I Guess You Was RIght |
I guess you was right |
I said I had something in my eye I noticed look in my rear view |
I had blind spots my people gave a clear view |
Through my impurities I seen I need community |
Ambassador for Christ I get diplomat immunity |
Some say I’m cool, fresh for a while now |
Born in '84 a year after Wild Style |
To be honest I was cool with doin' me |
But 20 years from '84 I’m through with choosin' me |
And in the meantime my past gave me goosebumps |
'cause my past was full of bags like a school bus |
I always like the mirror, my reflection gave me chills |
Strep throat flow couldn’t say I wasn’t ill |
I always liked me, always chose my prerogative |
Do what I wanna do, other wise it’s derogative |
I thought I was royalty you can say elegant |
Too busy smashin' the ants to ever see the elephants |
Like the Poconos surrounded by water |
Drownin' in my sin lead my heart to the slaughter |
I know I messed up so I stand before mine |
I’m slowly on this long journey, land before time |
God you said pride was sin and sin would kill me, I guess you was right |
God you said you loved me better than I could love myself |
I wanna act like I’m too hard like I don’t have emotions or admit I’m wrong |
And if this song is crying then I hope the tears keep flowin' |
How I feel is wrong |
I was bound to fall |
I should have heard you call |
Now, I’mma lose it all |
See my pride’ll be the end of me |
I’m my own worst enemy |
I ain’t know what I was in for |
I really should have been gone |
Dang |
Selfish thinking that I could do it alone |
Now I’m alone, you were right, I was wrong |
It’s hard to admit that I’m filled with pride |
I’m alive, I guess you were right |
Now people told me if I wanna get respect |
Then I better go ahead and turn my swag on now |
My momma said that my nose so high |
If the Lord made it rain then I would drown |
OK, I really hate to admit but she was right |
Wasn’t nothing you could do or could tell me I wasn’t tight |
It’s like Joe Jackson, when I write |
Better yet you can say I whoop mikes |
Drowning in my Kool-Aid, can’t drink it all |
Is this the price that you pay to ball |
I think the devil is clown, try to trick us all |
'Cause first pride come, then the fall |
God you said pride was sin and sin would kill me, I guess you was right |
God you said you loved me better than I could love myself |
I wanna act like I’m too hard like I don’t have emotions or admit I’m wrong |
And if this song is crying then I hope the tears keep flowin' |
Look in the past, been living to fast |
Brothas giving me dap while everyone hearing me rap |
I was rapping imagine a brotha given a chance |
To give it all up on the stage for the one who was smashed |
Saw a lady sitting up in the back |
Give Aaron the little smile from the eye contact |
There was eye contact |
Then I got her number then everything fumble so I had to start from scratch |
But that’s just another story how I grew up |
Better remember the brotha that everybody would call a screw up |
I never knew the enemy wanted to make me foolish |
And doing the dum dum, the stupidest things too much |
And too much and they would gather around |
Simmering down, settling down and sitting me down |
And I’m looking around like «what a brotha do now?» |
Finna get another rebuke from the brothas around me |
God you said pride was sin and sin would kill me, I guess you was right |
God you said you loved me better than I could love myself |
I wanna act like I’m too hard like I don’t have emotions or admit I’m wrong |
And if this song is crying then I hope the tears keep flowin' |
How I feel is wrong |
I was bound to fall |
I should have heard you call |
Now, I’mma lose it all |
See my pride’ll be the end of me |
I’m my own worst enemy |
I ain’t know what I was in for |
I really should have been gone |
Dang |
Selfish thinking that I could do it alone |
Now I’m alone, you were right, I was wrong |
