Questman - Fatherly Advice Lyrics

This one goes out
To the New Abdulwadud
Son of Questman AKA Abdulwadud

Hush little baby
Don't you cry
Baba's gonna flow for you
A really nice rhyme
The type of rhyme
That will rock your mind
I will always keep it real
To every child of mine
My dear son
Let me guide you
On this journey
The true path is straight
Yet so many doors
It can be confusing
Watch out for
The uncanny trickery
Of any devilry
Spooks hide in the shadow
Snakes disguise as friendlies
Yet the real enemy
Will be minds ability
To stand up truthfully
Even in the face of
Any adversary
I'll admit some times
It can get very scary
Knowledge of self
The greatest weapon
For those of bravery
By wise like a serpent
Soft like a dove
Sting like a needle
Never turn your back
On those you love
Heed my advice
Dear son
And the God in you
Will manifest below
What is above

Fatherly advice
Words to pass along
Let me show you a way
I can teach you
Right from wrong
I can guide you to the water
Either drink or carry on
If you have respect for your mother
Then Heed the Words of my song

Fatherly advice
Words to pass along
Let me show you a way
I can teach you
Right from wrong
I can guide you to the water
Either drink or carry on
This path you must choose
To walk upon

Speaking of the above
Knowledge holds the remedy
Study
Intently the wisdom
Words of Divinity
The Way of the Ancestors
Intuition
Upon the path of Submission
To
Alif to the
Lam to the
Lam to the
Ha
Allah Akbar
Keep the light on
To get you far
Honor your father
And your mother
And one day
You will rise high above the stars
Every night and -day

No matter what they -say
This is the righteous -way
The God is One
My Beloved
My dear son
Manifest the truth
And half the job is done
The other half
You will find in
A righteous wife
One willing to take your lead
One who sees in you
The way to a blessed seed
With respect and honor
Paving the way for a new family
Success will always be found
In Peace, Love and unity
Turn the I to We
This be the secret language
Of the heavenly
Our origin is heavenly

Legendary words to live by
Some days life will
Not be easy
Yet even if you do cry
Never despair
Breathe
After you take that breath
Wipe your eyes
Never let your enemy see
You shed those tears
My dear
Sometimes you just
Have to fight
And if you have to fight
Use the fist
The words
Or the heart
But you must fight
Strategically
Be the first to show mercy
Yet sometimes mercy
Must come in the form of
Fist-to-face thrashing
This is father's love
A real hug
Preparing you for life
Just as it be
Wise and Determined
You must be
The best version of you
Always remembering
The key to the Hereafter
Truth shall set you free

Fatherly advice
Words to pass along

Right from wrong

Either drink or carry on
If you have respect for your father
Then Heed the Words of my song
