Dear Nate

Yeah everyone wants to make it to the top
What I mean is no one really wants to feel lost
I'm telling you now, cause I can relate
Put in the work, everyday
And you will find that it will be ok
When you're born you're born looking like your parents
But when you die you look like the weight of your decisions
What I'm trying to say is everyone is born different
But you choose how you wanna live it
They say I'm from mars
Pointing at me listen and laugh
Look at the bars
Straight from the heart
Putting in effort I'm tryna be better so never belittle my drive
I go for miles
Running on nothing but will and desire
So putting me down is like adding more fuel to the fire yeah
It's funny how you have your inspirations yeah
Then the ones who hate you go and call you an imitation
The only thing you're hating is my dedication
Yes I learnt from the best man I call it education yeah

I don't know if he hears me or not
I've got this song that I think he should play yeah
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave yeah
I don't know if he hears me or not
But if he can I just want him to know
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave yeah

I would jump into a time machine they don't exist
If I could I would go back when I was just a kid
And tell him to make good habits but I doubt that would happen
It was said me years ago and now I see the damage
Laziness is trait all of us have yeah
Some people own it, others don't fight back no
They the same people calling you trash
What separate us, I actually go and get off my back yeah
At twenty you're dropping out, then lose your girl and you're desperate
Staring off the edge of a building you know your mum is stressing
Her only son won't pick up, or even leave a message
Talk to God but you close your ears to listening
Moving on you write a letter to your future self
You put in effort that no one really cares about
Then delete your album just because you're doubting
And now you wonder whether or not you should keep on rapping

I don't know if he hears me or not
I've got this song that I think he should play yeah
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave yeah
I don't know if he hears me or not
But if he can I just want him to know
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave yeah

I don't know if he hears me or not
I've got this song that I think he should play yeah
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave yeah
I don't know if he hears me or not
But if he can I just want him to know
I've been looking for that man in the hoodie and I'm grateful for the words he gave
