Lyrics
Your children are not your children They are sons and daughters of life's longing for itself They come through you but not from you And though they are with you, they belong not to you List the things I love, I couldn't ever begin From the giggle when you're happy to the smell of your skin Every day you surprise me with intelligent things Ready for blessings and lessons your development brings I learn more from you than you could ever learn from me First stеp, first word, first time I heard you breathе It's a feeling beyond comparison Heartbeat sweeter than any song that I'm rapping in In this life I want your happiness and nothing more Feels like we were both born again when we cut the cord Our trauma from the past is a factor in your present But sacrifice our lives for yours, you'd have them in a second Not feeling this close when you smile, kiss and squeeze me Food for the soul, your beautiful spirit feeds me Made us touch our scars again, that process isn't easy My life instead of yours, I would smile and give it freely Through your life I'll watch you grow, but there's one thing you must know You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son One day I'll have to let you go, but you must keep within your soul You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son As I watched your heart beating on the scan I knew you'd be born into things you wouldn't understand I hope I can prepare you for the pain you will withstand And always remember before a man inta insan (you're a human) We are not perfect, sometimes we'll get it wrong Breaks my heart there's things in life we just can't protect you from See the difference between right and wrong, I pray that you can Just know it's my heart that you take in your hand Every day I sit face to face with a walking miracle Not a cord, umbilical, connection more than physical Whatever the weather, the sky is sunny when you smile Wrote this for every parent sitting worried for their child Your eyes are like stars to me, voice is like heaven singing Being with you is like the sweetest dream I've ever been in My moon and my son, that sentence isn't a metaphor You're the beginning, middle and the end we must be better for Through your life I'll watch you grow, but there's one thing you must know You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son One day I'll have to let you go, but you must keep within your soul You can always lean on me, you can always lean on me my son There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear Times when you need some love, those times you will see me there There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear Times when you need some love, those times you will see me here There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear Times when you need some love, those times you will see me there We never knew love like this, we never knew love like this until you blessed us There might be times when you need a hug, times when you need an ear Times when you need some love, those times you will see me here We never knew love like this, we never knew love like this until you blessed us Beautiful boy You're my beautiful boy You're my beautiful boy You're my beautiful boy You're a beautiful boy You're a beautiful boy
