Letter To A Younger Me

I swear it's no more playing small
Tighten up your laces
Now we playing ball
I seen you doubt yourself
For way too long
As I send this message to you
Hope you know that you can take it off
The biggest burden on your shoulders
Know it isn't yours
You used to hide behind a mask
Like you breaking laws
But you was scared to show your spark
Gotta heal your heart

You know I trust you
So I know you trust yourself
Even when you in that space
Where the weed don't help
When I look you in your face
I can see your wealth
But the mirror can't replace
What it takes to liberate
Yeah you got a big heart
But gotta protect it
Just cause you tell it like it is
Don't mean it's respected
Once they gain access
To your greatest asset
They abuse it excessive
But you due for the lesson
I'm talking boundaries
So you can hold yourself
Accountably
And every time you feel alone
You can count on me
Look inside yourself
And you bound to see
The reason why you never doubted me
Don't be scared to make a choice
It's a lesson or a blessing
Either way you have a voice
Either way you gone go
Where you 'sposed to go
And once you learn from mistakes
Then you bound to grow
Like you found a rose
Come straight up out the concrete
And never leave empty space
On your time sheet
Put the work in
Until your dimes meet
Up to make enough
To live it up
Inside the Don Suite
Yeah
I'm talking vacay's for long stays
I seen you make haste with long days
Yeah
So you know what you deserve
You ever wanna talk
Please don't resist the urge
Sincerely
Sincerely
