Solomon
Only you have made my bad days turn good
You was the only one to put a smile on my face
You was the one that know I can always come to when I was down
And know, I saw you in the crib; how I have a smile again
I thank Most High for you, cuz without you
I don’t know what I would do
Man, I feel good just to be a father
To be a father, man, it’s no better feeling in the world
And I have to do my part to make sure that you have a father
I know that to be true
I love you
I thank Most High for you every day that you’re mine
For my son
Shine
All I am, flesh and blood
I’ve been blessed to feed myself with the
Creations from my mind and hand
God has blessed me with a son that shines
Shine for me
May you never be lonely
My mother and father, my vessel to this
Blessed earth, I thank you for my life
All praises are due to the Creator of all
Things true
I thank You for my life and I praise You
I’ve been rich, then poor
Only God, I fear for your mercy
I cherish your great hope
Fame and glory come and go
The love of people come and go
All Creation
I pray for a kind and gentle imagination
All Creation
All praises to the Creator of all things true
Creator of all forms, the expanding universe
The evolution, flowers, trees, birds, fish, me, you…
Oh man, it’s like, um, within your everyday travels, you gotta like glide, man
You gotta like glad through it, because, um, there’s a lot of ills going on in the world, man
And you…you have a choice though, you know what I mean, in what you really wanna do
You wanna go that route or not
