Dear John featuring Common & 10Beats
MC Lyte
[Intro: MC Lyte]Dear JohnKnow this life has been filled with stress and painIf I could, I would take it all awayAll away[Verse 1: MC Lyte]I know you gotta feel like your back is pinned against the wall most timesBut in those times, you remain openClosed minds will get you nowhereGotta move with no fare, so dearI salute youKnowing everything you've been through is just a journeyEvery man must take the keyFor some it's not to make the same mistakesAnd fall victim to the chaos the world createsIn the heat of the momentYou can mistake an ally for an opponentAnd wipe your own outWhat a waste, and an evasive hateYou discover that it's too late[Hook: 10Beats] (x2)What you wanna doSo you wanna be ballers, shot callersDippin' in the Benz straight lawlessOr would you rather be fathers to your daughters?Even though it's getting harder[Verse 2: Common]A letter to the better, to better the demonstrationSituation got you wishin' for ventilationCan't a nigga breathe, trying to find what I believeIt's hard for a tree to grow when father figures leavePlus I got a seed and my baby mama needSmoke a little weed to keep my mind freeOnly God can judge me, so to him I pleadFifth in my hand, the myth of a manThat I should know it all and I ain't supposed to fallGetting locked up and boxed up, protocolWritings on the wall, fighting for the causeRead a letter from the world and it said It's yours[Hook] (x2)[Verse 3: MC Lyte]Confused with those who say they have your backI feel your pain, I know you're under attackTo be strong in all things in all ways, just ain't real, so some strayLives left in hallways, death's breath is in the airLet your thirstful life persevereSomeone once said you were chosenBus as you gotten older, doors are now closin'Karma comes aroundAnd all those silly things you did as a grown child are wheelin' down in your directionBut not all hope is lostGather your thoughts for the second comingAnd I'm guessing you'll be stronger than you've ever beenEver[Hook] (x2)
