Wretch 32 - Forgiveness ft Etta Bond lyrics

rate me

Feel like I’m slackin’ with my children

Focusing on rap *tryna* pack 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

How* my son can call me dad when I miss the parents evenings

Amazed that I’m still breathin’;

Every other shot i feel my insides bleedin’.

Grandad, turnin’ in his grave,

Cause 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 thought 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]

Went to church to pray for a top ten

Then I went number 5, I ain’t been back again

But when my jewellery friend phones

Like they got new rings I’ll most likely attend

Hoppin' out a new benz, start the car from outside

When is this gonna end?

Cah mum’s still livin’ in the endz ..spend jibbs on the wrist

before I put her with celebs

I’m still livin’ like a wretch all i hear is fuck fuck

all the girls got turrets

And no I don’t wanna bet even the odd birds

Wanna take me to the nest

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 than a curse, but before I blame myself,

Imma say it's what the tunes did

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]
