Whether you can’t forget
Or it’s not that big of a deal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

Whether the issues dead
Or you’re tryna find a way to heal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

This is, for every single person I hurt
Whether it was unplanned or on pur-pose
If I didn’t own up I’m worth-less
This is for, any girl I raised my hand to
‘Fore I realized that ain’t what a man do
Thanks to my big bro
Y'all know this manhood shit don’t come with a manual
All them record stores that I stole from
When I was flat broke and so young
So I really can’t blame y’all when y’all find my albums and download ’em
Any of my brothers I stole on
Should’ve turn the other cheek and rolled on
But I mistake pride for self hate, I can now say I was so wrong

Whether you can’t forget
Or it’s not that big of a deal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

Whether the issues dead
Or you’re tryna find a way to heal

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Reminisce on my younger days
Had hunger pains on those summer days
Every man for himself like Hunger Games
From a city where we don't see the sun for days
Mama had one daughter, three sons to raise
I was gone for days like runaways
With a blunt to blaze
Drugs I could slang to get money made
Couple of mistakes and it's judgement day
Got cuffed up but I lucked up that the cop put the gun away
Looking back now and it must be fate
Set me free when he judged my case
Could have been in the pen or could've been killed
"I could never right my wrongs unless I write 'em down for real"
For real

Whether you can’t forget
Or it’s not that big of a deal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

Whether the issues dead
Or you’re tryna find a way to heal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

This for the times that I was dishonest
Every single broken promise
Treating you beneath the you, you are
When you should be regarded as goddess
For my student they laid to rest
Many days I wept
From the pain your death has caused
Missed your requiem
Overseas blessin’ them
May the most high protect your soul
For them family functions I missed
Missing your dap, hug, or your kiss
Hope you don’t feel dissed
But you know the real is
Pretty safe bet I was doing this
Even though I be rippin' and runnin'
From trying to be something, I know you exist
I know you don’t see it
But call if you need it
Don’t wait til' you’re out of your wits
And for you haters
Sorry that we made it
On our own terms not the ones they’re making so
Minor or major, don’t matter they’re payin' as long we’re not the ones playin' ho
Chased down our dreams and we made it so
Though we can’t be found on the radio
But the realest know where the real is that’s real-ish most people just lazy yo
Sorry we’re not more accomodatin’
Y'all worried about who the stars are datin’
Time's a wasting, our apologies this bullshit’s dominatin’
So we’re concentratin’ on innovations not nominations
With a small congregation to spread our gospel to the population

Whether you can’t forget
Or it’s not that big of a deal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)

Whether the issues dead
Or you’re tryna find a way to heal
I could (never right my wrongs, less I write it down for real)
So I swear (for real)
It's my bad (for real)
