I guide his hands, I show the knife, Teach him the rules that shape our life. He questions, he falters, he learns each day, The lessons I whisper, the price to pay. I hold him close when the night gets near, A hand on his shoulder, a voice he can hear. Shadowed guidance, step by step, Keep the code, and guard each breath. Father and son, in darkness and light, Together we move, through day and night. I balance my heart between love and fear, Show him the way, make the rules clear. The Dark Passenger waits, but I stay in line, I teach him control, the art is mine. Eyes wide, hands steady, Learn the signs, move ready. I am here, I am near, The shadow will guide, never disappear. Shadowed guidance, step by step, Keep the code, and guard each breath. Father and son, in darkness and light, Together we move, through day and night. The code lives on… The code lives on…
