Legacy

Have You ever seen a child without a first uncle?

Well,my son is one

Five aunts,no uncle and that's a sign of greatness you know what I'm saying

At the age of 16,a young lady named Patience

Captured the heart of a young man whose dream was step taking

2008 was the year,I still recall

Regarded as a fair player each time I kicked the ball

Sometimes we pick the call to be told that the weak will fall

And the meek is all the earth wants,shit this is small

Compared to how she felt when she became pregnant

The church wasn't happy about it but nobody blamed reverend

Cos sex education in church was left untaught

That wasn't a major topic except when one is caught

I knew about the conception when it's two weeks old

But I never wanted abortion,hate to do it cold

Truth be told,I met this lady a virgin

She had dreams of becoming a star in beauty peagent

Her momma didn't know about the stuff till after three months

She was in school to further her studies for some few months

Came back home and she was told about it

She called it bad news what my momma see as proud gist

Considering the fact that it's gonna be a blessing

She followed suit and put me and her daughter through some lessons

Listen son,daddy wanna talk to you for some minutes

You're born to be great,I'll try to put your life in awesome image

2008,Friday November 21st your mom conceived you

2009,Friday August 14th the world received you

I had you as a son when I wasn't far from 20 years

Even though your birth made me a star with plenty tears

Grandma's praying for daddy to be the next thing to blast

I promised you a bicycle if you perform best in your class

But your teacher said it's quite awful you ain't as bright as me

Then I told him with time you wouldn't wanna be as tight as me

Cos even my best would be something you'll see as mediocre

So I won't blame you if you boycott rap to do the yoga

I'll just give you microphone,football and exercise book

And leave you with the choice to build yourself into the wise look

When I was 6 I was the dullest in my class

But at the age of 10 I turned every wall into glass

Seing through all the darkest things that stood in front of me

So do better for not everything good is for a G

So uncle Moses is right to say you aiin't performing well for now

I see you being better than your daddy let me tell you how

Believe in God,say less and listen more

Don't be impressed by mere brightness,study what diamonds glisten for
