Letter to my son

Letter to my son 
Son
 there is a reason why life is fair 
Despite the other colours in life
Yet life only chose to be fair 
So do yourself no harm 
Have the balls and courage 
to be who you want to be 
There is no better way 
So Stay out of troubles 
cos the street got no love son 
I tell you no lie 
Cos I have been there before 
Don’t call a night when the day is on 
Don’t point fingers when your eyes are dirty 
But protect yourself from every attack 
Revenge if necessary 
Be aware of illusion and manipulation 
Be honest and royal but not a fool 
Remember life is fair not red
So work hard for your self 
Be somebody son 
Be humble but be sensitive 
Trust everyone to be who they are 
Trust a snake to be a snake 
Trust a lion to be a lion 
Don’t sleep and dream only 
Go out chase them 
I repeat again be somebody son 
You will succeed yes I bless yours days 
God will always guide and protect you out there in a cold world 
Your destiny is in your hands
God bless you son
