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

Wale Diary Comments
GENIUS! He sampled la valse d’amelie - version orchestre (look it up) and he sampled it perfectly no body coulda did it better than wale!
I got the chance to meet Marsha Ambrosis who does the background vocals FYI and her spirit is just as beautiful as her voice 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
The fact that this songs has less than a million views is ridiculous
2019🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️
This is the Song that hooked into Wale Music.. AMAZING , SIMPLE, SOUL NOURISHING

Short days, long nights,

Just now listening OMG! !!!
2019 who’s still feeling it, thumbs up 😉
We all could relate life's a motherfucker
100k till 100k https://youtu.be/t0W1TC5zAzA
Every problem that you ever had with another man I gotta face💯
-That bar is super Real
Russy Davis all day
Damn I remember this. Still Love this ❤️❤️❤️
Damn music like this is rare .
2019 still the vibe
The light skin girl was feeling Wale too in the video lol
This is not just a song, it's an anthem.
05/11/2019 Cleveland, Ohio my daily💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Throwback wale track!!!
Even to this day shawty still bad af lol
My favorite wale song
"Somehow
Some
How.."
"Don't
Worry
About
Them
Basics.."
This song will never get old , one of my favorites
Pretty sure u fell in depression
I absolutely love this song... wale is so talented man definitely underrated. first song that made me fall in love with him
Damn I can’t believe this was 8 years ago 😓
anyone here
DAYUM... WALE FELL THE FUCK OFF LOL
His poetry is what id rather hear its beautiful i love u wale
Logic definitely stole this flow on his song with Sam Smith
2018 still jamming
miss this Wale so much man..MMG RUINED Dude smfh.
Cae B he wanted to make 💰. Remember this album didn’t sell
You chatting shut up
I think Ross was great for him. He picks great beats and is more versatile
This song made me fall in love with him. Fan ever since #shine
STILL HERE 2018
The intro song CLASSIC! Forever a great WALE IDC what the industry is doing😍
Still listening to this in 2018. His lyrics stuck with me there so deep and meaningful.
When you realize the main girl in the video is one of your class mates back in your college days still can't get over it I just wish Wale would stop allowing himself to be the back burner to Rick Ross when he's lyrically better than Rick Ross.... it's pretty sad when you think about it I understand business but playing second fiddle to the point where you're becoming irrelevant I don't think I can do that
So am I the only one who sees the Basketball Diaries reference
I'ma nigga and he talking bout some real shit on here because it do be like that sometimes.. Straight poetry🔥🔥
I don't like this, it's too emotional
Ok, but why is no one mentioning that this samples the theme song from Amelie!?! This song is soooooo underrated
Why Marsha not in the video
Whats that song 'take me away...
I think tiller uses it in his new album
I don't understand why yall don't like what Ross has done for Wale. Since MMG he gave us Ambition, The Gifted, TAAN. Three great projects Shine not so much. Rozay seems like he lets his artist do their own thing so the music you hearing is what Wale wants To make
Jthugga1000 what kills me the most is that if chance or kendrick had did this you would be hearing how they so woke
Wish every musical lyric were like this...pure art and poetry.
Wtf ppl still sleeping on this song, the best song of him, beautiful song
Here's to the songs that are worth more and have more depth than anything on your radio station....so deep and soulful, rare when an artist can tell a story through his/her words. Just like Alicia Keys Diary
That's crazy how the leading girl in here is his gf and mother of his daughter
I love this song
What happened to this wale
DC dudes: "hey girl" as you walk away from them. lol and then get mad that they were curved. -native Washingtonian
I ❤️ Wale, His Music 🎶 & Stories 📚
Life... 💯
Story of my Life
I ❤️ Wale 💯
My song💗
I love this song it's my favorite song they sound so good they look good
wow da views are ptiful here...
