’ll never let my conscience compromise
you my seed to carry on my name and knowledge of the wise
and i promise you i’ll never let you see your father cry
i’ll be your superhero, here to save the day
if you find yourself in trouble or get lost along the way
be there to catch you ‘fore you fall, so that you never lose your faith
listen, keep your innocence alive
don’t be quick to stain your soul, that’s when your heart gets jeopardized
when you see the bad this world possesses through forbidden eyes
cause you choose to bite the fruit instead of living in disguise
sh-t, but h-ll we share that quality
i was a rebel since my birth, i’m sure to p-ss on to my seed
but if you choose to trust in someone, you could put your faith in me
cause if we both were short of breath, i’d blow to you and let you breathe
motivate myself so that the day that you’re conceived
i’ll hand you everything you want: a mockingbird, a diamond ring
and be the man to stand behind you if one day you have a dream
i’m here to make sure you don’t make the same mistakes
you’ll make your own, but if you grab the wheel be sure to hit the brakes
cause if you try to move too fast, you’ll learn that life decides your fate
don’t have no fears, i’m here to always protect
so that you never shed a tear, i’ll take the pain that you neglect
if i inspire only one, i hope it’s you who i affect

chickety-check, yo yo

uh, see you’ll learn when you get older
daddy went against the odds
was on my own by age 15 and still i worked to be the boss
and you might ask about my past and wonder how i handled it all
cause i’ll stand on broken knees before i give it up and fall
i enlighten you with knowledge
put you in private schools and mold your mind
so you can go to college
and make something of yourself, so when you ask for it you got it

yeah, listen, listen
mic check
uh hold on, slow it down
alright, yeah
alright let’s get it

but this is just a letter to you
to let you know i’m working hard to make the future bright and blue
so if one day we sit and chat, you know us two inside a room?
you’ll ask, “well how’d it all get started? how’d you live by what you do?”
and i’ll pull this record out and say, “i’ll play a song for you”
