Jayce Correia of Danbury, Connecticut has posted a wonderful video on Youtube showing the positive impact that his rapping has on his eight year old son, Jared, who is severely disabled .
This isn’t the kind of rap you might be thinking of and Jared’s reaction will warm your heart right through to the core.
Check out the uplifting lyrics beneath the fold.
To Jared… Lyrics
Okay little man ain’t no time to cry. Chin up, show that smile!
Head high, show them that pride. Plus you look good in your brand new ride.
Man I couldn’t be prouder. What you must go through every hour.
The height of your strength is as tall as a tower. I mean next to you I feel like a coward.
They put you in a chair but I can help you stand. Anytime that your reach out, I’ll always grab your hand.
To me I think you’re stronger than I am. And they tell me you can’t see but I am worried cos I can.
And wait until your older cos I can be your wingman. We’ll be chasing all the girls while they’re working on their swing dance.
For you I got big plans and like the gym in the summer you got big fans.
But you wouldn’t believe the way your momma loves you. We can all see how she holds and hugs you.
You shine so brightly, will you be up tonight? Yeah, almost likely.
Do I get frustrated? Yeah I might be. But I’ll always be there to hold you tightly.
And as we look at our steps in the sand and they don’t match up, it’s cos every time you fell I picked you back up.
