Lyrics

it seems that i've floated too far out to sea, so, i'm writing a letter to myself, just to tell myself what i really feel, when i wasn't too far and couldn't say it, hey, dear brandon, how are you doing, and what are you doing?, this is based, so you know it's something real from the poet, something from the heart, you just know it, so, what's up with your family?, everybody, how you doing?, keeping it gangster, i love 'em, how are you doing?, keeping it real, so real, i'm out to sea, out to see everything, i still've yet to see, lil b, or brandon, bruno, remember that, b?, remember what mom used to call you, lil b?, rappin' when you was a little smaller, the sonic couch, sega games, all your little partners, remember that?, remember arts magnet?, longfellow, all of that?, the fun times, crazy times, headstart, everything getting a headstart, remember that?, remember falling off the bike the first time?, remember riding around waterfront all night?, remember that?, remember the east bay vivarium?, i said, lil b, remember the vivarium?, or brandon, excuse me, but once again, brandon, dear brandon, remember everything else, remember when you had your first performance when you was younger?, you had a poet contest, it was a little thing, you was talking about your pet reptile and you didn't even have one, remember you lied and said you had an iguana and didn't have one?, that was funny, i remember that, so funny, second grade, classrooms, on the computers -, remember when computers first came out, the old school macs? -, in the computer lab with all my friends, brandon, remember everything else -, when you was on the boat, and you took the trip at arts magnet?, stayed the night, overnight -, deck hand crew, boat crew, cooking crew?, you was up all night, beating sailor man's time by oh-three-hundred, a hundred million oh nine, you know i play around, i had to keep with my lingo, keep setting trends and keep saying bingo, but i gotta go, i'm floating too far out to sea, dear brandon, dear based god, never forget anything that you've done, and don't wait till you're out to sea to appreciate it
