Lyrics Jay Electronica – Letter To Falon

I walked across the water
I came by myself
I climbed the highest mountain
And I ain’t never being nailed

I was born on Tatooine with dreams of sand
I kept going
The blind would undermine my plans
I kept growing
God blessed the child that has
I kept building
One can’t rewind the past
I push forward
The pain was too much to bear
I kept hurting
Nobody could feel me there
I kept quiet
The tears would begin to well
I just fought em’
They say you gotta pay your dues
I just bought em’
What they don’t know won’t hurt em’
I pledge to never be no one’s burden
Mama said never disrespect your neighbors
Cause’ next week, we might have to check for favors
That’s science

I walked across the water
I came by myself
Climbed the highest mountain
And I ain’t never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I say yeah

The long road home, the crown the throne
I kept searching
Made time to find my own
I kept asking
Never ever strayed my course
I kept passion
Tried to reconnect my force
I kept fasting
Felt something inside my soul
I kept reaching
And even though that verse got old
I kept preaching
Even when them eyes got cold
We kept teaching
Selling Final Calls on Broad and Allegheny
Cause who gon save them babies
And finally put a definite into all those maybes
A scholar and a gentleman to all those ladies
The haters and the naysayers say ya’ll so crazy
That’s physics
A necessary part of the story
And 20/20 hindsight is so euphoric
Keep shining
Nobody could stop your progress
Because unknown forces move some known objects
That’s magic

I walked across the water
I came by myself
Climbed the highest mountain
And I ain’t never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I say yeah
