To me, From Me (inspired by bra paisley)


If I could write a letter to me I'd tell myself just who I'd be I'd prove it to my freshman self with stories of that boy The one that had you falling hard, but used you as a toy Remember the times you'd sneak out, in the middle of the night? Coming home to mom and dad ready for a fight You couldn't get it through your head, you thought you were so cool But now i'm here to warn you, you were just a fool With sophomore year came Partnership You found somewhere that you could fit You changed your ways, you proved them wrong He treated you bad for far too long It ended in the saddest way But I'm glad you did not stay He brought you down, you don't need him Now it's time to rid your sins Junior year by far was best A whole new life with passing tests A whole new boy who treats you good The only way a real man should Better grades, better friends You're getting closer to the end Things were changing and I could see I was becoming who I'd be The years went by way too fast It's senior year, my very last I'm ready to leave, ready to go You'll be on your own, so just know- I'm proud of what you've achieved No one would've ever believed You'd make it this far and be on your way Or make it to graduation day I wish you'd left him sooner I wish you had known I wish you would stop stressing I wish you'd realize how much you've grown. If I could write a letter to me
