[Intro]

Yeah, I get it

I get it, yeah

[Verse 1]

Why would I say all these things to have you feelin' a way?

Why would I tell you I'm 30 away if I'm not on the way?

Why do I settle for women that force me to pick up the pieces?

Why do I want an independent woman

To feel like she needs me?—I lost my way

[Chorus]

I'm searchin' for these words to say to you

Please give me time

Cause I'm searchin' for these words to say to you

Oh, please give me time

Cause I'm searchin' for these words to say to you right now

Redemption's on your mind when you think about me, yeah

Redemption's on your mind when you think about me, yeah

[Verse 2]

Run your mouth, I'd rather listen to someone else

I gave your nickname to someone else

I know you're seein' someone that loves you

And I don't want you to see no one else

I don't want you here with no one else

I don't wanna do this with no one else

I used to know you back when you was young

Your brother brought me through, you saw me

That made me think of you so differently

I miss the feeling of you missing me

But you say you're over and done with me

Aw, yeah, yeah, yeah

Aw, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

Now redemption's on your mind when you think about me

Aw yeah, yeah, yeah

Redemption's on your mind when you think about me

Aw yeah, yeah, yeah

Redemption's on your mind when you (Think about me)

Aw, please give me time

Cause I'm searchin' for these words

To say to you right now, yeah

[Verse 3]

Say to you—but eighty percent of it wasn't true, yeah

Say to you—a Mercedes coupe that you're still drivin'

Was for me and you, girl

Really gon' spend the winter with this other nigga?

Act like he's really the one to get through it with you

Cliqued up with Jessica, Kim

You know that I'm bound to see you

And they both say that you're over and done with me

Aw yeah, yeah, yeah

Aw yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

They say redemption's on your mind when you think about me

Yeah, aww yeah, yeah, yeah

Redemption's on your mind when you think about me

Aw yeah, yeah, yeah

Redemption's on your mind when you

Aw please give me time

Cause I'm searchin' for these words to say to you right now

[Verse 4]

Damn, I'm not unrealistic with none of my women

I tell them if they ain't with it then let's just forget it

Relationships slowin' me down, they slow down the vision

Guess I'm not in a position to deal with commitment

Certain people need to tell me they're proud of me

That mean a lot to me

Not havin' closure, it take a lot out of me

This year for Christmas I just want apologies

Sydney gave up on me when I went missin'

Syn had a baby and treated me different

Erika sued me and opened a business

Wonder if they wish it could've been different

Wonder what they'd do put in my position

I wonder, when my shit drop, do they listen?

Wonder if they're second guessin' their decisions

I hate the number 2, that shit is unforgiving

Tryna satisfy everybody, it's like they can't get enough

Until enough is enough, and then it's too much

You tip the scale when I weigh my options

West Palm girls are spoiled rotten

Tiffany on you, you know you poppin'

I'll kill somebody if they give you problems

Master bedroom's where we get it poppin'

Just ignore all the skeletons in my closet

I'm a walkin' come-up, I'm a bank deposit

Sell my secrets and get top dollar

Sell my secrets for a Range Rover

Opportunity and temptation

They would sell my secrets for a tropical vacation

Sell my secrets back to me if I was payin'

Who's gonna save me when I need savin'?

Since Take Care, I've been caretakin'

But second chances, that ain't how you livin'

Redemption on your mind, I'll never be forgiven

[Outro]

Yeah

I know
