360 - Letters lyrics

I believe you become who you were
When you're old, but you get it quite late
Mr Future can you send a letter my way?
I'ma have a guess what the letter might say
If you could see who you were to become
Do you think you would do the same thing?
When it comes to girls would
You play the same game
When a baby girl's gonna take on your name?

If the future you could go and
Write a letter to yourself
Imagine all the shit that it'd say
Makes me wonder if you reckon it'd help
In the way that you treat girls
And the difference it'd make
I wonder if you would switch
It up and respect women
Instead of tellin' all these lies
Just for sex with 'em
There's nothing wrong with having sex
But what's being a dog
Is you leadin' 'em on just
So you'll get with 'em
Would you hit then kick her
Out so she's all alone
Instead of doing what's really right
And walk her home?
Would you call 'em bitches? Would
You call 'em hoes?
Or would you be riddled with guilt
That you called 'em both?
'Cause when you go and have a
Baby girl you call your own those words
What if someone went and
Called your daughter those?
I know learnin' from your
Past is important though
I just think there's certain little things
That you oughta to know

I believe you become who you were
When you're old, but you get it quite late
(Quite late)
Mr Future can you send a letter my way?
(My way)
I'ma have a guess what the letter might say
If you could see who you were to become
Do you think you would do the same thing?
(Same thing) when it comes to girls would
You play the same game (Same game)
When a baby girl's gonna take on your name?

Maybe I will see you later
I'll see you later
Maybe I will see you later
I'll see you later

When you're young as fuck you run amok
Always fuckin' something up
It's funny though
That attitude eventually will come undone
If your stomach's rumblin' and churning
Like there's something up
That's the beginning of you learnin'
How to trust your gut
If you're hurtin' just be open
Never suck it up force it out, homie
'cause there's none above your mothers love
Back up what your brother does
Always bring each other up
Make sure your father's proud of
Everything his son's become
I realise your guard's up
And that you stubborn, but
Listen to your fam when they
Tellin' you you fuckin' up
Believe in yourself with no doubt
You're number one
Fuck shootin' for the fence
Go ahead and touch the sun
When it comes to life
If I had to go and sum it up
The meaning of it all to me
Is simple: love and love
I know shit can sound corny though
To me it's real as fuck and
Somethin' that you oughta know

I believe you become who you were
When you're old, but you get it quite late
(Quite late)
Mr Future can you send a letter my way?
(My way)
I'ma have a guess what the letter might say
If you could see who you were to become
Do you think you would do the same thing?
(Same thing) when it comes to girls would
You play the same game (Same game)
When a baby girl's gonna take on your name?

Maybe I will see you later
I'll see you later
Maybe I will see you later
I'll see you later

So when you go and find your own wife
You need to have your own lives
Have each others backs so you both strive
Ayy what's so important though is
Having your alone time
But even more knowin' that you don't mind
Ayy
A life you cosign, live's that you both like
Never watchin' life as it goes by, ayy
What you got together's crucial
That you both thrive
Otherwise the shit is gonna nosedive, ayy
