Letter To My Unborn

[00:11.36] I haven't seen you at a party yet, I

[00:13.94] Don't know how you move

[00:16.71] Let me in on all your secrets, I

[00:19.49] Want your point of view

[00:21.27] I'm dying to reach out and know you

[00:26.11] But it doesn't feel like it's supposed to

[00:31.77] I'm wondering if I'll ever fall again (Yeah)

[00:37.09] It was easy not knowing (I mean) what it meant (Listen)

[00:43.69] To my dear unborn child whether boy or girl

[00:44.18] I write this song to prepare you for this lonely world

[00:49.33] When you goin' through a bad time and need to clear your mind

[00:52.64] Just play this song alone and tune out from the world

[00:54.88] I hope this life brings you nothin' but peace (Nothin' but peace)

[00:57.68] I hope this life keeps you away from the streets

[01:00.50] (Keeps you away from the streets)

[01:01.02] I hope this life gives you someone that loves you

[01:03.04] (Someone that loves you)

[01:03.57] I hope that somebody makes you feel complete

[01:06.10] (Makes you feel complete), yeah

[01:07.12] 'Cause you gon' go through times when you need someone

[01:08.67] When you feel the world's against you, you won't need a gun

[01:11.45] You just gonna need some love and some light

[01:13.73] So much goin' on inside, it's hard to keep tryna fight

[01:16.50] 'Cause everybody have secrets, just be careful who you tell 'em to

[01:19.53] 'Cause they'll use 'em all against you when you least expect them to

[01:22.58] (Expect them to)

[01:23.60] Man, jealousy is ugly and it's everywhere

[01:25.37] And usually it comes from people who act like they care

[01:27.88] (Who act like they care)

[01:28.91] Sometimes the ones you need can't protect you

[01:30.94] Sometimes the people that you trust just wanna end you

[01:33.45] But clap for people when they win even against you

[01:36.01] 'Cause you don't really know their pain or what they went through

[01:38.56] I was five when I had to see my father through a cell

[01:41.37] I hope you never have to do the same

[01:44.17] 'Cause in this lifetime the only thing you really need is love

[01:46.96] But on the way you'll experience pain

[01:49.73] It's some people let that thing called pain turn 'em cold inside

[01:53.02] Me, I use it to remind me that my soul's alive

[01:55.55] You can let it eat you up, you can let it break you down

[01:58.32] Or you can let it teach you that there's so much more to life

[02:01.19] (There's so much more to life)

[02:01.94] Don't ever let the hard times break you

[02:03.96] You gon' find love and lose love but that's what makes you

[02:06.47] Keep your heart protected, keep growin', be thankful

[02:09.03] Remember that this life is such a blessing though it's painful

[02:12.03] And when you fall in love, make sure they love you for you

[02:14.33] Love happen when it's supposed to and you'll know when it's true

[02:17.14] I ran from love for so long, I held myself back from bein' happy

[02:20.67] I don't wanna see you run from it to, man

[02:23.47] But life's crazy and this world could be evil

[02:25.75] And death comes even for the strongest of people

[02:28.33] So make sure you tell the ones close to you that you love 'em

[02:31.12] 'Cause you'll never know when it's gon' be the last time they see you

[02:34.16] (The last they see you), man

[02:34.67] Everybody has a dream, you gonna have one too

[02:36.95] And remember there's no limit to what you can do

[02:39.74] It's gonna come a point when nobody believes in you

[02:42.24] But you just have to believe in yourself alone and see it through

[02:45.06] 'Cause this life is filled with hatred and envy

[02:47.61] If you keep God close to your heart'll never be empty

[02:50.40] If I die before you wake, I hope you never forget me

[02:52.96] And even though you not here, I know I love already

[02:56.27] Yours truly

[02:56.81] I haven't seen you at a party yet, I

[03:00.08] Don't know how you move

[03:01.61] Let me in on all your secrets, I

[03:04.66] Want your point of view

[03:06.72] I'm dying to reach out and know you

[03:11.81] But it doesn't feel like it's supposed to

[03:17.16] I'm wondering if I'll ever fall again

[03:22.74] It was easy not knowing what it meant (Ooh, ooh-ooh)

[03:29.81] The definition of us still escapes me now and then (Ooh, ooh-ooh)

[03:34.63] I'm wondering if I'll ever fall again
