[Verse 1] 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 for you and It would change some lives Kids with tears in their eyes They now come up to me Showing love to me And telling me that they look up to me The effects to me, well It's really kinda strange to see I only wanted to share with you now What Jesus done for me But there's a whole 'nother side to things now That I come to see It's a huge influence you got upon on the industry But enough of me Cause 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 I'm sorry now for what your 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've been through But never forget there's a real love God gave to you
[Hook] La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la To whom it may concern La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la Still, to whom it may concern La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la To whom it may concern La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la It's still, to whom it may concern
[Verse 2] Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain't calling Backstage at the VMA's someone gave you my song and I'm kinda wondering what you thought, man Or when that guy walked up to you And talked to you and put it in your hands Maybe you never listen to it or Maybe you lost it Or maybe you heard it and you just got mad And then you tossed it "Did he diss you back?" That's the question I always get And I'm like, "Well, God forbid that you might even have liked it." I don't know but Congratulations on your movie yo and Heard your last record well, it's over ten million sold But there's one thing that's really got me thinking bro Does a Grammy mean anything if it's just gotta cost your soul? In case you didn't know, there's a love that will never go away You say you're 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 are were thrown away If even everyone you know Just up and goes away He'll still love you till the very day That you're old and gray Too bad a lot of Christians all they do is hate on you Instead of dropping to their knees And taking time to pray for you And it's obvious that you really love your daughter dude And for that I gotta tell you, well, I really got respect for you So here it is, Dear Slim, Chapter Part 2 Another cat trying to make it just like you

[Verse 3] Yo, 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 gonna beat me up and just kill me too But a lot of people they just seem to get my 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 has 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 even ever be hearing this But I said it once and I still hold to this Is that a life with out Christ is still a life that is never fixed I'll tell you this even if it's a hard pill to swallow Like it or not Slim, you will 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've had my share of some, plus man I've been rejected I've been chewed up, spit out, and cussed; disrespected But if I die today and never sell another record Jesus gave me more than I ever could of been expected I know life is hectic, it can leave you blown away But check it bro cause we all just gonna die someday And on that note, well, there's only one thing left to say There's still one love and one god and only one way
