[Verse 1]
Letter to my brother who ain’t call in years
I still hear your laugh when the smoke get clear
We was boys in the dark, no plan, no map
Now the streetlights dim, and you don’t write back
Letter to my mama for the nights I missed
I know you prayed for my soul when I ain’t exist
Kept the porch light on when I lost my way
All them late night cries, I still hear ‘em today
[Hook]
These letters never sent, just lines in my head
Whispers to the past, words left unread
Dreams I ain’t chase, love I ain’t claim
Old friends lost, but the feelings remain
These letters never sent, just prayers in the dark
Little pieces of me still guarding my heart
Pages full of ghosts, ink full of pain
But I keep ‘em in my chest when I walk through the rain
[Verse 2]
Letter to that love I let slip too soon
I see your face in the quiet of my empty room
All the plans we made, all the talks till dawn
Now it’s just smoke trails and a half-drawn song
Letter to myself when I was just a kid
If you saw me now, would you smile or dip?
All the nights you cried, all the fights you lost
Every scar you gained turned to lesson and cost
[Hook]
These letters never sent, just lines in my head
Whispers to the past, words left unread
Dreams I ain’t chase, love I ain’t claim
Old friends lost, but the feelings remain
These letters never sent, just prayers in the dark
Little pieces of me still guarding my heart
Pages full of ghosts, ink full of pain
But I keep ‘em in my chest when I walk through the rain
[Verse 3]
Letter to tomorrow, I just hope you forgive
All the nights I stayed quiet just learning to live
I still hold the weight, but I breathe in slow
Some words stay locked, but they help me grow
[Bridge]
Ain’t no mailbox for the thoughts I keep
Ain’t no stamp for the nights I weep
I just fold these lines in the beat so deep
Sing ‘em to the moon when the world asleep
[Hook – Final]
These letters never sent, just lines in my head
Whispers to the past, words left unread
Dreams I ain’t chase, love I ain’t claim
Old friends lost, but the feelings remain
These letters never sent, just prayers in the dark
Little pieces of me still guarding my heart
Pages full of ghosts, ink full of pain
But I keep ‘em in my chest when I walk through the rain
[Outro]
Some words ain’t meant for the world.
Just meant to keep you whole.
