DO AS I SAY AND NOT AS I DO, were the words often used by my father
But is seemed to me,
It was a one way street
Cos i was left to tie my own shoes, and fold my own collar
but still DO AS I SAY AND NOT AS I DO he would holler
felt like it was the excuse
he would use
when he did not want to bother
DO AS I SAY AND NOT AS I DO seemed hypocritical
Till i learnt the true meaning, and it is so deep its lyrical
he wanted me to do what he could not
cos to him i was his miracle
and he did not want me to limit my self to his potential
he wanted me to exceed
did not want me to follow
he wanted me to lead
cos what he was
was not good enough for me
