Bryson Cole - Letters Lyrics

That's all a parent wants
Is for their child to be better than what they were
And you already better than me
You have so many qualities I wish i had its amazing to me
So I feel proud to know you are my son
You do have the qualities you have
We have similarity qualities as well
I see that your dad sees it
I don't know
Try not to beat yourself up

I think you the only one that get it momma
I think you the only one that see the drama
Remember when I was down depressed and alone
When there was no one to call I knew that I could call home
I just had to learn to deal with turbulence
Had some bumpy rides
But they never were permanent
Always knew that I was fortunate
You and dad's support was always affirmative
Each time you was always beside me when I can't describe why I'm so sad
Fake friends throwing up the peace sign
Never get a reply
Won't look back
Ain't the perfect man but I'm progressing
Took a lot of L's on the way but turned them into lessons
Turned all my songs into confessions
Finally beat depression thank God what a blessing
I was on my struggle but it only made me humble
Thank God for everything in my past
Lately On my hustle I been flexing showing muscle
Yahweh cleared everything in my path
I wrote all these songs like they was letters
Hoping I would go recite them and they'd make feel better
Now I use em to bring us all together
For my enemies to fold once we apply the pressure
I can't give no empathy for those that had it in for me
So use to hearing hate
It's sounding like a symphony
I just drown it out to abstain from draining out my energy
I just want some inner peace
And they don't know the inner me
I was never in da streets nor am I industry
Built this from the ground up no wonder why they digging me
Ain't made it officially but I don't need validity
From anyone other than the one's Its for originally

Think of your blessings
Count your blessing
And don't be getting all depressed and negative
Just be thankful for what you do have
What he has done for you and what he's allowing you to be able to do
Because there's so many people that cant

Okay I hear you loud and clear
God removed the clouds and he wiped away my tears
I ain't got no fears I boast gladly of my weakness
That's when I rely on Jesus
I been feeling weighed down
It's like weights been lifted
I was feeling weighed down
It's like the games been shifted
Dear Momma thank you for the love throughout the drama
Imma get them commas I promise
Buy you a house put you in designer
Dear Momma
I been writing these letters
In hopes that it make me feel better
But now I share my songs with the world
Until the messages finally heard
So
Dear who this may concern
Life is beautiful but every rose has its thorn
I was writing feelings on paper when I was torn
Letters to myself now I share them with the world
