Letter 2 My Unborn

To my unborn child (oh)

To my unborn child

(In case I don't make it)

(Just remember, Daddy loves you) to my unborn child

(There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you)

(So don't worry about what people say) to my unborn

(And your daddy love you, haha)

Now ever since my birth, I've been cursed, since I'm born to wile

In case I never get to holla at my unborn child

Many things learned in prison, blessed and still livin'

Tryna earn every penny that I'm gettin'

I'm reminiscin' to the beginnin' of my mission

When I was conceived and came to be in this position

My mama was a Panther, loud single parent, but she proud

When she witnessed baby boy rip a crowd

Went to school, but I dropped out and left the house

'Cause my mama say I'm good for nothin', so I'm out

Since I only got one life to live, God forgive me for my sins

Let me make it, and I'll never steal again or deal again

My only friend is my misery

Wantin' revenge for the agony they did to me

See, my life ain't promised, but it's sure gettin' better

Hope you understand my love letter, to my unborn child

I'm writing you a letter

This is to my unborn child (to my unborn)

Wanna let you know I love you (to my unborn child) (love you)

If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn) (how I feel)

'Cause I think about you every day

I have so much to say (to my unborn child)

Seems so complicated to escape fate

And you can never understand 'til we trade places

Tell the world I feel guilty for bein' anxious

Ain't no way in hell that I could ever be a rapist

It's hard to face this cold world on a good day

When will they let the little kids in the hood play?

I got shot five times, but I'm still breathin'

Living proof there's a God if you need a reason

Can I believe in my own fate?

Will I raise my kids in the right or the wrong way?

Dear Mama, I'm a man now

I wanna make it on my own, not a handout

Make way for a whirlwind prophesized

I wanna go in peace when I gotta die

On these cold streets, ain't no love, no mercy and no friends

In case you never see my face again, to my unborn child

I'm writing you a letter

This is to my unborn child (to my unborn child) (I'm writing you a letter)

Wanna let you know I love you (to my unborn child) (love you) (oh, I love)

If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn child)

'Cause I think about you every day (every day)

I have so much to say

Dear Lord, can you hear me?

Tell me what to say to my unborn seed

In case I pass away will my child get to feel love?

Or are we all just cursed to be street thugs?

'Cause bein' black hurts, and even worse if you speak first

Livin' my life as an Outlaw, what could be worse?

'Cause maybe if I tried to change

Who'm I kiddin'? I'm a thug 'til I die; I'm a rider, mane

Touch bases, eat lunch in plush places

Regular criminal oasis awaits us

If there's a ghetto for true thugs, I'll see you there

And I'm sorry for not bein' there

Just know your daddy was a soldier, Me Against the World

Bless the boys and all my little girls

To the Lord, I'm eternal, restin' in peace

Please take care of all my seeds, to my unborn child

I'm writing you a letter

This is to my unborn child (to my unborn child)

Wanna let you know I love you (please take care of all my kids and my unborn child) (I love you)

If you didn't know I feel this way (to my unborn child) (how I feel)

'Cause I think about you every day

I have so much to say (this letter goes out to my seeds)

I'm writing you a letter, this is to my unborn child (that I might not get to see 'cause of this lifestyle)

Wanna let you know I love you (just know your daddy loved you)

Got nothin' but love for you (love you)

(And all I wanted was for you to have a better life than I had) if you didn't know I feel this way

('Cause I was out there on a 24 hour 365 grind) I think about you every day (every day)

(When you get to be my age, you'll understand) I have so much to say

(Just know I got love for you) I'm writing you a letter

(And I'll see you if there's a ghetto in Heaven) this is to my unborn child

If there's a Ghetto Heaven, I'll be there waitin' for you (wanna let you know I love you)

(Take care) if you didn't know I feel this way

(Run wild, but be smart) 'cause I think about you every day

(Follow the rules of the game) I have so much to say (every day)

(I know sometimes there's confusion) I'm writing you a letter

(Rules of the game is gonna get you through it all day every day) this is to my unborn child

(Watch out for these snakes and fakes) wanna let you know I love you

(Friends come a dime-a-dozen) (love you)

If you didn't know I feel this way (be an individual)

'Cause I think about you every day (work hard, study)

(Get your mind sharp) I have so much to say (trust nobody)
