[Hook x2: Shyna]

I'm writing, a letter

I'm writing, writing a letter to my loved ones

[Trae]

Dear Dinkie, more it what happened everytime I think about you

It's like the world been on my shoulders, everyday I been without you

My way of living ain't healthy, but I'm trying to be a man

I swear to God I'm fin to lose my cool, and people don't understand

Cause they be coming at me with drama, not knowing I'm going through it

I've been running from suicide, but they pushing me to do it

My nigga I'm telling you, I be needing you by my side

But when I see Danny Boo face, I be knowing I gotta ride

Deep inside it's tearing me up, since I'm praying it'll be ok

I mash the gas a hundred percent, till we together one day

You got a nephew on the way, I forgot to tell you the news

That mean just one more part of us, that'll give them hoes the blues

Our baby brother Jay'Ton, been doing his thang

And since he the youngest, you know mama won't hesitate to complain

And it's the same old thang, one day I'm coming to get you

As long as I'm in these streets, I promise they'll never forget you

[Hook x2]

[Trae]

What's happening baby girl, it's been a long time

You know I'ma rep you forever, with every word coming out this hard time

Lori, I'm never gon forget the day that you died

I couldn't cry, but all the pain inside was killing my pride

I had to be strong, for the sake of Dinkie in his cell

I knew he would lose it, missing you is what put him through hell

Your unborn child, didn't even get to see the day

I never understood why, the Lord'll let em come take you away

And I turned out how you wanted me to be, somebody special

Made the Lord bless you, now you don't have to deal with this pressure

On earth I really miss you, reminiscing bout how we use to be

I was your brother, you was my sister for L-I-F-E

My mission ain't over, till the day that I get the nigga that did it

Whether living or dead, somebody he close to fin to feel it

And I mean it, cause he took one of my loved ones

Now I'm losing focus, writing a letter to my loved one

[Hook x2]

[Trae]

Brenda what happened, Donnie we gotta keep the Lord first

The paining is burst, got me visualizing us living life in the worst

Way, I try to smile but it be hard sometimes

Knowing that you facing murder, due to the fact these niggas be out of line

I can't explain life, but still I understand

Everything happened for a reason, just part of becoming a man

And I can't tell you how I feel, when I heard that your mama passed

Knowing the last time you seen her, was in visitation through glass

Lord knows keyendation, ain't need to be in your life

So I'ma mash it to the fullest, and make sure they iight

And every night I'm on my knees, to ask the Lord to help you out

Inside my mind without a doubt, I know he bout to let you out

But don't you lose faith, cause faith is important at this time

And I'm your dog to the end, no matter what I'ma be around

South Klique forever, through the sunny and rainy weather

I love you my nigga, that's the reason I'm writing this letter

[Hook x2]

[Shyna]

I'm missing you, I'm mis-sing you