Underrated song of Wale's
This is dope, this shit la fireee🔥
So Deep so soul touching words that Peirce the heart we need more music like this
Dope.. as usual.
Wale needs to leave MMG lately his music been ass his newest cd was good but not better then any of his classics. Attention deficit will always be my fav wale album.
King Kunta u crazy Ambition & Gifted are Wale best albums
King Kunta no fr i miss this side of him so bad
i just wanna know where he gets these dope skullys from
hes a poet
crazy part is this album got him dropped
Nick Johnson and that speaks to what the industry values.
Just so you know : this beautiful sample is taken from Yann Tiersen - La Valse D'Amelie which is a classic in my opinion.Marsha slayed it with that angelic voice and Wale is so damn talented.
One thing tho : @Riizjus you should change the title because the song features Marsha Ambrosius.
Peace.
🎧👌❤
he is the truth!!
man I hate that Rick Ross got his hands on Wale
he used to be fire just like this
Who's TheeNeverwascooL just wanna go cut his hands off
Aww I ain't know she's Wale's boo forreal. They so damn cute 😊
Real rap music no chains,liquor,strippers this is a lyricist at his best.I am tired of hearing what ballers have shit you got from my silly ass buying into the hype of some them but this guy wow, a rap song I can understand ,can relate to.
Why this sound like Jwaun Harris -Kiesha ???
Kewl Kid Baton Rouge came out way before that 😒
My fav is white shoes but this ones good
Fo real doh Marsha murdered that loop! Girl can sang!
This is real art so fucking slept on, unbelievable.
the cadence of this beat... is it sampled from that song on amelie? if so then all respect to wale, that's one of favorite movies. plus he did that music video off of 500 days of summer so there's that too 😃
Thank you Wale'
This song is so deep I love the message he's putting out😌
lil wiley bitch ass hater
My absolute favorite by Wale...so deep, so much soul, so much meaning. Plus Marsha has amazing vocals!
YES!!!!
Mine too. And by far!
classic
This deserves at least 20mil view how come people don't know about this song
Wale speaks the truth he is a god in my world.....😔
500,000 views? This is bullshit.. This is pure fucking art.. But go listen to some bs n them junts got millions of view.. Thats whats wrong with the industry.. Thats whats wrong with the world 💯
yes, I agree. we need more songs like this
100% true bro
This song is LIFE! Still, after 6 years. Wale is a pure artist.
I know this was 11 months ago, but this is one of the most cliche comments out there.
Wale be spitting that shit
573K Real Fans
I'm 18 & this song been making me cry since i was like 14 lol & i don't cry cus its sad its cus he's such a beautiful poet <3 ! i wanna hear more songs like thisssss
The last part is deep
This man been on the yeezys before everybody
I listen every night reminding myself to not be a black woman cold. I wonder how he knows what's in my diary. #queen
Oldskooldigger Me I got 8 sisters and I promise u I know and love females too and he just said everything that be going in my head he straight dope
this real shit
😍😍😍
she dont like his name
wale is best dressed hands down
yeah true but i think the best dressed in terms of uniqueness and fashion is A$AP rocky
+Harrison Brand Jaden Smith too me
@Immaculate Prophet stop that
+Harrison Brand he's the most unique for sure and he just wears what he likes, eye respect that.
+Immaculate Prophet I*
After listening to this along with his other music he's obviously with mmg bcus he want to be n not bcus he have to b. Ijs
always I will love very relatable true poet best rapper
Excuse me excuse me
"How you doing?" Alright
I am not really interested
"You didn't even
give me a chance to say
How beautiful you are"
Oh like that?
But "believe me
with the right allegiance"
shorty you gonna "shine anyways,"
and everyday that goes by
is a couple more lines in her diary,
the day before is better than the present,
so anyone presented
in her presence
endures these life sentences,
there's no key for release,
no reason to be around,
"her minds in the clouds,
she writes it all down,"
in her diary,"
"Your girlfriends man cheat, why not me the same thing"
