This is a letter to my future son I hope you know that you the one Hope you know the list is short of things from which you should run Yeah I hope you love whoever you become You’ve been burdened with a lot of shit that you ain’t done shit to deserve But I don’t wanna give you lists of things you should shun I’d rather give you the facilities to choose Understand you’s also born with lots of privileges to use as you see fit If you keep it to you can’t lie I’d be disappointed But just promise me you won’t be on some misinformed shit Seek truth and make peace with it Don’t do that backwards Don’t take their word on what you need to know Learn how tax works Before you judge harshly learn how to act first I bring you to a world designed to disenchant your brilliance Riddle you with guilt ‘cause they can’t commodify innocence And I hope that you livin’ it ‘cause there’s love in the midst of it Hope you wash down your fear with cups filled to the brim with it I think a lot of dads hope their son’ll be like them All I can think about’s the ways I hope you’re different Your father talked a lot I hope you listen Your father let his stresses win in ways I hope is distant to you SongtexteAnd don’t let nobody older try to live shit through you That’s including me This world’s for you to see There’ll only ever be one you So decide who you want you to be And live beautifully And if these gotta be my last days last days I just hope I left the world a little better And I’ve been given a whole lot so if they tax me With less time to achieve my endeavours Just know I was loved I was loved I was loved I was loved I was loved That’s enough for me Said I was loved I was loved I was loved I was loved I was loved Even when it was tough to be Said I was loved This is a letter to whoever hears it I know you tryin’ you been dyin’ for some better years And it seem like they never near And feel like you eleven beers in You runnin’ out of buckets just to go and let your tears drip Take a breath and close your eyes now I know it be mad hard to take it easy Know you don’t relate to words they provide now And even when they kinda right they just make it cheesy But without you this world wouldn’t be this world You are we this world that is ours do your thing Leave your charger at home Don’t belong to your phone It get hard shit I know Know our habits be bad but they all that we know They make us us and it’s hard to let go I been the same with the yearns But if you be you Someone’d love you for it That’s all I’ve learned to be true And if these gotta be your last days last days Hope you know you left the world a little better And I’ve been given a whole lot so if they tax me With less time to achieve my endeavours I’ma tell you you were loved You were loved You were loved You were loved Even when shit was tough Just know you got love You got love You got love You got love You got love You got love I just hope that’s enough The closer I get to being happy The more I’m afraid to die young The more I stop tryin’ to find meaning The more I start to find love Perseverance, gratitude The shit that I’m defined of Fuck the cheers and platitudes That latitude won’t find us Grouchy dude ain’t mad at you per se It’s just my mind stuck on how we let it all get so blurry A lot to say before I go I’m so hurried But if I don’t make it don’t worry don’t worry I had love I had love I had love I had love And that’s enough for me Said I was loved Aus Songtexte Mania
