lirik lagu elijah hope - letter to myself
verse
i know you felt sad, i know you felt mad
like back when you cried with asa ’bout dad
when will he come? where is he at?
couldn’t give answer you ain’t never had
i saw mom suffer his plans
but i’m not mad, no i’m not mad
’til this day swear down i thank dad
’cause the road that he laid, led me to the pad
the pain that you felt brought bars that were rad
melancholy, made your teenage mad
met a mami that made your worst day’s bless
still i remember writing “stressed and depressed”
that’s b.c “exit” if i gotta be real
the bars you wrote swear down i could feel
suicide lines with a pinch of the feels
vibes over rhymes brought a lady to tears
(yeah)
you done a whole-lot
but trust me it ain’t over just yet
you close to your prime
but don’t lose track over checks
keep your mind in the word
and stick up-close to connect (that’s god)
don’t gain the whole world
if you gotta lose your soul just to get it
get it?
remember why we here, remember why we spitting (spitting)
one time, for the time, that the labels didn’t listen
two times, two times grat-tude over blessings
i’m about to bring it in for my fam and my bredrin’
bredrin
if you ain’t keeping me in check
why you with me when i’m flexing? (flexing)
i don’t need no fake friends
i ain’t god, don’t want praising (praise him)
so my circle stay small
i don’t need no attention
come against me and mine
and my god will have vengeance (vengeance)
ah
this a letter to myself
don’t forget what we doing here
keep your eyes on the prize
one day you gon’ see that light
ah
this a letter to myself
don’t forget what we doing here
keep your eyes on the prize
one day you gon’ see that light
