Who's the person you pretend to be?

Is that the one you intend to be?

Did you confess all of your sins?

So if you were given the chance

Would you still do it all again?


[Verse 1]

Ain't no going back in time to fix my oversights

Ain't no changing what I write to save my paradigms

I've been to paradise a couple times before

I roll a pair of dice to understand the chances we have moving forth

Cause all a sudden everything is looking different, uh

Cause all a sudden everything is not the same

They done switched up and changed

I've been mixed up and tamed

And I'm sick of being blamed for things I never did create

For all the problems that I face

Like Harvey Dent, I'm seeing double

Tried to Jet into first place

But missed the Mark and then I fumbled

Now they say the jig is up

And I saw them look at me puzzled

They gon' love me if I'm rich

But forget me through the struggle

So I wonder and I question if it's even all worth it

Can I live with expectations that I'm supposed to be perfect?

What if I turn away from faith and lose my wisdom and worship?

What if I die and learn that none of this was ever worth the hurt?

Did you confess all of your sins?

So if you were given the chance

Would you still do it all again?

Tell me what it is that you believe

And do you care for who you're meant to be?

I know you said all your regrets

But if you were given the chance

Would you still do it all again?


[Verse 2]

I did a couple things you know I'm not so proud of

And I said a lot of words, I know I caused you grief

And I know you thought the world of me until it all went down

But I keep speaking so remorsefully, the words that I pronounce

I wish I had the chance to do it all again, to take it back

And remind myself that this is not the way you should react

When you find your back against the wall

And things are changing fast, in fact

You're better off to walk away than to attack, uh

I know you're looking for some answers you can't find

I know you're praying the cancer doesn't survive

I know you wish you had the chance to live again

Before sickness took precedence

You felt the need to say goodbye

For every second I wasted tryna capture the moment

All the facts I debated, thinking I beat my opponents

I just develop my hatred, I start to notice my brokeness

Lose my focus, I'm slowly fading away into nothing
