Dear Slim I never wrote you or been callin
My name ain't Stan son, nah we've never met and
My name's KJ let me begin by introducing now
Myself to you and these very reasons I'll be writin
Why I took the time, the who what where and why and
The purpose of my verse, the reasons I'm reciting
What I hope your learnin from the truth I pray your finding
And every word I'm writin down upon the dotted lines and
See I heard ya first album, was called Infinite
I shook my head cause nowadays you soundin different
What drove ya take your whole persona and be flippin it now
What makes a man totally change see I ain't getting it
See was you sick of getting booed when you was rippin it
And sick of never havin dough and you your wanted to put an end to it
What good's all kinds of dough
Plus all kinds of flow
To gain a world of fans but suffer the loss of soul
CHORUS
La la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la
To whom it may concern x4
Dear Slim I never wrote you or been calling
This is my 2nd letter cause see son I gots a real problem
It's that to you that I'm always catching these comparisons
And after shows I got these people coming up to me sayin
You sound like Slim Shady son you sound like Eminem
And I be like now really man, do I gots to go through this again
See I used to get mad and sick of people saying that
Till at this one show this one day I met this one cat
He told me how he used to listen to you but now he listens to me
Had your LP but threw it out and bought my CD
I'm like for real he's like yeah he said my music made a difference
It got him away from all your words and images
I gotta mention this, now what about the effects you have on kids
You ever stop to think about the millions you influence
Or is it just irrelevent is it true life you telling it
Or just the way for some record companies sellin it
The only thing we got in common is our melanin
Or lack of it but anyway now this is what I'm sayin
It's for you that I'm on my knees now daily prayin
Prayin that God opens your eyes now to what I'm relayin
Now I'm praying that it's your heart that will soon be changing
Prayin one day that you'll be calling upon His name and
But anyway I'm signin off now don't keep me waitin
This is KJ another cat just trying to make it
CHORUS
Dear Slim I heard about the stuff you's going through
See I could relate to you cause son I'm about as old as you
See we both know what it's like just to be growing up to be in a neighborhood
When you's the only one and only kid that's white
Or to get booed when you on the mic just because your skin is light
It ain't right but sometimes you know that's life
But really tell me what you do
You just push on with hopes on that someday you'll put on your crew
I hope you understand that I ain't even dissin you
And even though its a song you'll probably never listen to
See what I send to you is this
Is that a life without Christ is just a life that is never fixed
Hope you remember this now a few sentences
About a living God who loves you and plus forgives
And I'll be praying for your ex-wife and plus your kid
It's hard to live in a world as crazy as this one is
And even though now it really might sound redundant
God's got mad love for you up in a mad abundance
You'll sell a couple mill I'll probably sell a couple hundred
There's more to life then selling records and just getting blunted
But anyway that's really all I gots to say
Just another word from an emcee now around the way
Maybe some day we meet each other in some way
Till then one love one God one way

What a beautiful song that tells Em everything he needs to know, so as to follow the bread crumbs. Simply amazing. What truth and love,KJ. Thank you for putting that out there. I pray many people will get it and run to the Savior, perhaps even Em. You did good KJ, you did real good. Never have I felt the kind of respect for someones actions as I do for you. No hate, just hope.. Things to ponder like what influence Em is having on the worldview of kids. What simple beauty in this song....
i believe god has bigger plans for eminem. i mean god used this singer to reach to him. true, eminem has to forgive, but if he is to deep in his anger he has to surrender to god through prayers. tht way his soul will be saved through christ.
i believe he will make a good singer of god, for him to use his voice and influence he has to the youth to make a change through christ.
stay blessed
Well I think that it's great that kj is trying to help slim but I noticed kj mentioned infinite slims first album. Kj said shady was sounding " different " lately well I looked up the lyrics to infinite thinking ooooo finally an eminem song that wAs appropriate! But the lyrics are bad he swears a lot and there was something like him being sent from hell. But still this song rules
Now first of all KJ did not write this song to make money or to mess with Slim. He did it because he cares for him plus this song help more than just one person. it helped tons more!!! and another thing, as Christians, it is our job to tell everyone about God and his love! In Matthew 24:14 Jesus says "When the good news about the kingdom has been preached all over the world and told to all nations, the end will come." And that is what i am waiting for! and really people if KJ was just making this song just for money, i am telling you, he could have made one ten times better!

