Dear Adonis
– Chè Adonis
I’m sorry that that man is your father, let me be honest
– Mwen regrèt ke nonm sa a se papa ou, kite m ‘ yo dwe onèt
It takes a man to be a man, your dad is not responsive
– Li pran yon nonm yo dwe yon nonm, papa ou se pa reponn
I look at him and wish your grandpa woulda wore a condom
– Mwen gade l epi mwen swete granpapa ou ta mete yon kapòt
I’m sorry that you gotta grow up and then stand behind him
– Mwen regrèt ou dwe grandi epi kanpe dèyè l
Life is hard, I know, the challenge is always gon’ beat us home
– Lavi se difisil, mwen konnen, defi a se toujou gon ‘ bat nou lakay
Sometimes our parents make mistakes that affect us until we grown
– Pafwa paran nou fè erè ki afekte nou jiskaske nou grandi
And you’re a good kid that need good leadership
– Epi ou se yon bon timoun ki bezwen bon lidèchip
Let me be your mentor since your daddy don’t teach you shit
– Kite m se mentor ou depi papa ou pa anseye ou bagay
Never let a man piss on your leg, son
– Pa janm kite yon nonm pipi sou janm ou, pitit gason
Either you die right there or pop that man in the head, son
– Swa ou mouri dwa la oswa pop nonm sa a nan tèt la, pitit gason
Never fall in the escort business, that’s bad religion
– Pa janm tonbe nan biznis eskòt, sa se move relijyon
Please remember, you could be a bitch even if you got bitches
– Tanpri sonje, ou ta ka yon ti fi menm si ou te gen ti fi
Never code-switch, whether right or wrong, you’re a Black man

Don’t pay to play with them Brazilians, get a gym membership
– Pa peye pou jwe avèk Yo Brezilyen, jwenn yon manm jimnastik
Understand, no throwin’ rocks and hidin’ hands, that’s law

Don’t be ashamed ’bout who you wit’, that’s how he treat your moms

Don’t have a kid to hide a kid to hide again, be sure

Five percent will comprehend, but ninety-five is lost
– Senk pousan ap konprann, men katreven-senk pèdi
Be proud of who you are, your strength come from within
– Fè fyè de ki moun ou ye, fòs ou soti anndan

– Lotta superstar sa a se reyèl, men papa ou se pa youn nan yo
And you nothing like him, you’ll carry yourself as king
– Epi ou pa gen anyen tankou l’, ou pral pote tèt ou kòm wa
Can’t understand me right now? Just play this when you eighteen
