Lyrics My Padawan - Master Wiz

The day he was born the Angels formed a bond beyond stars
But sanctioned by God
"Not getting along" was me and his mom's song that we sing to this day
Hate? Just blow away like smoke from Cheech & Chong's bong
Listen, my son is mad gifted not to mention he's Force sensitive
More intricate than your average teen
That seems different than the average seed
That seems to grow deliberate
With him being a human being that's gleaming, shining, and glowing
Reflecting to me life's secret meaning
Who said that perfectness can not be repeated
If two perfect kids exist then I achieved it
Cause he's a genius
Don't believe it meet Braeden and I promise you'll see it
Stay seated when witnessing achievements he's reaching
Can't believe it?
He's the reason I can't be defeated never depleted
Yo, he's the reason I can face any season
You'll get it, my kid's are the reason for all reasons
We've been weaving through time leaving the time we in
Notice both my kids are the reason I'm still breathing... that's love

My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs
My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs

When I was young, I was the rap version of Vader
That's why I taught my son about lightsabers and lasers
Proton phasers from Star Trek he learned later
We would talk about how to walk about amongst the haters
They don't phase us not at all not involved with creating us
They all talk, aint breaking us
Watch 'em shakin' up as my Padawan's on the battle front
Making 'em add it up
Laugh it up while Braden debating 'em hip hop songs that he likes
I taught him and taught him right
So he likes mc's that get busy on mics
The Nas, the Black Thoughts
Believe in the hype
Even the Chip Fu's, the Rugged Mans
Those still spittin' it nice like it's '99 or '95
Hindsight is 20 20 so when Braeden is 20
He'll be the source of their envy
But hopefully most of them close'll be friendly
Stay away from enemies that try cypher his energy
The perfect gift that God sent me
I mean he turned me into a father instantly
Braeden and Trinity, the best fit for me and vice versa
That's how I know it was meant to be

My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs
My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs

He's a driven kid, in fact Cadillac driven
Which answers why I'm in the relaxed daddy livin'
Chilling, not worry about him at all
Be there if he falls though
If he calls then I'm all in it
Because the liars try to say the dad role's expired
If so, it wasn't in my contract when I was hired
And my boss is higher than yours say hi to the lord
My kids'll leave yours inspired of course listen
After divorce, I'm glad to report the kids are just fine
Despite the remorse probably better for it
Forced to move forward
Top of the forest, the sky is the limit
Teach them to reach for it over the clouds soaring
I can do it in my sleep, eyes closed and snoring
Parenting? Nah son, it's harder that
But the honest true fact that's an absolutely blast and rewarding
No metaphors for it, it is what it is
All of it important... can't ignore it
Never a boring moment
My son? I adore him
Give him the means to see the whole world and explore it

My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs
My balance was wrong before my Padawan was born
Before I taught him the ways of the Jedi amongst the stars
Amongst the stars
Amongst the gods
The life lessons was embedded in my songs
