WALE - Diary lyrics
rate me<span class="feat">(feat. Marsha Ambrosius)</span><br>
<br>
If I told you I wanted to talk to you, <br />
You think I'm try'na holla at you, <br />
And maybe I am but, <br />
You wouldn't hear me out anyway's would you? , <br />
Rather lose love than to move on never knowing what it feel like, <br />
Short days, long nights, <br />
By the phone, no call, <br />
Need a clear mind 'cause I been blind,got me goin' down that road, <br />
Heart made of stone, <br />
Far away from home, <br />
Black woman you cold, <br />
Every problem you ever had with another man I gotta face, <br />
Started off on thin ice, <br />
im still here but I cant skate, <br />
Slow sink, cant breath, no remorse, dont think, <br />
Listen to your friend get another man for a minute then repeat, <br />
Queen, you deserve the title but she reject what I give, while she nurse the wounds by them, <br />
Tried them didnt work, <br />
Diary of a black girl, <br />
<br />
<i>[chorus]</i><br />
I wonder why I sit and cry, <br />
Wish I could shed all these tears, <br />
Im down and out, <br />
Ill keep it moving and tryna get out, <br />
I dont know how to move on, <br />
Where I went wrong, <br />
I wish I could live with no fear, <br />
So down and out, <br />
Ill keep it moving and tryna get out, <br />
Somehow, <br />
<br />
Raised by a momma who, who, <br />
Hate her baby father so, so <br />
She dont have a problem with, with, <br />
Saying fuck a nigga Quick, quick, <br />
Im just tryna be the one who never run, but you run away from me, <br />
Girlfriends man cheat, cheat, <br />
Why not me the same thing, <br />
She cant see in me, what I see in her, <br />
This pain she inherit cant be reversed, <br />
I cant even stay living in the shade of all the motherfuckers who played you, <br />
The irony in that is that I aint even that, but you coulda been these pages, <br />
Wife, you deserve the label but, but, you been hurt before so you dont feel your able, <br />
Tried them didnt work, got impossible standards, nothing that I ever do works, <br />
Diary of a black girl, <br />
<br />
<i>[chorus]</i><br />
<br />
See all I wanna do is be relevant, <br />
Just tell me that I ever meant anything more, <br />
That you could ever see me and you in another light, <br />
But its like the dark women indoors in the darkest nights by the wrong man, <br />
see all of them have made you incapable of a first impression, <br />
what it do is I channel my aggression with no cable or antenna, <br />
Just intentions to impress you if capable, <br />
Hoping that the material possesions can materialise to a better you, <br />
Cars, nothing I drive can drive you out of this state of mind, <br />
For such an ugly picture and, <br />
Money, nothing I buy can buy more time for your ears to tell your heart to listen to it, <br />
Diamonds, a girls best frienf is what they say but believe me with the right allegience shorty you gonna shine anyways, <br />
and everyday that goes by is a couple more lines in her diary, <br />
the day before is better than the present, <br />
so anyone presented in her presence is doing these life sentences, <br />
theres no key for release, <br />
no reason to be around, <br />
her minds in the clouds, <br />
she writes it all down, <br />
in her diary, <br />
<br />
