Letter 2 Kobi Testo

K-O-B-I
Shenai
My baby, eleven eleven, look

We came up from nothing, my mother was struggling
The fuck could they tell us
Don't nothing hurt more than the nigga you grow with
Startin to get jealous
Let's do it, fuck trying y'all niggas was buying
My niggas was sellin NBA dreams turned into a pistol and now I'm a felon
Think I got court in the morning

Told me they canceled the court, so they got me on zoom
Let out a shot, bet they clear out the room
Niggas don't like me, the shit I assume
I know
I don't really care
I used to hustle for gear, pray I see another year
My family was doubting me
They kept on telling me no
Everybody else was like yeah
The fuck do I fear?

I done been so close to death, I smell that shit in the air
You fully loaded, I'm fully prepared
Letter to Kobi, I'm happy I'm here
She only two, damn what the fuck I'ma do?
Her energy different from Kai
I see myself when I look in her eyes I feel like I could never tell her a lie
Not once
Call me Shenai

When Kobi died I thought of your name
We were so comfortable, I remember Bae Luciano was with 'em
That shit was insane
I work it out in my brain, how did that happen?
2020, when Corona was wildin
November eleventh you came out your mother
Remember you smiling, babies be crying but you was just smiling
That's when I knew you was different
God gave me two daughters they love is so genuine
When I be talking they listen
Shooter died in May, you was born November
Before thanksgiving, I talk to God, thank him for you being healthy
My lil' Nicki, daddy got you

I never thought I fall in love again after I had Kairi
We got the same minds, hope you see how far I could see
Trade my life to make sure you was safe, focused as I could be
If you feel it, know I feel it
You a part of me, it's hard for me

I look my baby girl right in her eyes, she yell out, "Daddy"
I smoke and think about how she would be if she ain't have me
Raise you like the queen you are, no problem, I do it gladly
I raise you like the queen you are, no problem, do it gladly

This my letter to Kobi, I'm so glad she know me
Everything that's in my name is yours, come grab these Rollies
This my letter to Kobi, know your daddy love you
Get excited when I see you, I gotta kiss you, I have to hug you

Got Nipsey picture on my wall
Just know I had to hussle
If you don't know nothing else about me
Just know your daddy hustle
Your dad will shoot, your dad will stab
Just know, your dad will scuffle
Long as I'm here, nobody will actually touch you
On my soul, your daddy love you
