Thug's Letter
• Written by RDA
Verse 1
Dear whoever may be reading this, this a letter from a lyricist
A kid who wished for Saint Nicholas turned to a bitch tearing ligaments
You see I'm spiritless, hugging the block don't mind family
Escaping agony, a patient in a mindless catastrophe
But fuck that, this a message for the world before I go out in the cold
Just trying to make sure that my story is properly told
For the few people by my graveside, through this train ride
The people who were here and made this life a rare sight
I was out of proportion, sightseeing my life in distortion
Taking caution, scared of responsibility to the point of abortion
Plan B, something I never had from the day of birth
Now look at this message myself, what the fuck am I worth?
A fucking disaster, pushing paraphernalia making heartbeat faster
Brain in a stampede, thought deplete in a scatter, a silver platter
Something I wished for, life was something I was unequipped for
Look at me now, dilemma of fucking a rich whore
Just to get some money, see fuckers try finding a easy path
This letter is an aftermath of a thug who was a sociopath
Now I'm writing this letter, debating on the truth of what is better
Robbing a safe with gun pointed at the teller, or being poor forever
I was tired of crack spots, wanted my life like a jackpot
A grand casino with no chances of ever being no bankrupt
Family was first, no matter how much the situation was worse
Making eyelids burst clenching teeth with this thirst
My life was cursed, see the world is extreme for the need of this green
Money decides if you're dirty or clean, the world is obscene
If you look at me and you, for people there's only one thing in between
They're keen to see who has the money they never seen
Absurd, but who am I to debate the whole world
I burned down my life and now look what I earned
Nothing, this is the end of all the discussions
I danced with the devil and experienced all the reaper repercussions
This is why I grabbed the pen, to write this shit for your eyes
To unmask my identity trapped in this filthy disguise
Be foolish or wise, in this world that's all that matters
From a thug to a dad has the same exact patterns
So when my life passes, and my body is put into the casket
When my body is ashes and I buried my hatchet
Pass this message, to my family if there is any left
If they even want to know about who I am, not the worst parts but the best
Despite my choices, I'm blessed with my family and my friends
Even enemies who made me better with the shit by my expense
Not to defend, just want you people to comprehend
Any 2 strings can tie a knot and any stupid beef can just end
This message should trap my unmasked feelings forever
Figure this out when you feel clever, this is a thug's letter
