Dear Slim I wrote you but you ain't calling It's been a couple years now since I wrote that song and A lot has changed now for you and I I had no clue that I would write a song to you And it would change some lives Kids with tears in they eyes now come up to me Showing love to me and telling that they look up to me The effects to me well it's really kind of strange to see I only wanted to share with you what Jesus done for me But there's a whole another side of things now I've come to see It's a huge influence that you go upon the industry But enough of me it's not what I came to say to you Not a day goes by where I don't take time to pray for you And I'm sorry for what ya mom and dad they did to you But I can relate with you cause well see dude I've been there too I know there's a lot of pain and hurt now that you been through But never forget there's a real love God gave for you La la la la la (To whom it may concern) La la la la la (It's still to whom it may concern) Dear Slim I wrote you but ya still ain't calling Backstage at the VMA's someone gave you my song and I'm kind of wondering what ya thought man When that guy walked up to ya talked to ya and put it in your hands Maybe ya never listened to it or maybe ya lost it SongtexteOr maybe ya heard it ya just got mad and then ya tossed it Did he diss you back that's the question that I always get I'm like well God forbid that ya might even have liked it I don't know but congratulations on your movie yo And I heard ya last record well it's over 10 million sold But there's one thing that's really got me thinking bro Does a grammy mean anything if it's just got to cost ya soul In case ya didn't know there's a love that will never go away You said you was going to hell but it don't have to be that way See the bottom line of what I'm trying to say is God puts back together the broken pieces that been thrown away Even if everyone you know just ups and goes away He'll still love you till the very day that ya old and gray Too bad a lot of Christians all they do is hate on you Instead of dropping to they knees and taking time to pray for you And it's obvious that ya really love ya daughter dude And for that I gotta tell ya well I really got respect for you So here it is Dear Slim Part 2 From just another cat trying to make it just like you Dear Slim did you hear the junk that I'm going through Kids sending me hate mail and telling me how I'm biting you Telling me how they gone beat me and just kill me too But a lot of people they just seem to get the song confused See what I say to you I know it might even sound funny But I never came at you just to paint you as the enemy It wasn't about hating you or starting some controversy It wasn't about blaming you or trying to make some money I don't claim to know everything that you've experienced Man I don't even know if you'll even be hearing this But I said it once and I still hold to this Is that a life without Christ is still a life that is never fixed I'll tell ya this even if it's a hard pill to swallow Like it or not Slim you're gonna always be a role model Do you know these kids we're the ones they always follow What we say and how we live gives them a better tomorrow I had my share of sorrow plus man I been rejected I've been chewed up spit out and plus disrespected But if I die today and I never sell another record Jesus gave me more than I ever could've been expecting I know life is hectic it can leave ya blown away But check it bro cause we all just gonna die some day On that note well there's only one thing left to say It's still one love one God and only one way Aus Songtexte Mania
