Letter to Uncle DJ

Intro

Mmm, yeah

Uncle DJ...

Verse

I still got the records you left on the shelf

Every scratch tells a story, every spin I felt

You taught me the rhythm when the world got loud

Showed me how to turn pain into something proud

Late nights in the basement, lights low and warm

You’d play that old soul, keep the family calm

Now the house feels quiet, but your music stays

I’m writing these words just to find my way

Chorus

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Hoping it reaches wherever you play

Oh-oh-oh, can you feel these lines?

Yeah, yeah, spinning through time

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Every beat I drop, you’re still leading the way

Oh-oh-oh, keep the needle on my heart

Yeah, yeah, never apart

Verse

I remember your laugh cutting through the noise

How you’d cue up the records like you knew the boys

Needed something to hold when the days ran long

You gave us the soundtrack, you made us strong

Now I’m standing where you used to stand

Hands on the tables, trying to understand

How to keep your fire burning in my chest

Every song I sing is a thank-you at best

Chorus

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Hoping it reaches wherever you play

Oh-oh-oh, can you feel these lines?

Yeah, yeah, spinning through time

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Every beat I drop, you’re still leading the way

Oh-oh-oh, keep the needle on my heart

Yeah, yeah, never apart

Bridge

If the heavens got a turntable too

Promise me you’re playing something smooth

I’ll keep writing till the groove comes through

Just to say I love you

Chorus

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Hoping it reaches wherever you play

Oh-oh-oh, can you feel these lines?

Yeah, yeah, spinning through time

This is my letter to you, Uncle DJ

Every beat I drop, you’re still leading the way

Oh-oh-oh, keep the needle on my heart

Yeah, yeah, never apart

Outro

Mmm... Uncle DJ

Yeah...
