lirik lagu jet 2 - dear diary (part 1)
[intro: sample]
it’s 5 o’ clock, i’m just getting home
roamin’ on my own
what can i tell her
that she might understand
(jet 2 whussap!)
[verse: jet 2]
scribblin’ notes in my diary in dire need
of tryna be me
instead of what they make me try to be
hip~hop’s prodigy, product of my environment
and it seems that the less knowledge
that you give off, the higher you get
in this industry, which abandons divinity
i’ve been infinitely searching to find it since infancy
pretending to be everything i hear in the music
as if it was me
rappin’ ’bout b~tches like they come instantly
all that еver managed to do was turn me against mе
them other rappers spreadin’ sick lies
and we breathin’ disease
they jottin’ down they victory, but we readin’ defeat
so don’t believe the lies unless you like to believe in deceit
dear diary, or who i write this letter to
you’re the only one i can tell this to
n~ggas sell they soul just to get into the game
so i stay above ground, ’cause i ain’t tryna do the same
i can change that
and sh~t is far deeper than what meets the eye
it’s either i visualized it, or i’m blind
and i hope i don’t mislead
i try to be positive just to change it
but the game is negative
so i bend the rules when i play it
not enough to get disqualified
which isn’t fair to every single one that follows mines
and they say it’s only entertainment
to the people they entertainin’
but really, it’s just a way to manipulate them
and i ain’t sayin’ too much
’cause the script says, “n~gga, don’t say too much!”
or find yourself missin’ from all the truth you spittin’
so i sprinkle the truth in bits, hope they get it if they listen
[refrain: jet 2]
d~mn, it seems the closer i get to
what everybody’ll view as success
and gettin’ into the game
i kinda realize that i don’t do it to get into the game
[verse 2: jet 2]
i love hip~hop, baby you are my counselor
i love makin’ music for the people i’m accountin’ for
love bringin’ smiles from the faces that’ll frown
and from the hardships
i found a happiness i never found before
shout~out to those around me
y’all inspire me profoundly
and even those who doubt me
y’all inspiration’s astounding
and even those who hate me
y’all inspiration’s amazing
’cause only god can judge me
so i am whatever you make me
god, thank you for blessing me
with these sentences
’cause if it wasn’t for you
i’d probably end this sh~
but a quitter, i have never been
even when negative says you better quit
can’t let ’em win
dear diary, i feel speechless
steady tryna cover up emotions i can’t keep in
searchin’ for the pursuit of happiness
it seems that whether or not we all will truly find it
only depends
it ain’t about money if that’s what you think it is
money can’t buy the happiness found from deep within
and if you think it can, think again
’cause that just means you ain’t thinkin’ then
d~mn, i got a book full of hope
but my thoughts are full of greed
so i figured to find myself before i start to proceed
can’t change for the better if my thoughts are negative
give my heart a lyrical cleanse and get better quick
dear diary, before i lose everything
may the truth in every story i tell set me free
may i find the courage to tell them all the truth about it
if this is all about money, i can do without it
in reality, i’m afraid of being forgotten
intransigence when summarizing me in synopsis
the audacity to exhibit tenacity
is nothing but a vital sign of faith
i know it has to be
and god, may you strengthen my wisdom
so i could shed light
from the knowledge that i give them
i could inspire from the pain that exists
and my lyrics will address it
so i live where you listen
and dear diary, had i known this is how it feels
when you’re afraid to admit that you miss sh~t
pour every weakness out on the page
and press print, then
hope my thesis is good enough
to get me to princeton
i’m tryna clear my artist image like prince did
just by being me when i spit this instead
of living it in lyrical fiction
trying on shoes that don’t fit him, risky
when you got the wrong size
and you’re walkin’ wit’ it
ever tried to run with shoes too big?
it’s a trip, tie your shoelaces brother
it’ll prevent you from slippin’
here to change lives for the better
the miracle mission
