You gotta look into yourself first
Getting caught up in that grudge
Only thinking about that "was" lead to self hurt
Imagine every wrong you did
Following behind forever for as long you live
You can forge for the future, forgive for the futile
Face that refusal, you'll forget at your funeral
Nobody wanna stay in their mistakes
And none of that shit will matter pushing daisies in your grave
So I'm on that apologetic, sick of living hollow, stressing
Brother you don't gotta sweat it
Mother chose the liquor over me so didn't get to know her
Looking at me getting closure, never live with chip on shoulder
Grandfather kicked us out the house so look at what I'm living now
Let me live a different route
Every action is a reaction and reacting by carrying that weight
I don't need that shit
They learn to love along the way
We all done wrong along the way
Hung around long enough to say
Stay strong enough to say you're wrong enough to save face
They learn to love along the way
We all done wrong along the way
Hung around long enough to say
Stay strong enough to say you're wrong enough to save face
Yo, we all want forgiveness, second chances, even thirds
Words can't describe, might die from the symptoms
A broken man is listless
Funny things we all have but in the snow miracle, genie's 3 wishes
Cowards afraid to step from the hour glass
Living this American life without fiber glass
If I reverse roles and want a chance to repent
I've made mistakes
If I could rewind the tape I'd never make 'em again
See I'd have flipped sides slide cause everything relative
And anyone judging you is irrelevant
I've changed so why can't people change too?
More than anything, I hold on to the belief
That if they want to they do
Deep down, plants hold on to their root
And I believe the people learn evil it's not inherent within the soot
So if you strip down the layers and went back to basics
We'd all look at one another with smiles on our faces
They learn to love along the way
We all done wrong along the way
Hung around long enough to say
Stay strong enough to say you're wrong enough to save face
