D.P Da Prophet - Letter To The Future lyrics
rate meI ain’t put this ink on my skin just too look cool
That was my way of putting my pain in a plain view
As a teen if you ain’t smoked the you weren’t cool
Who would have … and clean the draws can stand you
Looking out my window, cause with the word that came to
Bitch … as friends, turn to haters, tryna frame you
It rains in Seattle, well in my city it rains too
Seize the father you seem they keep tryina drain you
Just listen to the mother and the folks that named you
Cause when your homies face the life, they just gonna blame you
And when you cheat on your wife
Child support gonn rape you
Will that one life be worth your kids
Be … to hate you
White girls…cause everyone will rate you
You giving up, must I know the power
Of what faith do
Can’t make it to a different place being the same you
Gotta learn to change but don’t let nobody change you
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
To the young one make it beautiful
Don’t let nobody use ya
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
To the young men
You don’t gotta sell to be an user
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
We born winners, it’s your choice if you’re a looser
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
I will show you that we all have a future
Don’t let nobody tell you that dreams come through
Just remember don’t nobody own you
Cause corporate America, the new plantation
And yeah I’m scared of her, that chick and patient
40 hours a week for 40 years you slaving
Retiring in socials and charity of savings
Just know, together we can make it
Apart we gonan fall but we can hold the foundation
A lot of people treat they manners, if this a jail cell
Gotta learn to break the bars and you can climb the stairwell
Don’t you wanna be somebody when you at your farewell
This my letter to the future, bout to put it in the well
Would you think it’s ok to rob a still
Would you think it’s ok to get on pills
You must think it’s ok to kill, just chill
Stand and living it still, this for real
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
To the young one make it beautiful
Don’t let nobody use ya
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
To the young men
You don’t gotta sell to be an user
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
We born winners, it’s your choice if you’re a looser
This my letter to the future, my letter to the future
I will show you that we all have a future.
