He sat with regret
after doing 10 years
in the pin.
Missing his boy grow
into a man,
how the system aint
for Robbing him
from his kid.
He try to keep positive,
and make up for lost times.
But his son hate him for
not being there,
when he was beaten
by his mother boyfriend.
There both trouble and
angry, so it's hard to speak.
Tomorrow I must start over
to explain my absent.
He sit at the edge of the bed
and think, my son is 12!
And my life is still at a
block road, how can I
get him to feel and
understand me?
And see that I was
a nockle head,
and wasn't ready
to be a man.
Hours turn to the morning
and he finally come up
with a conclusion.
I'm a father! And
I must do my part to
get him to love me,
like I love him and
listen to my story.
Son, I love you!
And im here now
so let's start right now
to being a father and
a son my blood.
