Lyrics Letter To Tom - Salty MC
It
made
me
who
I
am
I
gotta
take
'em
where
I
started
Remember
when
I
used
to
leave
the
room
and
hear
'em
laughing
Living
out
a
suitcase
with
no
money
I
was
starving
People
I
grew
up
with
would
see
me
and
walk
right
past
me
Now
they
beg
for
my
for
attention
Post
traumatic
stress,
I've
seen
some
things
I'll
never
mention
Rap
to
vent
all
my
depression,
this
my
form
of
self
expression
Every
time
I'm
in
my
hometown
feel
the
pressure
and
the
tension
Still
got
ten
toes
down,
but
most
my
people
in
the
sky
Snakes
smiling
in
my
face,
I
see
the
evil
in
their
eye
If
they
knew
how
many
died,
they'd
be
thankful
that
we're
still
here
living
Little
brother
isn't
blood
but
he's
my
spitting
image
Said
that
we'd
be
smiling,
different
cities
pumping
billies
Crying
happy
tears,
'cos
we
really
fucking
did
it
Loyal
as
they
come
and
have
been
from
the
beginning
You
had
it
harder
since
a
kid,
but
you've
never
played
the
victim
And
trust
me
brother,
that's
what
makes
a
winner
I
remember
starving
empty
cupboards
in
the
kitchen
Struggling
with
addiction,
dirty
cups
that
we
were
sipping
Mix
Phenergan
with
the
Rikodiene
to
block
out
all
our
feelings
Mixing
Vyvanse
with
speed
trying
to
fight
the
fatigue
Don't
talk
about
it
much
just
make
it
rhyme
on
a
beat
We
were
trap-house
living
wasn't
much
of
a
home
Barely
survived
our
teens,
now
you've
got
son
of
your
own
Said
you're
gonna
break
the
cycle
in
my
heart
I
never
doubted
you
Don't
say
it
to
your
face
enough,
I'm
so
fucking
proud
of
you
I'm
sorry
I
don't
visit
much
it's
been
a
minute
But
it
gives
me
hope
and
inspiration
when
I
see
you
with
him
Drew
died
didn't
think
I'd
live
another
year
Washing
Valium
down
with
whiskey
so
my
vision
wasn't
clear
My
brother
in
the
dirt,
had
to
face
my
biggest
fear
You
didn't
leave
my
side
once,
never
judged
all
of
the
tears
That
we
cried,
they
could
probably
fill
the
ocean
Struggling
with
addiction,
mania,
psychosis
But
you
always
stayed
solid,
always
stayed
honest
I've
got
your
back
until
my
last
day
brother
that's
a
promise
Didn't
wanna
tell
you
'bout
the
times
that
I
was
suicidal
It's
like
you
knew
somehow,
you
wouldn't
leave
my
side
It's
weird
to
reflect
on,
life's
different
without
Drew
But
without
your
support
bro
I'd
be
in
the
ground
too
Way
too
real,
the
fake
could
never
understand
Always
something
in
the
way,
we
had
to
find
a
better
plan
Make
the
best
out
our
situation
doing
what
we
can
Since
you
were
sixteen
years
old
brah
I've
seen
you
as
a
man
When
we
lost
Drew
the
way
you
took
it
inspired
me
Made
me
find
strength,
I
couldn't
even
find
sobriety
And
that
weren't
the
only
demon
you
were
fighting
with
Your
blood
brother
locked
up
in
a
prison,
but
in
spite
of
it
You
always
showed
compassion
to
my
situation
A
lot
of
them
know
Salty,
but
you
know
Hamish
Wanted
nothing
in
return
except
my
love
and
respect
So
no
matter
what
happens
you're
my
brother
'til
death
One
of
a
kind
you're
a
different
breed
Partly
blame
myself
every
time
you're
sipping
Rikodiene
How
could
I
blame
you
when
I
know
half
the
shit
you've
seen
Was
20
when
I
watched
our
brother
die
but
you
were
in
your
teens
Hurts
to
see
you
in
a
trap,
but
I
know
you've
got
a
kid
to
feed
And
life
in
that
city's
bleak,
the
cost
of
living
isn't
cheap
The
profit
flipping
g's
equals
like
a
milli'
streams
I
miss
when
life
was
simple
but
nostalgia's
always
bitter
sweet
Trying
to
make
a
million,
I'm
sorry
for
the
distance
But
who
am
I
to
tell
you
change
if
I
can't
offer
something
different
Even
on
my
worst
days
you'd
always
come
and
visit
So
no
matter
who
I
cut
off
I
still
keep
you
in
my
visions
I
know
my
memories
fucked,
but
I
don't
forget
where
I'm
from
Fuck
it
then,
I
guess
I'll
call
this
Letter
To
Tom,
