[Tyler, The Creator - In My Mind 10 Years Anniversary Letter lyrics]

I was 15 attending summer
School at Hawthorne High
Spending most of my nights trying
To find any snippets
Of the album on various German sites then 7
25 06 came iMM ranges in different
Styles and sounds and
I believe that's why I gravitated to it so
Much the upright bassline on "Can I Have It
Like That" or the buckets on "How Does
It Feel" off the wall MJ on "Number 1″ i
Still to this day don't think I can
Make a song better than "That Girl" and "I
Really Like You Girl" is easily the
Best song on this album with
Your best Timberlake impersonation
And Stevie harmonica iMM also
Includes "Raspy Shit"
Which is the worst song in your discography I
Hate that song so much you are so
Gross for that but the one that stood out


Was "You Can Do It Too" the sade
Bassline, the string pad with
Chords that you claim
Only Q Tip, you and I like
The Jamie Cullum outro!

Being 15 black not really "interested" in
What the majority of my
Peers were into, it made me
Feel safe i was optimistic
Always daydreaming and setting goals
So I felt
You were directly speaking to me i remember
Clancy telling me how Jimmy Iovine thought
This album was a "complete fucking failure it
Didnt work" but see, it did
Just not on the kids he
Was looking at the ones
Who just existed used the popular
Slang listened to what
Was thrown at them dressed in
Clothing that was trending at
The time not saying that's bad but of course
This wouldn't work on them but
It worked on me and
I created Odd Future that same summer i was
Actually naive enough to believe you
And thought I could
Do all these amazing things if I really tried

Where I grew up, niggas get stuck and
Never make it out jail, dead
Shit jobs, not really growing it seems
Like at a certain age
Ideas original thoughts are no longer a
Thing I didnt fall into
That cycle i’m now a young
Entrepreneur all because I believed
You when you said I could
Be you were the first
Person I contacted when I pulled
Off that McLaren dealership!

This is getting long so uhhh, hbd
IMM i never had brothers
Uncles or my father around so thank you
For being the male figure I
Gravitated to allowing me to embrace being
Different and trusting my ideas
