R. Kelly - The Diary Of Me Lyrics
Umm pum-pum-pumPum-pum, pum-pum, pum-pumLook behind myselfAs I reflect on all the memoriesThe times they come and goLost everything from friends to FamilyIf I could turn back the handsThere would be some things I'd change about meI know that my past is not what my future holdsWhere I come fromWho could believeAll the pain and miseryLook in my eyes and you'll seeThe diary of meRewind my lifeJust go back and correct all the wrongAnd ask God to direct my pathSo that I can make it homeAnd if I could turn back the hands of timeThere would be some things I would change about meBut I know that my past is not what my future holds'CauseWhere I'm fromWho could believeAll the pain, miseryLook in my eyes and you will seeThe diary of meYears ago a child was born (a child was born) (ooh)And raised without a man (without my... father, and wonder why he's in these streets) (ooh)My mother's gone (mothers gone, yet still... found the strength to pray for me) (ooh)But still reached out her handJust open the book (na-na-na-na-na-na)Turn the pages of my life (na-na-na)And you will readA true story about one man's journeyWhere I'm from (ahh...)Who would believe, yeahThat all the hurt and pain and misery (ahh...)Look in my eyes (ahh...)You'll see the diary of me (pum-pum-pum-pum-pum)Where I'm from (where I'm from, who could believe) (ahh...)Who could believe (the hurt and pain and misery)(Look in my eyes) in my eyes (and you will see) (ahh...)(The makings of) the makings of(My diary) my diary(Where I'm from) look in my eyes (ahh...)(Who could believe) you'll see(The hurt and pain and misery)(Look in my eyes) (ahh...)(And you will see) yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah(The makings of my diary)(Where I'm from...)
