Our Father
Saul Williams

(spoken/sound clip)nnI just want to talk about a good father, now comingnFrom me if you where to personallynLook at my life, you would ask thenQuestion what do you know about a good father?nAnd that would be a fair question, because one ofnThe statements i have written on my notesnHere today is that men need examples andnThat’s not holy men, all of us are helped by examples.nBut it does seem that as men we feel better whennOther men show us that they are mannEnough to do whatever it is that we havenHesitancy in doing, whether it is cook, sew maybe sit or tonShout, clap our hands, cry.nWe sometimes can't do it until wenSee other men who have lost themselvesnIn the praise of god and in life.nSo it would certainly be a fair question, on thisnFather’s day to ask what do you know about a good father.nNow when i say father i am speaking of one whonIs the guardian or biological male in your life.nWho takes you out with them, who teachesnYou and gives you the instructions to follow.nProverbs talks about the son or daughter followingnThe instructions of the father, well certainly there is nonEquivication about that, that’snWonderful, howe'er, in order to follow ones instructionsnThey most know what they are doing.nWe ask sociologically why are there sonMany messed up families, what’s the problem?nWell in most of those cases, those childrennHave no or little example to follow.nThere are exceptions but in most of those casesnThey have little or no example to follow.nA good father is more than one whonProvides shelter, food and body coverage.nNow i pray that those fathers who arenHere and those mothers who had tonBe fathers also and everyone once in a while we findnSome fathers who had to be mothers also:nn(Saul)nOur father which art in st. frances hospital for hypotension.nOur father which art in jumpsuits and prisons, federal detention.nOur father which art in dark bars and alleys, lethal injection.nOur father which art in denial and delusion. this cannot happen again.nnHallowed be thy. state your name for the record.nHallowed be thy. state your name for the record.nHallowed be thy. state your name for the record.nHallowed be thy. state your name for the record.nHallowed be thy. state your name for the record.nHallowed be thy. state your name for the record. selves disraeli end.nnDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you hear us now.nDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you hear us now.nDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you feel us now.nDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you heel us now.nnWhen i was young i cried when i found out i couldn’t have childrennSoon after i started rhyming no one was nicer than me,nI mean it up state, new yorknI learned to beat box in my tree housenSounded good out therenWould you rather hear about guns fearnOr broken glass in the tenementnShould i rob to make you fear me now.nDear goddess can you hear me now clear thenWay and prepare me now dear goddess can you hear me now.nnDear goddess we made this breaknBeat just for you as an offering, can you hear us now.nDear goddess we made thisnBreak beat just for you as an offering, can you heel us now.nnI’m suppose to be less of an mc because i never sold a kil(o).nI sold my homework butnYou’ all nigger’s were to busy hustling to donThe dome work now you can only rhyme aboutnHow you’re stealing chrome work or your cell phone jerknChange your topic, damn i'm suppose to be prayingnI got to stop it.nnDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you hear us now.nDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering, can you hear us now.nDear goddess we made this break beat just for younAs an offering an offering.
