Lil Wayne – Dear Anne Lyrics
[Refrain]
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of time to decide
Do we run
Should I hide
For the rest of my life
[Verse 1]
Dear Anne, my number one fan
I write with the light from the lamp on my night stand
With my pen in my right hand and that's also my mic hand
Codeine in a Sprite can, ink on the white pad
And I'm thinking of life
Anne and wrong and right Anne
And sometimes I'm right and sometimes I might
Cannot find the light still my rhymes are bright
So I continue my plan and I'm sure like white sand
That they'll be price paying before my flight land
But still I want to see more than my sight can
Adore so I can't ignore what I want anymore
So I just go you can call me the goer
And oh yeah I got a girl
She act like I owe her
Sometimes it seems like I just don't know her
And yeah the relationship is starting to feel like a chore
But I really hope I'm not starting to bore, page one
[Refrain]
[Verse 2]
Dear Anne, my number one fan
I write you this letter
I hope everything's grand
I hope everyone's good
I hope everybody's praying
I hope, hold up baby
Let me switch hands
See, lately I've been dealing with a lot of shit, Anne
It's burning me and I can't get out of this pan
And everytime I look there's a problem with this man
But I ain't tryna expose
I'm just tryna expand
But your support held me up like kickstands
And I'm also being more careful in how I pick friends
Anne, I'm trying to stay up out them chicks' pants
But I just can't
But on another note
This ain't just another note
This is more than a rap
This is more of an oath
And I know you're wondering what this letter is for
And I'm just hoping that you read this far, page two
[Refrain]
[Verse 3]
Dear Anne, my number one fan
By now you probably think that I'm portraying who I'm saying
And sometimes I wish I wasn't him
But I am
And it's people like you that make me proud of what I am
Hey, you are the shit
Damn pardon the gram'
But it's like you make me feel like I'm a part of the fam
And shit, when my life is like some sort of exam
It's a jungle out there
Lions, horses and rams
Shit as I sit and wait for the war to begin
I just think of you then I'm rewarded again, Anne
With you is where my artistry can, Anne
So with you is where a part of me stands, Anne
I hope I see you in the stands, Anne
Because you know I understand, Anne
And I'm sorry about Stan
So I wrote this to say that I'm your number one fan
[Refrain]
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of time to decide
Do we run
Should I hide
For the rest of my life
