Open Letter

Yeah
Dear, Dear, Dear
I know you're tired
Still got a long to way to go but
You done came a long, long way
From where you began
And I'm proud of you, I really am
You're on your way there homie
Don't stop now

Feel like I'm running out of time
Starting to see gray strands on my mom hair
Warming up cause I still ain't in my prime era
Hope one day I can tour the world
Spit all of my rhymes and
See bitches fall in line yeah
When that day comes, hope I don't cry
Reminiscing on the old times, oh my
Whole fam sleeping on the same bed
Break bread, but you ain't got to worry now
We'll get the dough ma
This beat was yelling use me
J.Cole please don't sue me
Cause I was just like you
A little boy who got into
This Hip Hop shit, he did
Fell in love and dreamed big
But then he grew
Running for the gold
The world untied his shoe
Got him on his knees
So much he begging please
But nobody would answer to his plea
He felt so weak
And learned all about life the hard way
Now do you understand why he is writing all day
Its cause they never got a car
Cause that bitch who broke his heart
And being so pussy lead to people
always stealing his part
Nah, they ain't ready
This is years of eating Mom's Spaghetti
Please hold back your tears
We ain't never switching gears
When I make it rain money on them like Confetti
Yeah, I'll be different by then
But I won't forget that little kid named Wyben
When I rap on stage and people scream my name
And momma drive a range, he'll be smiling by then
I know it's hard to stay focused
When you're still trying to be sober
The demons getting closer
But God turned my tongue into a sword
So I killed them, now angels whisper on both shoulders

And I don't know
I don't know what the future holds
But I'm thankful for today so
I'll just keep holding on
I'll just keep
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
I guess I'll just keep holding on
Cause life is full of wonder
I'll just keep
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
I guess I'll just keep holding on
Cause life it really matters

Yeah, I got some stories to tell
How now I believe in Heaven
Cause I have been through Hell
Brainwashed by the media, the lies that they tell
How I got addicted to all the ideas they sell
How getting bitches was the way to keep score
How you could get pussy for Chanel & Dior
How money is the thing
That makes the world revolve
How I wish we could take it back
And didn't evolve but
Change always has to take part
I hope you listen when I speak
And you speak from the heart
It'll never be easy but it won't always be hard
So get on & keep going homie
Reach for the stars
The whole world is your oyster
When you make it brother
Don't forget the boys sir
And don't forget the girls too
It's good to save money,
But don't forget to splurge too
Remind yourself to give back
If you don't get the urge to
Don't try to do it all at once
You ain't superman
Don't listen when they say you dumb
You ain't stupid man
When you want somethin' bad
And you give it all you have
And you get it, you'll be the one stooping man
And they'll come in right back
Sayin "Hey, I'm sorry I was stupid man"
I'm just saying, shit is crazy
Look, bout damn time we get this shit right
Free ourselves from the cage
Spread our wings and take flight
It could get dark but don't worry, I got light
It'll take time, just hold on through the night
And don't ask me anything cause

I don't know
I don't know what the future holds
But I'm thankful for today so
I guess I'll just keep
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
I guess I'll just keep holding on
Cause life is full of wonder
I guess I'll just keep
Holding on
Holding on
Holding on
I guess I'll just keep holding on
Cause life it really matters
Yeah
La di da di da di da
Yeah fuck I can't sing for shit
Now they all fucking criticize me cause I can't sing
Fuck all y'all
2023
Comeback
