Despair(Letter to the youth)

My eyes filled with despair
Looking at me for hope
Cause I'd be damned if I do
And I'd be damned if I don't
Yes I cannot change the past and
My futures unknown
So let me live in the moment and see how far that'll go
Eyes filled with despair
Looking at me for hope
Cause I'd be damned if I do
And I'd be damned if I don't
Yes I cannot change the past and
My futures unknown
So let me live in the moment and see how far that'll go

From my heart I gotta address
Want to get this of my chest
Speak my truth and respect
Feel like a life a fucken mess
God put me to the test
Fucked up adolescence
Why I keep on stressing
Why I'm always second guessing
This shit be depressing
I be praying for a blessing
Yes I learnt my lesson
Now I'm counting every second
manifesting what I'm destined
I been practicing and prepping
Yes I set the settting
Using words as a weapon

My eyes filled with despair
Looking at me for hope
Cause I'd be damned if I do
And I'd be damned if I don't
Yes I cannot change the past and
My futures unknown
So let me live in the moment and see how far that'll go
Eyes filled with despair looking at me for hope
Cause I'd be damned if I do
And I'd be damned if I don't
Yes I cannot change the past and
My futures unknown
So let me live in the moment and see how far that'll go

Try to keep me out of trouble
I'm too stubborn I don't listen
See the vision check the mission
Gotta wake up go and get it!
What would you do if you
were stuck in my position
My niggas back in prison
Niggas caught up in the system
I put it all on the line
Plenty nights my momma cried
Don't undermine my storyline
Heavy rebel juvenile
Heavy medal suicide
Realign and redefine
Money line my new design
Calvin Klein my waistline
Ignore my bitches FaceTime
Then call a new one same time
Do or die don't reconcile
She see me getting laid now
Not my slime I pray for mine
You gon see us elevate now
On my grind don't waste my time
LiL Rocky too ahead huh
Niggas don't know what I been through
Moms pain hit me deep
I got a lot to prove
Not a lot to lose
Except for you
