Guidance (Explicit) - Guru's Jazzmatazz

Dedicated to my son

That's about to be born

So by the time you people hear this record

My son'll be born

And I gotta teach him about life

Listen to my little man

You can never have too little plans

Always bring your game direct

Cut out the middle man

Life is full of sacrifice

For truth you might have to fight

Someone'll bring you down

'Cause they ain't livin' right

Be sure to use your mind

Though look for all the signs yo

Don't want to make a move too quick

And get left behind yo

Be in command of whatever you encounter

Appreciate your blessings

Son you'll see what it amounts to

Obtainin' your goals

Maintainin' control

Self respect helps you to protect your soul

Never give up always be ready to try

Walk your own walk and keep your head to the sky

Little thing now here you are

Starin' at me with those baby eyes

All you do is sleep eat and cry

But one day you're gonna be askin' me why

Everything I know

I'm gonna tell you about

Anything I don't

You'll figure out

'Cause livin' is learnin' and learnin' is livin'

And then you pass it on

And to my home boys who clearly understand

What it really takes to be a man

And what it means to be the head of fam

The ups and downs of life plus the choices we make

Causes to reevaluate directions we take

And bein' up in the club is mad fun

'Til they act dumb

And everyone still packs

Hence by the nights all make warm warrents

It's time now for us to seperate

The mediocre from the great

Keep all the jokers from the game

I've played my position

So why don't you try to play yours

I've made my decision

Plus you're in my prayers

My life is changed now

Plus I got a shorty now

Mad responsibilities

It's like

I'm almost forty now

All the young girls wanna swing

My wifey says

She wants a ring

I wonder what the next days are gonna bring

We must live and fight for the right

Causes and be ready to die

I love you kid so keep your head to the sky

Ringing up ranging now here you are

Starin' at me with those baby eyes

All you do is sleep eat and cry

But one day

You're gonna be askin' me why

Everything I know

I'm gonna tell you about

Anything I don't

You'll figure out

'Cause livin' is learnin' and learnin' is livin'

And then you pass it on

Baby child did you know

Every since you fell out of the heavens

You make me wanna grow

So I'll could share with you everything

Make little girls and boys

Grow up to be kings and queens

Little thing now here you are

Starin' at me with those baby eyes

All you do is sleep eat and cry

But one day you're gonna be askin' me why

Everything I know I'm gonna tell you about

Anything I don't

You'll figure out

'Cause livin' is learnin' and learnin' is livin'

And then you pass it on

Little thing now here you are

Starin' at me with those baby eyes

All you do is sleep eat and cry

But one day you're gonna be askin' me why

Everything I know I'm gonna tell you about

Anything I don't

You'll figure out

'Cause livin' is learnin' and learnin' is livin'

And then you pass it on

Never with me

Never with me

Never with me

I'll keep you

Keep with you

Never never with me

Every little thing

Never with me

Never with me

Never with me
