Lyrics

, dear slim, i never wrote you or been calling, my name ain't stan son nah we've never met and, my name's kj let me begin by introducing now, myself to you and these very reasons i'll be writing, why i took my time the who what where and why and, the purpose of my verse and the reasons i'm reciting, what i hope your learning from the truth i pray your finding, and every word i'm writing down upon the dotted lines and, see i heard ya first album it was called infinite, i shook my head cause nowadays you sounding different, what drove ya to take your whole persona and be flipping it, now what makes a man totally change see i ain't getting it, see was you sick of getting booed when you was ripping it, and sick of never having dough and you wanted to put an end to it, what good's all kinds of dough, plus all kinds of flow?, to gain a world of fans but suffer the loss of soul, la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la, dear slim i never wrote you or been calling, this is my 2nd letter cause see son i gots a real problem, it's that to you that i'm always catching these comparisons, and after shows i got these people coming up to me saying, you sound like slim shady son you sound like eminem, and i be like now really man do i gots to go through this again, see i used to get mad and sick of people saying that, till at this one show this one day i met this one cat, he told me how he used to listen to you but now listens to me, had your lp but threw it out and bought my cd, i'm like "for real?" he's like "yeah," said my music made a difference, it got him away from all your words and images, gotta mention this now what about the effects you have on kids?, you ever stop to think about the millions you influence, or is it just irrelevant is it a true life you telling it, or just a way for some record companies selling it, the only thing we's got in common is our melanin, or a lack of it but anyway now this is what i'm saying, its for you that i'm on my knees now daily praying, praying that god opens your eyes now to what i'm relaying, now i'm praying that it's your heart that will soon be changing, praying one day that you'll be calling upon his name and, but anyway i'm signing off now don't keep me waiting, this is kj another cat just trying to make it, dear slim i heard about the stuff you's going through, see i could relate to you cause son i'm about as old as you, see we both know what it's like just to be growing up to be in a neighborhood, when you's the one and only kid that's white, or to get booed when you on the mic just because your skin is light, it ain't right but sometimes you know that's life, but really tell me what you do?, you just push on with hopes on that someday you'll put on your crew, i hope you understand that i ain't even dissing you, and even though it's a song you'll probably never listen to, see what i send to you is this, is that a life without christ is just a life that is never fixed, i hope you remember this now a few sentences, about a living god who loves you and plus forgives, and i'll be praying for your ex-wife and plus your kid, it's hard to live in a world as crazy as this one is, and even though now it really might sound redundant, god's got mad love for you up in a mad abundance, you'll sell a couple mill i'll probably sell a couple hundred, there's more to life than selling records and just getting blunted, but anyway that's really all i gots to say, just another word from an emcee now around the way, maybe some day we meet each other in some way, till then one love one god one way,
