Tell me how I could forget (yeah)
Said I wouldn't be this, I couldn't be that but look at where I'm at (yeah)
I remember sittin' in the studio 
They was talkin' mad trash about me and my beats
I'd be lyin' if I didn't say it got to me (check it)
No matter how hard it gets, you always got to keep steppin'
So my ambition got me pointed in the right direction
Fueled by depression and life lessons
I learned when it comes to being real, ain't no second guessing
In this world being black feels more like a crime
And some sins are harder to face in the daytime
They rather see me struggle for a buck and bust a nine
But imma play my violin and just bust these rhymes
The truth is hard to find with your eyes closed
Theres always a priced to pay, I hope you got the dough
My father told me to bundle up, son this world is cold
But be humble and never let them crush your soul
I'm too blessed, yet too stressed. And sometimes afraid to do my best
I'm just looking for a place to put these bones to rest
So I tell the naked truth and watch the lies undress
How could I forget
(Tell me how could I forget, what you said to me? - mmm)
Said I wouldn't be this, said I couldn't be that
But look at where I'm at (yeah)
(How could I forget, what you said to me? - mmm)
Tell me how could I forget
Said I wouldn't be this, said I couldn't be that
But look at where I'm at
A lot of these cats are two-timing and grimy
But I bet if I disappear, you wouldn't even try to find me
I don't blame you, I'm still trying to find me
The real me, the one I was designed to be (yeah)
And I don't know where to start
I got the mind of an underdog, but a lion at heart, So I roar and I bark
I guess that what I get for all those nights I prayed "lord, set me apart"
I'm finding freedom of expression in an art 
But I've seen the sweetest taste of sin get tart 
But a lot of my homies be on them trees like bark
I'm just tryin' balance being book and street smart
So before I die and watch the world go dark
I'm getting everything in store, just need a bigger cart
Soul searching be the hardest part
So I lace up my shoes and follow heart
How could I forget
(Tell me how could I forget, what you said to me? - mmm)
Said I wouldn't be this, said I couldn't be that
But look at where I'm at (yeah)
(How could I forget, what you said to me? - mmm)
Tell me how could I forget
Said I wouldn't be this, said I couldn't be that
But look at where I'm at
