Ever since my adolescence, I envy your success
Here's to you my letter of distress
It seems though I'm depressed
I rather not vent
We saw the world different but set on common grounds
Ever since we was kids you was my role model
Now you seem closer to liquor as you down a bottle
In a matter of time we distanced
Know I never stopped loving you
Back in 07 our Bond was untouchable
Whatever you needed I gave it with passion
We had holes in our shirts before Yeezy fashion
You had my back as I remanence on the orphanage
When my stomach growls I had you
Thats as happy as an orphan gets
I remember when I came to you with bumps and bruises
Found out you broke his arm, I was left with confusion
8 years later pops showed up at the door to take us
And you chose to forget how that man betrayed us
Then he became your favourite in an instant
He told you be a man and you became vicious
Put that knife across the stope top, release it on my skin
My pain became your laughter and you was hurt within
At 9 years I held them tears in as I suffered
I let you hurt me if it makes you feel better
You're my brother
We came out the wound ready to suffocate
I hope to god we don't separate
Out in these streets, yeah
All in these streets to feed
Lord knows I don't want no enemies, yeah
Young n***** in these, ohh
To my punk daddy
I wish you understood the gift you was given
Two beautiful ghetto boys and you chose to pimp em
We sold napkins 5 in the A.M he don't wonder what happed
But if you came back short his fists split you to fractions
Sleepless nights in the shower
Wondering where Ima get his money
Several marks across my naked body I stayed hungry
Pops was a smart man he knew how to make a profit
Who ever made more received love in they pockets
And of course you did, you was his only kid
Taught you to be materialistic and thats what you did
Started purchasing cotton to patch up the wound
Enslaved to the only type of love you could consume
Then came on your confession on why you did it
I don't love this s*** it's the feeling that comes with it
And an absent mother left us without a purpose
You're the reason I treat every woman as if they're worthless
I'll have you know I made the honour roll
I deserve a bravo
I came out you yet you played me worst than Waldo
Even when I crack a joke they put you to use
When they don't find a come back they take shots at you
And I can not defend you I'm left loose
I would mention that you was there for me
I don't own a proof
So raise your glass high to a broken home lets take a sip
The only pop I consider is the one attached to my hip
Out in these streets, yeah
All in these streets to feed
Lord knows I don't want no enemies, yeah
Young n***** in these, ohh
This goes to my mother who left me back in that orphanage
20 years later still searching how unfortunate
Though I'm not sure the circumstances you went through
And how it played out between you two
Im sure you have an explanation for your decision
For every mother/child bond I witness tempting me to switch positions
A part of me feels tormented and bitter sweet
Nonetheless I'm thankful for the life you've given me
I cried tears the day I wrote this, I'm feeling hopeless
I'm hoping once you hear me you take notice
That I'm slowly loosing faith to whoever can relate
Don't loose your grip and try to maintain focus
Orphan boy hold your head high when you speak
If they choose to strike a punch turn the other cheek
These words were tailor maid for you
I hope that they suit you
I love you from the heart
I hope to god i don't loose
Hey man, um
I just wanted to call to let you know that I
I love you and I miss you
Um
Call me when you get this
Alright
Bye
