Young Scolla - Letter Of Honesty lyrics
rate meI'm from where, mothers hope and the young children dream
of the leap from jester to king, all that falls in between
most never reach the latter tryna make it to the top
but I am proof to show you, you should never stop
tell me you dont hear the future in my voice, the struggle of my past
ambition of my present and know this is gonna last
promised my mama the world and I know she'll be on my ass
if I give up on what I gave up everything for to advance
and I write this to the child I didn't have
as I'm lookin towards tomorrow dodging demons from my past
I remember going thru it scared like am I man enough
to handle what I laid down to do now will I stand tough
will I man up, will I back down,then my mans called
told me, dats that bitch damn problem, how does that sound?
to think I wouldn't make good with the one w/ baby
but what the fuck was I to do as a student at 18
w/ a bright future, plus she wasn't the one
not no hoe gone be the bearer of my daughter or my son
but then I sat and weighed my options, do I hit her and I run
or do plan to be a man and and see my family to come
every saint has a past and every sinner has a future
I write this all while being stoned as medusa
Only to find out th she was tryna play me
thats what happens when you a baby having babies
I swear, I was gonna kill that bitch
scammin for abortion money on some ill ass shit
(what the fuck)
but shit I didn't and I'm here
time is tickin as I near, the only winnin out my peers
So Yeah, I have come to realize with every tribulation
comes a learning experience, just pray and ask for patience
the only thing to save ya, besides God
Know that tears come before triumphs, in life dog
Thats the real, I hope you feel it
like a pothole I have driven
over, that there is the mission, time for the return
of the realest, me and my niggas deliver
before rockin lenses I knew seeing my vision'd be difficult
I've lost many of friends being a real nigga
I just take it as the fake are afraid to deal with ya
better for me as me and success meet
aint no time to address hate, just address me as great nigga
you listening to truth in its rarest form
feeling like a nude muse as I bare it all
I'm the spot for the people that have to bare it
and hope for those who think having its an apparent flaw
listen to my soul as it speaks to you
Its the God in me...as I preach to you
as I preach to you, it is God in me as I speak to you
