Vic Mensa - Empathy Lyrics

I'm a magnet for hella bad energies
Got a tendency to make a lot of enemies
I'm an asshole when I get off the Hennessy
Probably only do it 'cause somebody did that shit to me

Empathy, empathy, yeah
Empathy, empathy
Working on my
Everything, everything, yeah
I promise

They say you shouldn't cast stones from a glass home
The whole world wanna see me fall, but I stand strong
I say what's right, but they don't hear me 'cause my past wrongs
I got so down on my luck, I made it a dance song
Reflected that on the women I've loved and left
Got a call from my ex, she forgive, but she can't forget
Sometimes I disrespect
I was just keeping it a stack
But all of my good intentions turn into bad press
And I confess if I sit and reflect on shit I regret
I did this and I did that
I was bogus, I was wack
I was s'posed to call you back
But I was trying to get some neck
Fighting my urges
Strip club splurges
And buying you purses
'Cause I know I'm doing wrong
Rolling like a stone
Got wifey back at home
But I don't like to answer phones
And as a man, we don't understand the damages we've sown
Just by stringing her along, and everybody heard the song
I f*cked up
Admit that I f*cked up
But I ain't do that though
So I wanna judge, but
I sound like an asshole
Holding my nuts up
We love to point the finger at everybody but us
Trust is fragile just like glass broke
Put it back together but it ain't gon' last though
It's a vicious cycle, it's a Lupe Fiasco
She wanna hear the truth, but you ain't true to your damn self
I know we need empathy

Working on my
Empathy, empathy, yeah
Empathy, empathy
Working on my
Everything, everything, yeah
Empathy, empathy
Empathy, empathy
Empathy, empathy
Working on my
Everything, everything
Empathy, empathy
