Son, today I'll show you how
To find a way to make everyone smile.
I'll teach you living
Making and breathing...

Don't you ever fight
Without a reason
Think and do what's right...
Have 9 lives like a cat
Don’t use any of them yet
If anyone hurts you 
Remember what I said
Your life is a path
Path full of cats and rats...

If you ever do something bad
Don’t just stand
Make it ok
Don't be afraid of the new day
Always find a different way
Don't follow marked leader
He’ll make you eager
For blood and pain
You’ll feel his words inside your brain...

My son, don't you ever hate
Make your worst enemy your best mate
And remember to forgive
It’s never too late.

Make your dreams come true
See the world in shine and blue,
Listen to your heart and you'll find
That everyone wants to fuck up your mind...

And when you find ''the one''
Thrust her life
She’ll keep you safe 
And carry you in her heart everywhere

When you see abandoned dog
Make him home,
It’ll prove that you're good
That you're kind and helpful

Don't be someone's beating bag
Don’t let them treat you like a rag
Show them your craziness
So they know who they won’t mess...

Go to Church if you can
God's your Boss, God's your man
He's your buddy in need
Do at least one good deed...

Don't cry over stupid thing
Waste tears on nothing
Make your tears worthy
Rare and sympathy...

When you tell this to your kid
He won’t get it 
'cause he's to young
To understand what you mean
By ''You'll have someone to lean ''
I'll always be with you
No matter what
You’re my son...


And last thing...
I'll tell you a secret
Try to keep it
Carry it to the grave
Be bold
'cause fortune favors the brave.

I'm gone, you're reading this
Know that my last wish 
Was to give you my love
My dreams and my hope.
You're all I have...
You're all I've left,
make me proud,
make me DAD.
