Dear Chay

Seems like it was just the other day, you was a baby

In my arms and soon you gon' be all grown and it’s so crazy

I wish I could turn back the clock

Or better yet, make it stop

And give you all that I’ve got

Like every guy’s gonna tell you that you’re beautiful

Remember I would tell you first, so it ain’t new to you

I know in a while, it’s gon' be hard for me to get through to you

You gon' think that you know it all

But that ain’t gon' be the truth

I’ma always be there for you, love and care for you

Treat you so royal, highly gon' spoil you

Long as you do what you’re supposed to do

Givin' everything you got in school

I will try to give you every tool

At my disposal, so that you

You gon' know what kinda road to chose

Your decision, gon' be up to you

In a flash, you gon' look up

You gon' be out there on your own, livin' it up

Hope whatever I teach will stick

In the moment, you feel it’s dumb

Don’t be wantin' you feelin' like

Your mom and dad ain’t here with ya

That you out here alone

I need that to be clear to ya

Sincerely

I love you with everything in me

PS, I hope that you feel me

Hope you know I got you

Without a doubt in my heart

Yours truly

Dear Amaya

I know sometimes how you feel overlooked because you quiet

I used to be the same as you when I was younger

When I was hurt and I would keep it all inside

'Til it burned me up and turned into a fire

It’s okay to tell someone when your heart breaks

Trust in me, promise that I won’t betray you

We all need, need somebody to confide in

And a shoulder we can lean on

Safe space, you can cry in

In these arms, I got you

Want you to know how proud you make me with your schoolin'

Anything that you wanna be in this life, know you gon' do it

Not even the sky is the limit

Just gotta say that you want it

You gotta go out and get it

I can’t wait to see the woman you turn out to be

It ain’t a moment you’re alive you ain’t impressin' me

I only hope that I can bless you how you’re blessin' me

You just put your trust in God and put the rest in me

Sincerely

I love you with everything in me

PS, I hope that you feel me

Hope you know I got you

Without a doubt in my heart

Yours truly

Dear Kay-Kay

What can I say, say, say?

Ever since your first day

It’s like you’ve been here before

Wiser beyond your days

Truly you move to the beat of your own drum

And your own parade

I know when life get tough, that you’re gonna be okay

You keep a smile on your face, even on the darkest days

Even with an ounce of your strength, I can face a hurricane

And with a face just like mine, when you cry, I feel your pain

And I try to hug it away so that you ain’t feelin' the same

Use your voice to sing

Every melody, fill it up with the joy you bring

Great things are done, so you gon' do greater things

Take your time, young princess

One day, you’ll be a queen

You’re so special, hope you know I’m there for you

I got so much love to give, I’ll share with you

Stay who you are, don’t let no one dim your star

Take it from me and all the ones who understand you

Sincerely

I love you with everything in me

PS, I hope that you feel me

Hope you know I got you

Without a doubt in my heart

Yours truly
