about

One of the hardest songs on this album IMO

lyrics

Write My Wrongs

(Intro)
Yea. Uh. Same Difference.

(Verse 1)
I want to write a song so personal that my tears will soak the pages,
And from the moment that I write it then record its and perform it that feeling will last for ages,
I want to write the type of rap that make a person feel my soul and their touched by what I’m saying,
They know every word to it; they listen to the music when they’re going through a rough situation,
In their heart they feel me; they know the real me. I’m not putting up a falsification,
I want to write the type of song that make a person move on when they feel stuck in one station,
I want to pen the perfect verse that’ll reach somebody when they’re goin dire occasion,
I want it to be poignant. I can do it acapella: fuck the instrumentation,
I’mma write the best 16 that’ll mean something to somebody: even if it’s just 1 body,
I have a gift can’t not help nobody. So they gotta know ‘bout me

(Chorus)
I’mma write these songs to write my wrongs,
I’m giving you me when I write my wrongs,
It’s all from the heart when my mic is on,
When you rock with Top; you can’t go wrong,
I’mma write these songs to write my wrongs,
I’m giving you me when I write my wrongs,
It’s all from the heart when my mic is on,
When you rock with Top; you can’t go wrong

(Verse 2)
I wanna right (write) to show you I’m vulnerable,
Making my weakness honorable,
I wanna say what’s usually inaubdible,
And confess my sins that are unconscionable,
I wanna record something that’s meaningful,
I spent too much time being lyrical,
Why try to riddle you? Or belittle you?
When I can write something borderline spiritual,
But I don’t preach when a nigga do reach to you,
I connect my soul to each of you,
I wanna write tracks that make you feel like that I speak to you,
Like I’m just one seat from you,
But I don’t hide who am (no peek-a-boo),
I write songs for me and who they’re relating to,
I wanna give hope when they can’t make it through,
Hate it or love it: this what I’mma do

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
I wanna spill ink so you’ll think,
I wanna pour the blood of my veins on a beat,
I want us to connect like our souls had links,
I’mma write that song but gotta fix the kinks,
I wanna compose a heartfelt masterpiece,
Speak from the gut where light don’t reach,
Talk to White America, talk to The Streets,
The Pacific West to the Atlantic East,
I want what will solidify me as a beast,
Put me in a category none can compete,
‘Cause I could guide someone’s life when I speak,
While other rappers try to squeeze pennies out of speech,
I want a rap deep, so deep that you sink when you pay attention and your rhythm in sync,
I’m pulling no stops. Nope, none the least,
Throwing everything I got, huh, even the sink,
I want to write that song, that when it comes on,
Everything you feel is wrong is long gone,
See, I’ll write that song when I know I’m on,
I’ll give what’s left to right (write) my wrongs

(Chorus)
