[ Featuring Willie Jones ]
I gotta forgive me
I got a little bad blood with the man I was
When I left them promises empty
When I coulda said no, coulda stayed home
When the story coulda had a different ending
Wish I could unbreak some hearts
But sorry only goes so far
Why do I hold on so hard? Ayy, ayy
I gotta forgive me
I stole forty dollars, mama wallet sittin' on the counter
All them late-shift tips took her ten hours
Just a kid, but it still hurts to think about sometimes
Sixteen, small town star athlete
Had my best friend girl in the back seat
Lied straight to his face when he asked me
Wasn't right
Done a couple things only me and God knows, oh
Things I need to let go, let go, let go
I gotta forgive me
I got a little bad blood with the man I was
When I left them promises empty
When I coulda said no, coulda stayed home
When the story coulda had a different ending
Wish I could unbreak some hearts
But sorry only goes so far
Why do I hold on so hard? Ayy, ayy
I gotta forgive me
Daddy wasn't there, so I blamed me
Then I blamed him, then the whiskey
All this pointin' fingers ain't helpin', on God
All this rollin' in my head while I'm rollin' out your drive
Wouldn't pick up your phone and wouldn't let me inside
Three years down the drain all because of one night
I gotta forgive me
I got a little bad blood with the man I was
When I left them promises empty
When I coulda said no, coulda stayed home
When the story coulda had a different ending
Wish I could unbreak some hearts
But sorry only goes so far
Why do I hold on so hard? Ayy, ayy
I gotta forgive me, ayy, ayy
I gotta forgive me (I gotta let go, let go, let go)
