Dear Young Boy

[Intro]
For my lil' homie, ya dig? Right up the street
NBA YoungBoy remind me of me when I was a young boy out there getting it in
Yeah, bruh, look, I like ya style bro, thought ya know
Just wanna give ya some OG to BG game, ya dig?
I wish I had someone really true to do the same for me

[Chorus]
Dear young'n, they made me do this bid and I ain't did nothin'
When we did run it, our conversation really did somethin'
Life is real funny, ain't right, but, you ain't in they sight until you got money
I told ya I could see it comin', but, you ain't no dummy
You was on point boy, no stunt'n, a little setback, but, you still function
Still made money, made no assumptions, kept it gully kept it hundrеd
Hard times you learned from, it just likе I done it
Hope ya a lil' blunted, smoke one, choke one, chill off, let's run it

[Verse 1]
I might pop the Molly with Molly
Been high, but, the higher I get I can't get these evil thoughts up out my mind
Inside in my mind is like riot, I'm never quiet no matter what kind of
Drugs I take or I tried
I only buy it for the sake of what I just told you, pride, that is my only desire
That's fire don't try it
Even though I know pops get high, might die, might cry, I just want to be normal, why?
But, I know I'm not normal
So, I talk to my dead brother, that paranormal, I'm a little abnormal, don't judge me by these paragraphs
These words are harmless but it's always calmness before the bomb start bombing
Look how Russia stormed Ukraine, murdered women, kids, and farmers
It got real like in St. Thomas where me, Rasheed and Thomas slang on them dangerous project corners
No commoners, cornerstone for the foreigners, watch out for the informers
I got insomnia and I can sleep so I creep that's before dawn, yawn until morning
And, YB just had to let you know that throw back days my mental phase were instrumental to my present situation
Not coincidental, no hesitation becomes detrimental when
They transferred ya to station for a vacation
That when them lil' boys that fake, they start shaking
Then they make statements, read the papers colored people losing like the Lakers, rest in peace Kobe
That dude showed me how determination and dedication can make 'em Can replace a Maybach
But ya winder can't replace a YB, ya momma probably be a IB?
Wanna see a real BG alive and free, never see defeat? Holla whenever
Sincerely C, sincerely Me
Yeah, you can holla whenever, bruh I'm on point I'm on bing
This my letter
Bruh I just hope it gets better, ya dig?
We gonna make it right, ya heard me? Homeboy, straight up

[Chorus]
Dear young'n, they made me do this bid and I ain't did nothin'
When we did run it, our conversation really did somethin'
Life is real funny, ain't right, but, you ain't in they sight until you got money
I told ya I could see it comin', but, you ain't no dummy
You was on point boy, no stunt'n, a little setback, but, you still function
Still made money, made no assumptions, kept it gully kept it hundred
Hard times you learned from, it just like I done it
Hope ya a lil' blunted, smoke one, choke one, chill off, let's run it

[Verse 2]
I feel like I'm the blame, I was so retarded and thoughtless
Now my daughters ain't got a father
I'm so bothered by it so often, see I'm not heartless even though my wife feel like I put a knife through her heart
But, I been locked up twenty years, my black heart been dead from the start
And from the first day I caught this murder case people been lyin' in my face, I got blood relatives
That wanna see me die in Camp J just so that they can say, "I told ya so," and continue bashing me in public on Instagram
YB just take it from me, don't want to see ya go ham and wind up in a jam
Wind up with time in the slam
'Cause I need you on the streets, not six feet deep, gotta peep C ain't nothing
Weak 'bout a creep that done
Speak, it's called deceit
No retreat I eat with the roaches project poachers
I might lay motionless and wait for the imminent to approach that's devotion, Boy is a certified
Bi-polar, always be a controller and remain in control even when the game over
Boy, you a 38 soldier, never roll over, roll one for me
I'm in roll call with a hangover with true soldiers, boy, I'm ya plug just inhale what I'm sayin' like drugs and thugs
Give me a straw might snort these lyrics and get a buzz just because
Only for the real, I got love, so, why the mean mug? Ya heard me?
Why the mean mug man? I'm just keeping it true and you too Just don't hate
Somebody for being great
Just congratulate, use that as inspiration for yourself, ya heard me?

[Chorus]
Dear young'n, they made me do this bid and I ain't did nothin'
When we did run it, our conversation really did somethin'
Life is real funny, ain't right, but, you ain't in they sight until you got money
I told ya I could see it comin', but, you ain't no dummy
You was on point boy, no stunt'n, a little setback, but, you still function
Still made money, made no assumptions, kept it gully kept it hundred
Hard times you learned from, it just like I done it
Hope ya a lil' blunted, smoke one, choke one, chill off, let's run it

[Outro]
See, you know where I be, bruh, you don't have to feel like you owe nobody, nothing either
You don't owe nobody nothing, but yourself
Take care ya mom and kids, move according
Stay protected, don't get in
All these social politics, bruh, live by that code of course
That music game just like dope game
Most important thing is freedom and life
Trust only the ones been tested
Don't hesitate to make an impossible decision, be the man that you are and not just a male
Snd be a father ya heard me, and, uh, you on top of the game, you a king
Don't hang with the players, hang with the coaches and owners
