(Intro:) I have to ask you something. You’ve worked through so much, but you never seem happy. Like you’re looking for something else, something not here on Earth. What are you looking for? (Hook:) Letter to you Baby come through Hoping that you Can show a brother what it do Letter to you Baby come through Hoping that you Can show me how to shine How to shine (Verse:) Oh my dear eternity So naturally and so lovely We were birthed from royalty So where is my crown Damn America Causing mass hysteria Take my rights I’m daring ya Shits about to go down (down) Am I a rapping ass nigga Or a singing ass nigga Shit don’t think I’ll ever know But one thing I know for certain Before my life closes the curtain Bitch I gotta glow (Hook:) Letter to you Baby come through Hoping that you Can show a brother what it do Letter to you Baby come through Hoping that you Can show me how to shine Shine Can you show me how to shine (Interlude:) What are you looking for? Wake up… wake up! (Verse:) Ok these niggas really thought I would never rap again After “Love, Euphoria” they said “Des done turned in his pen” Please don’t act like I’m not him, don’t even try to pretend Cause I’m back to teach you niggas, back to the lesson at hand A few hundred years ago engaged in enslavement Emancipation Proclamation claims that all our ways are changing But in 2023 I still see my people hangin Got my eyes wide open cause I can’t take it Anymore, I’m kicking down the door, now prepare for a war The cops keep killing my brothers like trynna get a high score Look sorry for the rant but I just needed to vent This country needs to pay for single every body it spent I’m bout to shine, bout to shine, bout to shine What does that mean you may ask, well baby this the shine Surviving hatred and intense negative energy Witness the story of my awakening, ya feel me (Hook:) Letter to you (yeah) Baby come through (come through) Hoping that you Can show a brother what it do (show me what it do) Letter to you (from me to you) Baby come through Hoping that you Can show me how to shine (Im bout to shine, bout to shine, bout to shine now) (Im bout to shine, bout to shine, bout to shine now) Can you show me how to shine (Im bout to shine, bout to shine, bout to shine now) (Im bout to shine, bout to shine, bout to shine now)
