Fathers Creed

Fathers creed
With every child I conceive
I will leave behind a part of me

This is my holy grail 2 eternity

What I share and teach
the world will see
I'll die knowing
This is my Contribution
To help build a better society

My aspirations is to instill characteristics
That are moral up-right and true

Walk beside them and guide them
Teach them how to pick the ripest fruits
Reveal that the best things in life are free
And believe none of what they here
Only what they see

So when it's their time to leave my house
I'll be secure in my fatherhood
B/c I raised my kids from the inside/out
