[00:09.97]I just need y'all to try to bear with me for a minute
[00:12.66]While I talk about the pages of my diary
[00:17.15]Listen up
[00:19.94]I remember when I got started my intention was to win
[00:23.01]But a lot of **** changed since then
[00:24.91]Some more friends became enemies in the quest of victory
[00:28.33]But I made a vow, never let this **** get to me
[00:31.31]I let it pass, so I consider that part of my history
[00:34.76]And I'm strong; financially, physically
[00:37.83]Mentally I'm on a whole 'nother level
[00:40.50]And don't forget that I came from the ghetto
[00:43.06]Sold a new house for my moms, that's special
[00:45.74]I let you going shopping till your feet get tired
[00:48.61]Then a new Benz just for you to ride in
[00:51.91]When I didn't have it, you provided
[00:54.87]Don't be surprised that I built an enterprise
[00:57.28]And my house got a view of the city like a highrise
[01:01.34]I'm just talking to my diary, I'm just talking to my diary
[01:05.91]When I open up my book I think about the world later
[01:08.78]No ink in the pen, no lines on the paper
[01:11.67]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[01:14.39]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[01:17.21]Sometimes when I got a lot of **** on my mind
[01:20.09]I'm just staring at the sky, you probably thinkin' I'm high
[01:22.97]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[01:25.74]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[01:29.07]Now puff-puff-pass got a ***** having flashbacks
[01:31.77]I remember how it used to be
[01:34.42]Now my money like NASDAQ, my checks you can cash that
[01:38.97]I remember how it used to be
[01:39.92]I used to be a starving artist so I would never starve an artist
[01:43.73]This is my passion, it's where my heart is
[01:46.52]It gets the hardest when I think about the dearly departed
[01:49.44]Like the ***** I started with
[01:51.22]I know Eazy can see me now, looking down through the clouds
[01:54.68]And regardless, I know my ***** still proud
[01:57.46]It's been a while since we spoke but you still my folks
[02:00.32]We used to sit back, laugh and joke
[02:02.54]Now I remember when we used to do all-nighters
[02:05.01]You in the booth and Cube in the corner writing
[02:08.25]Where Ren at? Shout out to my ***** Yella
[02:10.98]Damn, I miss that
[02:12.87]****, a ***** having flashbacks
[02:14.93]When I open up my book I think about the world later
[02:17.62]No ink in the pen, no lines on the paper
[02:20.53]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[02:23.14]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[02:26.05]Sometimes when I got a lot of **** on my mind
[02:29.01]I'm just staring at the sky, you probably thinkin' I'm high
[02:31.91]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
[02:34.56]I'm just, I'm just, I'm just talking to my diary
