Get Back
A Reggae Tribute To The Beatles Vol. 1 Lyrics

I'm only, I'm only human y'all
I am just a human being, with all the flaws and imperfections that come with it.

Hello out there (I'm only human y'all)
I am reaching out to those who are listening, hoping to be understood and accepted.

Can you hear me? (I'm only human y'all)
I am asking for confirmation, seeking assurance that my message is being received.

It's an SOS to let me be me (I'm only human y'all)
This is a plea for help, asking for the freedom to be myself and not be judged unfairly.

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay (listen to me)
I am trying to get your attention and convey the importance of what I am saying.

And when they push you down
Referring to those who try to bring you down, whether it be through criticism, hatred or negative actions.

You got to get back up (I'm only human y'all)
Even when faced with adversity and hardship, you must find the strength to stand back up and keep going.

You got to get back up (I'm just human y'all)
Despite my flaws and mistakes, I will keep moving forward and not give up.

Brush the dirt off your jersey then go for the cup
Shake off the negativity and keep striving towards your goals, no matter how difficult it may seem.

Or the trophy or the ring, champion no matter what
No matter what the outcome, keep fighting until you reach your desired level of success and become a champion in your own right.

'Cause when you got the belt and the ring
When you have achieved success and become a champion, people will want to celebrate with you and share in your joy.

People with ya popping bottles, taking pictures look around
Those who were once against you will suddenly want to be associated with you and share in your success.

As soon as you fall down all the haters passin' judgement (oh no no)
The moment you face failure or defeat, those who were once your enemies will quickly judge and criticize you.

Fly I'm is shawty, I'ma rise above this (oh no no no no no)
I will not let the negativity and criticism bring me down, I will rise above it and keep flying towards my goals.

Ay, what it is world? Yeah it's me again
I am addressing the world, acknowledging my past mistakes and seeking to move forward.

Back before you, at your mercy on bended knee again
I am once again seeking forgiveness and understanding, acknowledging my vulnerability and need for acceptance.

No running from the truth (nah) as much as we pretend
We cannot run away from our past mistakes and shortcomings, no matter how hard we may try to deny them.

That it ain't what it is, then it hits CNN
No matter how much we try to hide our flaws, they will eventually come to light and become public knowledge.

Apologies to my fans and my closest friends (I'm sorry)
I am expressing regret and asking for forgiveness from those who have supported me through my journey.

For letting you down, I wont take you down this road again
I am acknowledging my past mistakes and promising not to repeat them, especially as it relates to disappointing those who have supported me.

Most of you now saying whatever, here we go again (what?)
Many people are quick to dismiss or mock my apologies, feeling that I will just repeat the same mistakes.

Blogs, radio, and television all going in
The media is quick to broadcast and scrutinize my mistakes, often making it difficult to move past them.

I laugh to keep from crying through all of the embarrassment (I gotta say)
I use humor as a coping mechanism to deal with the embarrassment and shame of my past mistakes.

I gotta say you fucking haters is hilarious
Despite the negativity and criticism, I find it amusing that people are so invested in tearing me down.

How dare you sit right there and act as if you holier than thou
I find it hypocritical for people to judge and criticize me, pretending to be morally superior when they have their own flaws and mistakes.

Point your finger now with me looking down
People are quick to point out my flaws, making me feel ashamed and inferior.

Same clown that was twitpic'ing at my wedding
People who once supported me are now criticizing me, despite having been friendly with me in the past.

On the same Twitter page disrespecting
The same people who once supported me are now using social media to criticize and disrespect me.

Wait a second (hold up)
I am asking for a moment to speak, to respond to the criticism and accusations against me.

Never mind my imperfections this is fact, remember that
Despite my flaws, what I am saying is truthful and factual, and should be considered on its own merits.

No mistakes too great to recover and bounce back
No matter how great the mistake, it is always possible to recover and move forward, through hard work and dedication.

I admit, yeah, I done some dumb shit
I am acknowledging my past mistakes, accepting responsibility for my actions and hoping to move past them.

Disappointed everybody I know (damn)
I feel ashamed and guilty for having let down those who I care about and who have supported me.

Try not to hold that against me though
I am asking for forgiveness and hope that people will not hold my past mistakes against me when considering me as a person.

My road to redemption has no GPS
I am acknowledging that the path to redemption and forgiveness is not always clear or easy, and requires dedication and work.

So guess the time must be invested for this to be manifested
Achieving true redemption and forgiveness requires a significant investment of time and effort.

Yes it's hard living life in the spotlight
Living a public life, with the constant scrutiny and criticism that comes with it, is incredibly difficult and challenging.

Trying to dodge the haters same time as the cop light
Dealing with negative attention and criticism while also trying to avoid law enforcement is a daunting task.

The bible say, "Let he without sin cast the stone first" (stone first)
This is a reference to a biblical passage that says that only those who are without sin have the right to judge others, and that we should be compassionate and forgiving towards those who have made mistakes.

The sinner or the one who judged him, who was wrong first?
Who is really at fault: the person who made the mistake, or the person who is judging and criticizing them?

Yeah he go to work, never done no drugs up until the Fed

He just drink his liquor, touch his kids, beat his wife instead

Is it fair to define a person solely based on their mistakes, or should their positive impact on the world also be considered?
