The Teachings of Brown Skinned Bruce and Red Bone Lee

How come what it takes for some
it don't take for others
It took me years to appreciate the teachings of my father and the patience of my mother
A hard head makes a soft behind
None of my other siblings showed their ass like mine
Spare the rod spoil the child
I had daddy keepin spare rods all around the house
You get more bees with honey than you do with vinegar
Mother would sing
I preferred the vinegar cause at the time all I knew was
bees sting
Whatever is done in the dark always comes to light
dad would say
I thought I was smart and unscrewed the bulb one day
If you tell us the truth first, we wont get mad
-honestly
Thank you Mother for being mom
Thank you Father for being dad