He is preaching love... He is preaching God. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/1/09
To all those that have been flaming KJ:
If you even pay close attention to the lyrics, you will know that KJ-52 loves Eminem with the love sent by God.
To the guy that commented that KJ is a nobody, and that he just mentioned Eminem just to get fame. That is incorrect.
He mentions Eminem, because he wants to reach out, and show God's loves by sending His only begotten son to die for us, and rise from the dead 3 days later...
Many Christian bands would be far more popular in this world if their lyrics did not mention God in them, or if they didn't have the title of being believers in Christ, and making their music for Christ.
If they just wanted fame, they would get it by leaving out God of the equation according to them.
But they love God. So its part of their music.
To reach out others, in need of Him...
And everybody needs Jesus.
Amen
God Bless
Nothing hateful about this song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/1/09
KJ does not hate on eminem. Em has the freedom to either accept or reject the Lord. I have listened to Em and I do appreciate his talent. I have no idea if Em has ever heard Dear Slim part 1 or 2. But I do know that KJ has touched a lot of fans with this song. Maybe the purpose of these songs are to touch his fans, and not to influence Em.
I can't belive what I'm reading. KJ cares about Eminem and had the guts to tell him,I mean WWJD? Eminem's music is really good and he is very talented, but he doesn't have to take all of his anger out on the world and add to everyone else's anger(like Gelly says). Eminem needs to forgive so that he can be forgiven. FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US! I'm not trying to preach to anyone, but trying to bring people closer to God and have a relationship with Him. Look at what He has done for us! He gave us His SON! He LOVES us ALL sooooo much, He loves those who don't even know Him yet and He wants your love and wants to spend time with you! So take advantage. Love you guys
great song | Reviewer: August | 12/14/08
Its sad how everyone stands up for eminem in this situation. Eminem doesn't give a pile of dog shit about his listeners or anyone else except himself, yet u all stand up for him like he is your daddy. That's pathetic. KJ-52 is showing a hateful, angry, violent, ignorant person (eminem) love and trying to save him from being thrown into hell. That's more than you can say for any of eminems fans or most people in general. That alone deserves respect. And KJ isn't rapping to gain money or fame, he is rapping to show praise for our Creator. That takes more balls than any of these rappers now a days have. Any ignorant person can lay down some profanity ridden self indulgent lyrics that offer no substance or value. You can spend you life seeking sin, and when you die God will remind of that and all your sin will come back and rape you in hell or you can humbly acknowledge your heavenly father and live a life to please him and be granted eternal life. Its all your choice. All I can say is eminem and all these other selfish rappers are just fattening themselves up for a slaughter. We all fall short of Gods glory but come on. I pray that he changes his ways and that all people may know the joy that comes from christ but some people are just too proud and too deeply tied to their sin. Its sad. You can't take your money or fame with you when you die. You leave just as you came, weak, naked and in need of a savior. My boy Jesus Christ. HOLLA. Praise the Lord for sending His son.
rap is rap | Reviewer: k | 11/14/08
no offend to anybody, but to me rap is rap, anybody can pick up anything to put in his or her rap, kj thinks he knows eminem like you think you know kj, but is the fact goin' that way? i don't care about the so called social influence rappers can make, all my attention goes on the lines a rapper writes. if kids get influence by eminem, that's the result of them choosin it, that's the result the society's takin it and goin after it, not eminem's fault. i don't think it's a smart move for kj to do this, you're christian rapper just be it, no need to mess with other style and be the judger to preach like this
