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 sh** that it’d say Makes me wonder if you reckon it’d help In the way that you treat girls and the different it’d make I wonder if you would switch it up and respect women Instead of tellin’ all these lies just for s** with ’em There’s nothing wrong with having s**, 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 b**hes? 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?
