Olamide - Letter to Milli lyrics

Hey son wassup, this is your dad
Am writing this to motivate you
Whenever you are down
Just remember my story and things
That people told me
Nine mili-mitre to my head couldn't hold me
Back from the facts and all the
Things that I believed in
Now I treat a special woman
The womb I lived in
How I used to go go, how I used to go get
How I used to go to shows
With no cash in my pocket
Am talking 08, 09, O10, O11
For every level there's a different devil
I sold my soul to the game
Just to dine with the devil
I hope I make heaven and sometimes
I don't even think about the
Fact that my daddy
Is a driver and my hood is ladilac
I just grind like am crazy like a maniac
To make my daddy proud and get
All the things my lady lacks
So ti ye e, bose'nlo gan gan mo so fun e yen
Ole di president oh
Ma jeki anybody sofun e ipe ole'di president
Oko ma je kori e pe
Wa jeki orie se kini wa je kori e pe
O ma de need kini, o ma need dedication

Am sorry omo mi, omo mi, arin bi eni egbe dun
Mi o ni sugarcoat anything
Tori mo fe ki nu e dun
Otito koro, sugbon otito ni major key
I know you wanna ball, you wanna flex
O den tun fe yo p
And sometimes you wanna be just like me
Exactly, maybe not too much maybe slightly
And sometimes you wanna do the
Things that I did
Maybe even better, maybe you wanna be greater
You must into consideration the circumstances
Where you at
Who you loving who you stand with
You must be prepared for every chance you see
Every opportunity
Knock dem out for me like Ali
Be a soldier, build yourself
Elevate your brothers when
You elevating yourself
Go to war with your brothers
And protect all your sisters
Ask your mama for her blessings let
No one compete with her
So ti ye e, bose'nlo gan gan mo so fun e yen

Keep your eyes on the price future lowa lokan
I love you
My love to all the little kids out there
I pray may you days be long
Your money be long
When it's time to face your
Fears may you be strong
May you never dwell in failure
When you do something wrong
May you never lack the wisdom to multiply and
Sustain all that you work and pray for
