Letter to Me

(Theme: Talking to younger self — hope and reflection)

[Chorus]

If I could write a letter to the kid I used to be,
I’d say hold on tight, the storm gon’ set you free.
All them cold nights, they gon’ shape who you are,
Every tear you cry just ignites your spark.
You ain’t weak for feelin’, you strong for stayin’,
You ain’t broken, you just learnin’ from the pain you playin’.
If I could tell my younger self one thing to believe,
It’s that love ain’t a weakness, and it’s okay to grieve.

[Verse 1]

Dear lil’ me, I know the world feel dark,
I know you prayin’ at night just to fix your heart.
I know you feel like nobody hear what you say,
But everything you silent about gon’ lead the way.
You gon’ lose some people that you love the most,
And it’s gon’ change you — not ghost you, but grow you close.
You gon’ learn that peace ain’t always quiet and calm,
Sometimes it’s screamin’ in the mirror just to keep you from harm.

[Verse 2]

You gon’ make it out, even when it don’t seem like it,
You gon’ fight them demons, and you gon’ beat ‘em righteous.
Keep writin’, keep dreamin’, keep movin’ in stride,
Even when they doubt you, keep God on your side.
And don’t be ashamed of the love you give,
You was made to feel deep — that’s the way you live.
So when you see that pain, don’t run or flee,
Just remember: I’m proud of you — sincerely, me.

[Chorus – repeat]
