Letters to the lost

Hook/Chorus

I write letters to the lost, pour my pain in every line

Night wind carry voices back, say you up where the stars shine

I keep your memory on my chest, ice cold but burnin’ bright

For my lost homies, I live loud, I pray hard every night

Verse 1

Used to run them blocks with you, same jackets, same shoes

Now I walk past corners quiet, hear the echo of our youth

Mama askin’ why I’m hollow, same pain in her eyes too

I put your name on every beat, tryna turn my blue to truth

We made promises on rooftops, swore we’d never switch lanes

Now I do this for your daughter, for your baby, for your veins

All the nights I chased fast money, thought it’d ease the pain

But it’s pictures in my phone and emptiness remain

Hook/Chorus

I write letters to the lost, pour my pain in every line

Night wind carry voices back, say you up where the stars shine

I keep your memory on my chest, ice cold but burnin’ bright

For my lost homies, I live loud, I pray hard every night

Verse 2

Letter two, I’m apologetic, wish I coulda done more

Leave my pride at the doorstep, trade the streets for open doors

Enemies keep circlin’, but your lessons taught me war

Fight for the family, stack the bread, make a future off the floor

Seen brothers switchin’ colors quick, loyalty gettin’ sold

I remember sittin’ on that stoop, countin’ dreams we never told

Now I pick up broken pieces, turn ’em into something gold

Every tear I tuck away, every story I unfold

Pre-Chorus

If heaven got a mailbox, I’d send postcards from these nights

Tell you ’bout these heavy losses, tell you ’bout these lonely fights

You taught me how to stand when the world try to take the light

So I keep walkin’ forward, even when the path ain’t right

Hook/Chorus

I write letters to the lost, pour my pain in every line

Night wind carry voices back, say you up where the stars shine

I keep your memory on my chest, ice cold but burnin’ bright

For my lost homies, I live loud, I pray hard every night

Bridge (melodic, softer)

Sometimes I stare at pictures, talk to ghosts on the low

Play our songs and reminisce, yeah I let the river flow

Every loss taught me loyalty, every scar taught me to grow

I keep your name like armor, keep your legacy on show

Verse 3 (final push)

Last letter say I promise, I won’t fold under the stress

I’ll build a house for your kids, make sure they eat, pass the test

No more runnin’ from the shadows, no more chasin’ hollow flex

I’m puttin’ love where the pain been, puttin’ honor on my chest

So when the night fall heavy, and the fears try to creep

I speak your name and stand tall, for the promises we keep

Hook/Chorus (repeat/outro)

I write letters to the lost, pour my pain in every line

Night wind carry voices back, say you up where the stars shine

I keep your memory on my chest, ice cold but burnin’ bright

For my lost homies, I live loud, I pray hard every night

Porque music

See you when I see you
