[Verse: 1]
I write this letter with a smile thinking bout how you gon’ feel when you read it
And if you like it it’s gon’ be one of my greatest achievements
I get excited when we talk because it’s deeply needed
You gon’ plant a seed of wisdom I let it grow in agreement
I’m collecting puzzle pieces, always working on my final portrait (Pieces, portrait)
Tryna show that Jesus Christ is my greatest endorsement
I put my money where my mouth
I’m rich in God’s love and God‘s grace and it’s funny I can never afford it (Never afford it)
I’mma tell theses same stories in my eighties God willing
And I hope you see these great grand-babies yo God willing (God willing)
For them to have an ounce of your knowledge
For them to know that grandma time as is the top level scholar
I gotta, pass down the tradition
Tell my children to pray often and sit back and listen
Help my children through those moments when they battle forgiveness
When you call God’s there with open arms with the quickness God’s there when you call (God’s there when you call)
[Verse: 2]
I always heard that the legacy you leave is the most important thing now I see it truly ain’t about me
I tell him that my soul has been redeemed and I point them to the king then they see they truly ain’t about me (Ain’t about me)
I found a way to use my gift with pride really from East Side Milwaukee to Westside Philly
Spread the music round the world and for every nation, every playlist every radio station (Every nation)
I know hip-hop ain’t your thing but I’m hoping that you’re proud of it (Proud of it)
Last name isn’t Mitchell but I’m dunking like I’m Donovan (Donovan)
Last name isn’t Thomas but I’m fighting like Isaiah
Cause I’mma show the world what Jesus Christ is really made of
Love you for the person who you are and who you’ve been
Beauty shining from a far, beauty shining from within
And that beauty passed down, I’m just glad that I have some
See you soon sincerely yours - Your Grandson
