N.T.E. - Dear Past Me

Dear past me
I promise life is going to get nasty
But it gets better even when things end badly
You'll go up and down from being sad to happy
And you not going to understand it's going to make you feel real trashy
So please don't worry about growing up too fast
Just go outside and please make the fun times last
Cuz now that I'm older, I just want to be a kid again
And I wanna be outside no worries just dribbling
And I know you was stressed out as a youngin
Just a little kid and you was trapped in your own dungeon
You got made fun of sometimes with those words so pungent
Waiting for the days where you can ball without budget
And I'm glad you started writing those lyrics back in the sixth grade
Especially when you saw no sun and all you felt was shade
You going to learn soon music I your band aid
You gonna witness some things that's going to have you so afraid
Please talk about your problems please don't hush them
And here's some advice just cuz their family don't mean you can trust them
And you going to learn that when when you get closer then your friendship going to get rusted
So trust me just cut them
Don't even try to reconstruct it
Cuz you was there for them but when you needed them they shut you out
And you're a little flower ready to sprout
So please follow your dreams and go all out
And I know there's sometimes you went a different route
But
Dear past me
Please learn how to love yourself
Because you're going to meet people who's gonna damage on your wealth
And please do not let this affect your mental health
And don't worry about fitting in just please move in so stealth
Cuz then you'll wear a mask just to fit in
With a bunch of kids who don't care about you but keep it hidden
You felt like giving up a lot I appreciate the ambition
Cuz being sad everyday was a horrible tradition
Being honest I'm just glad you snapped out of it
And now you're walking feeling free like if you are just out of debt
Your heart got that protection with all this love that is surrounding it
So now you no longer feel broken
And all this pain and healing has you awoken
And now you doing something you love with all of your focus
Nate, you'd be proud of where I'm at now
You didn't know how your life would turn out but somehow
We made it through the storm and all we can do is say wow
Dear past me
