I Believe in You

This was something I wrote in honor of my son.

I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!

　

I BELIEVE IN YOU

The real you, the one you hide

The who, the you; that you know you are

The man, the boy, the child inside

The you; with laughter in your heart trying to get out



I BELIEVE IN YOU

I know your heart is true

Your kindness and warmth is like a quiet storm

That embraces us like a pair of strong arms

Your strong black stature, your deep loving nature        Million Black Men March

Your caring fatherly spirit

Your loving words

Touches us like a warm kiss of mist across the lips


I BELIEVE IN YOU

The beauty that I see, the love that I feel

I know you’re a strong black man who can deal

As I know your passions is real


I BELIEVE IN YOU


Just look inside you will see what you’ve overcome

And that your life isn’t done

You can do anything if you put your mind to it

Just conquer your fear and do it


I BELIEVE IN YOU

What you have to give

What you have yet to receive

That you cannot leave


I BELIEVE IN YOU


Your life's foundation is strong

Your heart is pure

With real self- love I know you can endure

And your life will take off and soar

Believe in yourself, like I believe in you!


I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!
