Tekst piosenki
So I never told the world that the first time I toured I came home to find that little man had been ignored Two years old got a hold of water you had boiled And burned his little head and his face while you snored You were afraid of bringing him to the hospital ‘Cause two weeks ago your mom called the cops on you Child protection paid a visit Ruled that the crib was unfit to raise kids in I’m working ten hour days at the gig then You were unemployed all null and void Now I ain’t trying to be no Sigmund Freud But ain’t you supposed to have instincts when it comes to the boy I called a cab and took him to county hospital They shaved hair and burnt flesh off his skull Held him overnight to fight infection I slept sitting up in a chair directly next to him I just knew you would join us but instead Hopped your ass on the bus went home and went to bed That’s the very moment I divorced you in my head God might forgive you for that I never did All you need right now Faheem we can see the throne from here I may never sit there but brother you’re the heir Pull up a chair let pop bend your ear Here baby dry those tears I know you wonder why your mother does the things that she do Well it’s not because she doesn’t love you It’s because she grew up in something they call foster care That’s when strangers raise you your mom’s not there Imagine how she felt when she was your age Going from place to place never feeling safe Never having love never having faith She probably thought the world was a big scary place Where was her mommy at well that’s kind of sad She used drugs to forget the problems she had There was a new one back then they called crack Once you try it there was almost no coming back She couldn’t be the mommy she wanted to be She was chasing a high all in the street Won’t tell you no lie real is all I can be I believe only truth can set you free There’s a whole lot of pain in your bloodline But there’s a whole lot of strength in the sunshine Lean back let the new day greet you ‘Cause you’re standing on the shoulders of a people Who been beat down and treated unequal But the prayer that they made now has reached you It’s plain to see it’s true Beautiful prince I wish they could see you All you need right now
