Right My Wrongs

I been distant lately
Cause my demons tried to take me
But would you say I'm goin' crazy
Naw, that's why I've been actin' shady
See, I'm just tryna pick my head up, my head up
Finding ways to get my bread up, my bread up
I'm just tryna live a good life, a good life
And all I want is just to make it right
Alright let me right my wrongs

I was 15 tryna fit in with my peers
All it did was give me pain
Hurt so much it gave me tears
Can you tell me who I am?
You switch up, I'm switchin' gears
Cause I was lookin' for the answers and it took so many years
I was lookin' in the mirror, I was talkin' to the man
Way too busy havin' fun but I know that's not the plan
I knew I had to change my ways, I was doin' what I can
Can't go back into the past, I can't deal with that again

You see, I been distant lately
Cause my demons tried to take me
But would you say I'm goin' crazy
Naw, that's why I've been actin' shady
See, I'm just tryna pick my head up, my head up
Finding ways to get my bread up, my bread up
I'm just tryna live a good life, a good life
And all I want is just to make it right
Alright let me right my wrongs

I was just a youngin' tryna find myself
Cause it ain't easy being happy when you by yourself
So I tried to make some friends but that didn't help
I was meant to be alone, that's the pain I felt
Let's go back to grade school where it all started
Shit, I used to crack a smile, I was kind hearted
But that smile went away cause I became a target
Victim of colorism damn, that was disregarded
Can you tell me why?
So I started lookin' for attention
Let these niggas know my name, that was my ambition
Hold up, I don't think they care about my intuition
Cause just like any bad boy, I was in detention
Wrong recognition
What's the lesson that I learned?
Peer pressure is a drug
You don't fit in with them other niggas
You are not a thug
You might look a little different
Being different is a compliment
Confidence is all you really need
Ain't no stoppin' it

I been distant lately
Cause my demons tried to take me
But would you say I'm goin' crazy
Naw, that's why I've been actin' shady
See, I'm just tryna pick my head up, my head up
Finding ways to get my bread up, my bread up
I'm just tryna live a good life, a good life
And all I want is just to make it right
Alright let me right my wrongs

I was just a youngin' tryna find myself
Cause it ain't easy being happy when you by yourself
It's never easy workin' hard for that proper growth
I let the military take me, so I took that oath
Can you become a better man; learn to be a soldier?
You were waitin' for yo chance, well, the wait is over
But now they feel intimidated cause I'm gettin' older
They wanna come back in my life, I guess they want some closure
Here's the exposure
If you strive to make yo future better
Real G's move in silence that ain't just a letter
You wanted her for yo support, so you tried to get her
Just stay heavy on your words, all these hoes are bitter
Never say never
Got a plan with a back up plan
I gotta let it happen
I can't fail, ain't no turnin' back
You won't catch me lackin'
I'm not cappin'
I been on my grind, I'm not givin' up
Middle finger to these bitches and these niggas
I don't give a fuck

I been distant lately
Cause my demons tried to take me
But would you say I'm goin' crazy
Naw, that's why I've been actin' shady
See, I'm just tryna pick my head up, my head up
Finding ways to get my bread up, my bread up
I'm just tryna live a good life, a good life
And all I want is just to make it right
Alright let me right my wrongs
