[Lyric] Letter To My First Born (Davy Fresh)

[Verse 1]
This a letter to my first born
Just know my word always be bond, uh
I put you on before you even took your first air
You my first heir, I'll always be there
Let me tell you how I came up quick
Had to grow in the streets, so I grew up quick
Thank God that's a life you'll never grow up with
That's a chip on my shoulder that I show up with
I was born in the projects somewhere in New York
Your grandmother moved me out, our family needed a spark
So we headed down to VA, that's home in my heart
But my teenage years, I wasn't getting that far
I made this rap shit work by my mid-twenties
Workеd with legendary labels, madе hella money
You know you slightly famous before you even take your first steps
You get a head start on life, so take big steps
Me and your mother proud of you, put in work for you
I felt so much hurt, hope it ain't getting to you
Just wanna be a better father than my father was
And teach you things that my father never touched, look
[Chorus]
This a letter to my first born
'Til I'm dead and gone, know my word gon' be bond
My legacy don't stop here, you witnessed the start
I support my whole family from curating art
I speak these words from the heart, and in my heart, it's the truth
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth

[Verse 2]
And It's sad that you'll never meet my aunt Janae
She would've been so happy to see the day you came
But had to battle some demons and things just happen for reasons
Sometimes I can't even explain, just know your pops ain't okay
I walk with pain every day and we ain't promised today
I try to cherish every second, we can go any day
And your cousin, Aziah, she more like your big sister
I had to raise her as mine, that's why she always be with us
But she my first child and she came up wild
She made your father leave the game and go and settle it down
And your mother got my back, that's why I'm holding her down
We lucky that we got each other, ain't no stopping us now
And this jewelry and cars, you know my treasure is yours
And this house that we own, it'll be yours when you grown
You and your sister share these things and pass 'em down to your kids
Got a music catalog, so forever we lit
[Chorus]
This a letter to my first born
'Til I'm dead and gone, know my word gon' be bond
My legacy don't stop here, you witnessed the start
I support my whole family from curating art
I speak these words from the heart, and in my heart, it's the truth
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth

[Chorus]
This a letter to my first born
'Til I'm dead and gone, know my word gon' be bond
My legacy don't stop here, you witnessed the start
I support my whole family from curating art
I speak these words from the heart, and in my heart, it's the truth
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
I work hard for my kids, so keep enjoying your youth
