Wretch 32 - Forgiveness lyrics

[feat. Etta Bond]

[Verse 1:]
Feel like I'm slackin' with my children
Focusing on rap tryna back and shake the building
In a race with my own race, just to raise the roof
And I ain't talking 'bout the ceiling
Here's something to believe in:
No sleep, cause you're livin' what you're dreamin'
And it's the lesson in itself
I've my son to call me dad when I miss the parents evenings
[?] I'm still breathin';
Every other [?] I feel my insides bleedin'.
Grandad, turnin' in his grave,
Cah I promised that I'll be there for my gran when she's grievin'
I used to be a man of my word;
Now, time seems to have got the best of my sentence
In that case I'll have to adjourn,
Cause the fruit of an excuse is just as bad as the intention

[Hook:]
Excuse me, my friend
I think I might've hit my head
Excuse me, my friend
I don't remember who I am
Cause I'm holdin' on tryna be somebody
But it won't be long before I need somebody
Forgiveness, asking for forgiveness (hey, hey, hey, hey) [x4]

[Verse 2:]
Went to church to pray for a top ten
Then I win number 5, I ain't been back again
But when my jury friend phones
Like they got new rings I'll most likely attend
Walkin' out a new benz, start to call from outside
When is this gonna end?
My mum's still livin' in the [?],
Kids on a wrist before I put her wings to length
I'm still livin' like a [?]
And no I don't wanna bet [?]
Would they take me to the miss
I swear I only came for the music, but the more I touch notes,
It's like the more I get stupid
It's a gift and a curse, but before I play myself,
I'm a say this for the [?]

[Hook:]
Excuse me, my friend
I think I might've hit my head
Excuse me, my friend
I don't remember who I am
Cause I'm holdin' on tryna be somebody
But it won't be long before I need somebody
Forgiveness, asking for forgiveness (hey, hey, hey, hey) [x4]
