| I believe you become who you were
|
| When you’re old, but you get it quite late
|
| Mr Future can you send a letter my way?
|
| I’ma have a guess what the letter might say
|
| If you could see who you were to become
|
| Do you think you would do the same thing?
|
| When it comes to girls would you play the same game?
|
| When a baby girl’s gonna take on your name
|
| If the future you could go and write a letter to yourself
|
| Imagine all the shit that it’d say
|
| Makes me wonder if you reckon it’d help
|
| In the way that you treat girls and the difference it’d make
|
| I wonder if you would switch it up and respect women
|
| Instead of tellin' all these lies just for sex with 'em
|
| There’s nothing wrong with having sex, but what’s being a dog
|
| Is you leadin' 'em on just so you’ll get with 'em
|
| Would you hit then kick her out so she’s all alone
|
| Instead of doing what’s really right and walk her home?
|
| Would you call 'em bitches? |
| Would you call 'em hoes?
|
| Or would you be riddled with guilt that you called 'em both?
|
| 'Cause when you go and have a baby girl you call your own
|
| Those words, what if someone went and called your daughter those?
|
| I know learnin' from your past is important though
|
| I just think there’s certain little things that you oughta to know
|
| I believe you become who you were
|
| When you’re old, but you get it quite late (quite late)
|
| Mr Future can you send a letter my way? |
| (my way)
|
| I’ma have a guess what the letter might say
|
| If you could see who you were to become
|
| Do you think you would do the same thing? |
| (same thing)
|
| When it comes to girls would you play the same game? |
| (same game)
|
| When a baby girl’s gonna take on your name
|
| Maybe I will see you later
|
| I’ll see you later
|
| Maybe I will see you later
|
| I’ll see you later
|
| When you’re young as fuck you run amok, always fuckin' something up
|
| It’s funny though, that attitude eventually will come undone
|
| If your stomach’s rumblin' and churning like there’s something up
|
| That’s the beginning of you learnin' how to trust your gut
|
| If you’re hurtin' just be open, never suck it up
|
| Force it out, homie, 'cause there’s none above your mothers love
|
| Back up what your brother does, always bring each other up
|
| Make sure your father’s proud of everything his son’s become
|
| I realise your guard’s up and that you stubborn, but
|
| Listen to your fam when they tellin' you you fuckin' up
|
| Believe in yourself with no doubt, you’re number one
|
| Fuck shootin' for the fence, go ahead and touch the sun
|
| When it comes to life, if I had to go and sum it up
|
| The meaning of it all to me is simple: love and love
|
| I know shit can sound corny though
|
| To me it’s real as fuck and somethin' that you oughta know
|
| I believe you become who you were
|
| When you’re old, but you get it quite late (quite late)
|
| Mr Future can you send a letter my way? |
| (my way)
|
| I’ma have a guess what the letter might say
|
| If you could see who you were to become
|
| Do you think you would do the same thing? |
| (same thing)
|
| When it comes to girls would you play the same game? |
| (same game)
|
| When a baby girl’s gonna take on your name
|
| Maybe I will see you later
|
| I’ll see you later
|
| Maybe I will see you later
|
| I’ll see you later
|
| So when you go and find your own wife you need to have your own lives
|
| Have each others backs so you both strive, ayy
|
| What’s so important though is having your alone time
|
| But even more knowin' that you don’t mind, ayy
|
| A life you cosign, live’s that you both like
|
| Never watchin' life as it goes by, ayy
|
| What you got together’s crucial that you both thrive
|
| Otherwise the shit is gonna nosedive, ayy |
