Starving artist. Starving artist with bills. Starving artist with bills that aren't covered by income generated by art. Starving artist with bills that aren't covered by income generated by art, but we do it for the love. What results, one must ask for forgiveness. Please Forgive Me.

lyrics

Please Forgive Me

Verse 1
Got the right touch for the finer things in life.
It all comes at you at once. You gotta know how to decipher.
I might be equal parts Daft Punk, and Phife Dawg.
Either way that’s top quality that’s what I strive for. I’m like a Cyborg. The way I go hand in hand
With the drum pad and the keys that make me half a man.
‘Cause I’m half amazing. They say genius borders crazy.
Well if that’s what it boils down to, then I’m psycho on the daily.
Lately I’m a sought after stock. If we’re gonna be honest, to corporates, that’s all that we are.
I try my best to stay fully charged up for the chariot.
Elijah swingin’ low to upgrade me to the Marriott.
Scary thoughts try to plague my mind while climbing to the top.
It’s a bitch how powerful they are and how hard it is to stop.
But I trot on and try to let by-gones, be by-gones, by George, I think he’s got it now.

Chorus - (Please Forgive me x4)

Verse 2
Party like everyday’s our birthday, we deserve it now.
Circus in town, even over there I’m gettin’ kicked out,
Probably too much a freak show. Set the stage for Meatloaf.
That’s the Rock n’ Roll lifestyle, gettin’ accustomed to how it goes. You already know.
Grew up in that Caribbean household. Everything is Irie. Come with the stress then we ghost.
North and South Pole, we’ll span the globe before hold us down
and lock us down in one place, we don’t take that shit for joke.
I mean who in their right mind pokes the bear and gets scared when it’s woke.
It’s a comical roast sometimes when they see Uncle Joe.
The Passover happens, put the lamb's blood on your door.
God’s wrath happens so fast, sweepin’ trash outta the road.
Hide your kids, hide your wife, ‘cause the retaliation ‘gon come at yeah.
While I walk the straight and narrow, workin’ on tones and timbres.
Downing ambers. Kicks kick me in my chest. Snare in my hair.
Fuck the world. No morning after pill

Chorus - (Please Forgive me x4)

Outro
A little bird told me to tell you, he’s got work to do. (Oohh ooh ooh)
A little bird told me to tell you, he’s got a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful plan for your life.
He’s got a plan for your life. (Life)
He’s got a plan for your life. (Life)
