It is not how they come into the world
It's how they turn out
Raising responsible, great achievers
Is what good parenting is all about
No one wants a lazy child
Playing video games all the day long
They want a well rounded sports minded
Player, who knows how to fit in, belong
....but, only, as a leader
The losers can be followers
But a child who swells a parents heart
Is the dreamer, visionary
Who works hard to set himself apart
Too many average Joe's out there
Living week by week
No savings or long term goals
Just enough earnings to seal the leaks
...in holey pockets
Fame isn't as important
As a name that is respected and known
And a nice big farm is needed
To display all the great seeds that have been sown
In fertile, top of the line ground
No barren land to furrow in vain
Some miracle grow is nice
To maximize the gain
...without killing self
If you do everything right
Grandchildren will play in your plantation yard
While you swing on the front porch
With the absolute proof, you worked hard
Making a life of ease and peace
Health, wealth and family to crown your head
Never once considering
The children are only playing nice, til you're dead
....and they can get their reward
