forgive me
Jeezy Ft. Monica Lyrics

I been thuggin' my whole fuckin' life
I have been living a rough and tough life since I was born.

One look at my baby girl I had to get it right
When I saw my daughter, I realized I needed to turn my life around and be a better person.

Superman in these streets hey but you my kryptonite
I am usually powerful and confident in the streets, but you have the power to weaken me emotionally.

I'm on this drink, I'm on this smoke, I'm going super Crip tonight
I am indulging in alcohol and drugs, and feeling invincible tonight.

Something like a scientist, I mix it like it's antidote
I mix drugs like a scientist, trying to create a cure or some form of relief.

Then I sent that 8 ball down the block Scrappy Loc
I sold some drugs to a person named Scrappy Loc down the street.

Rest in peace to Pookie Loc, blame it on me never snitching
Pookie Loc is deceased, and I will never reveal any information about who caused his death.

Lord knows I ain't send the homie on no dummy mission
I did not send my friend on a dangerous or unnecessary mission.

Want to be like Uncle Wade can't believe I sold him crack
I admired my uncle and did not intend to harm him, but I ended up selling drugs to him.

Still a hero in my eyes, you up in heaven tell him that
My uncle is still a hero to me, and I hope he knows that even though he is in heaven now.

Don't tell me how to raise my son just know he gone be a man
I will raise my son in my own way, but I hope he grows up to be a responsible adult.

If the scale is 1-10, just know he gone be a grand
My son is going to be amazing, even if we are just rating him on a scale of 1-10.

Before I stand with flaw niggas I would rather stand alone
I would rather be alone than associate with people who have bad qualities or flaws.

Till I'm stand, on the top like what he standing on
I will keep working hard until I am successful, like the person I look up to.

They say that I'm wishy washy, ain't nobody perfect though
People criticize me for being inconsistent, but no one is perfect.

They say Young you growing up, hope they know you worth it though
People acknowledge that I have matured, and I hope they recognize my value.

The shit I'm smoking on got me trippin' please forgive me
I am under the influence of drugs and not in the right state of mind. Please pardon my behavior.

The shit I'm sippin' on got me trippin' will you forgive me
I am drunk and acting unusual. Can you forgive me?

Look you in your eyes when I'm talking know you hear me
I am looking directly at you in the eyes so that I know you hear what I am saying.

Just listen to the words to the song I know you feel me
Pay attention to the lyrics of this song because I am expressing my true feelings.

'Cause ain't nobody perfect in this world please forgive me
Nobody is perfect, which is why I am asking for forgiveness.

I ain't them and they ain't me maybe that's the disconnect
I am different from other people, and that may be why we do not understand each other.

I do my tequila straight but I do not do disrespect
I drink tequila without mixing it, but I do not tolerate disrespect.

You know I remind them though forgetful niggas they forget
I remind people who forget things, even though I sometimes forget too.

Before the deal I had a check and I put that on the set
I had money before I became famous, and I swear on my reputation that this is true.

Breaking units down in Fatty room, white mountains on the dresser
I used to break down drugs in a room belonging to a person named Fatty, and there were piles of cocaine on the dresser.

Forgive me Auntie Sarah when we fell out look I knew it's stressful
I am sorry, Auntie Sarah, for our falling out. I know it was difficult for both of us.

Wasn't for you I ride on 'em, look we in a rival gang
If it were not for you, I would have fought with the people in the opposite gang.

You know I'm screaming "fuck the other side," guess that just a rival thing
I express hatred towards the opposing gang, but that is just a common sentiment among rival gangs.

100 dollars re'ing up. back then we always talked
I used to purchase drugs for $100, and back then we used to have more meaningful conversations.

But since the fame ain't been the same
Since I became famous, my life has changed a lot, and things are not the same as they used to be.

Forgive me Mrs Brenda Ross, nah not your nephew acting like a rap nigga
I am sorry, Mrs. Brenda Ross, but your nephew is not acting like a typical rapper.

Like I ain't sit on your front porch talk shit and trap with you
I have spent time with you on your front porch, where we talked and sold drugs.

You asked me to help with your wedding, argument in front your kids
You asked me to assist with your wedding, but we had an argument in front of your children.

Hurts me to the very day, lamest shit I ever did
I regret that argument and it still pains me to this day. It is one of the worst things I have ever done.

So please forgive me lil sister because I know I hurt your soul
I am asking for forgiveness from my little sister because I know I have caused her emotional pain.

Your husband is a lucky man I hope he know you worth it though
I believe that your husband is fortunate to have you, and I hope he knows how valuable you are.
