[Hook]
I'm writing you to
Catch you up on places I've been
[Wale-Talking]
To whom it may concern
I refuse to be another being on this earth
I'm breathing for a purpose
I wanna be the center piece of my entire culture
And I've been thinking bout you
Cause you've done such
By doing such
I get a pen and paper
Write you a letter cause you are appreciated
I'm dreaming to be great
While working on my mistakes
You promise that's change
I'm doing the same thing
[Wale-Verse 1]
Dear Mr.Obama
I'm hoping that this letter reaches you
In good spirits
Lord knows you've been busy
But I just wanna know if I speak could you listen
We in the same city I was hoping I could visit ya
If not I'm hoping that this letter could convey how I'm feeling
And you could find interest
First off congratulations on the win
It's time for some change to commence
I gotta question for you man
From an African American stance
Are we expecting too much from your four year plan?
And what about the rappers
That happen to act like a black president
Give us a right to be assholes?
You know
They say your name for attention
But little to no interest after election
Or the too cheap t-shirt sellers
That's making revenue of a name we cherish
As I end this letter
One more thing, I hope you understand your impact on our race
Sincerely Wale
P.S Eh I ain't trying to nit pick
But keep them cigarettes away
