Dear Alexandra
Dear Alexandra
I know we ain't end on the best of terms but like
Yeah I just really gotta get this off my chest you know?
Shit where do I start?
Look
Yesterday was crazy swear I had an epiphany
Sometimes the silence be sounding louder than symphonies
When it's me myself and I, I still pray to the Trinity
I ain't seen you since infancy and I swear that it gets to me, look
My father leaving was beyond my comprehension
Then he shows up for my birthday just to escalate the tensions
What he told me that day fucked with my digestion
Said I had a baby sister that he had forgot to mention, look
Bridges burn, tables turn, you live and you learn
When your heart is freezing cold that's when it leave a burn
Now this the life I was given but not the one I deserve
Know you never asked to be on this Earth, check it
I thought I'd write you this letter to make me feel better
I've weathered the storm
You seen what I'm on
Different moms
But the same father and he doing us wrong
Fighting the feeling I never belonged
So can we talk about it?
Dear Alexandra
This yo big brother talking
I know we ain't spoken in like 15 years
And I know this damn near impossible to fix
I'm just hoping you'll write me back
You know that feeling when you wishing you could rewind?
Or better yet the feeling praying you could read minds?
Born a sinner why Daddy ain't home for dinner? Woah
Came to find out he was cheating on his free time
Conversations with my mother we gon' be fine
Drowning in our sorrow from the City by the Seaside
I need some me time
That you and me time
Father Jesus take the wheel I'm looking for a peace sign
I was blinded 'til I learned to see with three eyes
Know you got your version but I swear to God you need mine
That pussy feline
Giving us a steep climb
Happy he was taking off like Jordan at the free line
'Cause I ain't really need him bringing all his drama
All the trauma he inflicted when he was beating my momma
Praying that some karma catches up to him mañana
I just wanna be the change shit I'm hopeful like Obama, uh
And I don't really mean to harm or offend
See I'm calm and collect I ain't stupid I know
That the reason I was visiting a shrink
Is the same person watching you grow
That's how the story goes
Ain't it so?
Baby sis and older bro
Capulets to Romeo
Tea of Heaven fuck a rose
I don't believe Pinocchio
Daddy growing old
So one day Daddy gon' go
When it's all said and done
Baby girl you not alone, uh
Human being yet my blood run cold
And if I ever see my father again, it's no parole
Fuel to the fire that ignite my soul
Dear Alexandra with a last name like my own
Let's go
Dear Alexandra
Forgive me for I know we share our differences
But we also share the same blood
I think I finally understand that now
Progress
Human being yet my blood run cold
And if I ever see my father again, it's no parole
Fuel to the fire that ignite my soul
Dear Alexandra with a last name like my own
Let's go
I know we ain't end on the best of terms but like
