Where would I be,
Without my Father.
I know where I wouldn’t be,
I wouldn’t be here.
I couldn’t be here!
Simply Because,
It takes a FATHER,
Not a Village.
It takes a MAN,
Not an Idea.
It takes an Event,
Not a Speech.
It takes coming together,
Not apart.
It takes HIS SEED,
To get US Started,
To get US Here!
A chance at LIFE,
A chance to LIVE.
So to all you FATHERS,
The GOOD ones,
The BAD ones,
The Was – Never – Around ones.
If you never do anything else – Anything at ALL.
The ONE BIG THING you did do –
The ONE THING that only YOU could do –
IS ME.
