Lyrics
[Verse 1] New day, new dollar, I'm making change I leverage all of my knowledge and profit off of my pain I copped a deserted island and kept it far from the rain I noticed nothing was growing and then it went up in flames Living for the moment, I keep it all in the frame I chose to live in reality, exit out of the game Film photo filter banalities of the world And if it entertain, then morality down the drain Happiness is what I'm getting to Everything you taking in should make an even bettеr you I'm human and I urge you to never put mе on pedestals I hope you never trade a better view for a better view I hope you making sure all your trauma don't get the best of you Hope the person inside that mirror has been respecting you Hope you treat your virtuous qualities like collectibles Hope you love yourself by accepting the blessings meant for you I hope this memo get to you like [Chorus] I left you with a memo (I left you with a memo) It don't take long to read (Not a lot of words at all) One day, you gon' let go (One day, you gon', one day, you gon') And that day, you'll be free (Know exactly who you are) In the back of that photo (Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid) Right there, you will see (Right there, you will see, right there, you will see) My name in a memo (My name in a memo) I hope it get to you in peace (I hope it get to you in peace) [Verse 2] January 18th at 10:30, you were born and I held you in my arms Told my mama you were beautiful Looking back at me like I was new to you I knew that I could never handle losing you I sacrificed a lot so you never have to Took the stones they threw at me and I made a castle Left behind what I used to be, now I'm looking at you With a new set of eyes, guess I was looking past you But who you was today isn't set in stone if you always setting goals You can have a better life, better wife, better home Most important, I hope that you better when you left alone Comfy with yourself, taking peace everywhere you go And only you can meet your needs if you didn't know When you love yourself, ain't a single place that isn't home And when you home, keep it clean, keep it safe and serene One day, I'ma leave, so [Chorus] I left you with a memo (I left you with a memo) It don't take long to read (Not a lot of words at all) One day, you gon' let go (One day, you gon', one day, you gon') And that day, you'll be free (Know exactly who you are) In the back of that photo (Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid) Right there, you will see (Right there, you will see, right there, you will see) My name in a memo (My name in a memo) I hope it get to you in peace (I hope it get to you in peace) [Verse 3] Sending you my love from New York City with peace Sending you my love from Cali on Cherry Beach Sending you my love from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania You wrote me and then you said I'm your savior to say the least Thank you all for coming and packing out every show And putting me in your story and keeping me on repeat Thank you for the flowers when I was hitting my lows And thinking of giving up and leaning over the brink Lot of people ask me for advice Slow down, only do some shit if it feel right Hold down people that have given you real love And if you got a dream, just do it like Phil Knight Ain't no type of love like self-love So always make time for yourself, love And keep your mental health up Mediation helps and your health is your wealth And you learned this all yourself, so [Chorus] I left you with a memo (I left you with a memo) It don't take long to read (Not a lot of words at all) One day, you gon' let go (One day, you gon', one day, you gon') And that day, you'll be free (Know exactly who you are) In the back of that photo (Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid, Polaroid) Right there, you will see (Right there, you will see, right there, you will see) My name in a memo (My name in a memo) I hope it get to you in peace (I hope it get to you in peace) [Outro: Richard Parker] And there you have it The long journey home come to an end You had some good times You had some down times You learned a lot You laughed, you cried But you found your way home And I'm glad you did
