| I just need y’all to try to bear with me for a minute
|
| While I talk about the pages of my diary, listen up
|
| I remember when I got started my intention was to win
|
| But a lot of shit changed since then
|
| Some old friends became enemies in the quest of victory
|
| But I made a vow, never let this shit get to me
|
| I let it pass, so I consider that part of my history
|
| And I’m strong; |
| financially, physically
|
| Mentally I’m on a whole 'nother level
|
| And don’t forget that I came from the ghetto
|
| Sold a new house for my moms, that’s special
|
| I let you going shopping 'til your feet get tired
|
| Then a new Benz just for you to ride in
|
| When I didn’t have it, you provided
|
| Don’t be surprised that I built an enterprise
|
| And my house got a view of the city like a highrise
|
| I’m just talking to my diary
|
| I’m just talking to my diary
|
| When I open up my book, I think about the world later
|
| No ink in the pen, no lines on the paper
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| Sometimes when I got a lot of shit on my mind
|
| I’m just staring at the sky, you probably thinkin' I’m high
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| Now puff-puff-pass got a nigga having flashbacks
|
| I remember how it used to be
|
| Now my money like NASDAQ, my checks you can cash that
|
| I remember how it used to be
|
| I used to be a starving artist, so I would never starve an artist
|
| This is my passion, it’s where my heart is
|
| It gets the hardest when I think about the dearly departed
|
| Like the nigga I started with
|
| I know Eazy can see me now, looking down through the clouds
|
| And regardless, I know my nigga still proud
|
| It’s been a while since we spoke but you still my folks
|
| We used to sit back, laugh and joke
|
| Now I remember when we used to do all-nighters
|
| You in the booth and Cube in the corner writing
|
| Where Ren at? |
| Shout out to my nigga Yella
|
| Damn, I miss that… shit, a nigga having flashbacks
|
| When I open up my book I think about the world later
|
| No ink in the pen, no lines on the paper
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| Sometimes when I got a lot of shit on my mind
|
| I’m just staring at the sky, you probably thinkin' I’m high
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary
|
| I’m just, I’m just, I’m just talking to my diary |
