[00:13.07]I'm sensitive, I feel everything, I feel everybody
[00:16.94]One man standin' on two words, heal everybody
[00:20.29]Transformation, then reciprocation, karma must return
[00:23.90]Heal myself, secrets that I hide, buried in these words
[00:27.17]Death threats, ego must die, but I let it purge
[00:30.53]Pacify broken, pieces of me, it was all a blur
[00:34.15]Mother cried, put they hands on her, it was family ties
[00:37.41]I heard it all, I should've grabbed a gun, but I was only five
[00:40.84]I still feel it weighin' on my heart, my first tough decision
[00:44.34]In the shadows clingin' to my soul as my only critic
[00:47.81]Where's my faith? Told you I was Christian, but just not today
[00:51.17]I transformed, prayin' to the trees, God is taken shape
[00:54.52]My mother's mother followed me for years in her afterlife
[00:57.87]Starin' at me on back of some buses, I wake up at night
[01:01.49]Loved her dearly, traded in my tears for a Range Rover
[01:04.84]Transformation, you ain't felt grief 'til you felt it sober
[01:08.32]I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[01:19.79]Ooh, I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[01:35.63]I remember lookin' in the mirror knowin' I was gifted
[01:39.24]Only child, me for seven years, everything for Christmas
[01:42.66]Family ties, they accused my cousin, "Did he touch you Kendrick?"
[01:46.07]Never lied, but no one believed me when I said "He didn't"
[01:49.48]Frozen moments, still holdin' on it, hard to trust myself
[01:52.84]I started rhymin', copin' mechanisms to lift up myself
[01:56.18]Talked to my lawyer, told me not to be so hard on myself
[01:59.54]He has an aura, I hope to achieve, if I find some help
[02:03.06]Congratulations, made it to be famous, still I feel uneasy
[02:06.68]Water watchin', live my life in nature, only thing relieves me
[02:10.12]Spirit guide whisper in my ear tell me that she sees me
[02:13.47]"Did he touch you?" I said "No" again, still they didn't believe me
[02:16.98]Mother's brother said he got revenge for my mother's face
[02:20.33]Black and blue, the image of my queen that I can't erase
[02:23.68]'Til this day can't look her in the eyes pain is takin' over
[02:27.19]Blame myself, you never felt guilt 'til you felt it sober
[02:30.53]I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[02:42.12]Ooh, I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[02:57.83]I was never high, I was never drunk, never out my mind
[03:01.34]I need control, they handed me some smoke, but still I declined
[03:04.85]I did it sober sittin' with myself, I went through all emotions
[03:08.38]No dependents, except for one, let me bring you closer
[03:11.73]Intoxicated, there's a lustful nature that I failed to mention
[03:15.26]Insecurities that I project, sleepin' with other women
[03:18.62]Whitney's hurt, the pure soul I know, I found her in the kitchen
[03:22.02]Askin' God "Where did I lose myself? And can it be forgiven?"
[03:25.38]Broke me down, she looked me in my eyes, "Is there an addiction?"
[03:28.78]I said "No", but this time I lied, I knew that I can't fix it
[03:32.38]Pure soul, even in her pain, know she cared for me
[03:35.53]Gave me a number, said she recommended some therapy
[03:39.03]I asked my momma why she didn't believe me when I told her "No"
[03:42.66]I never knew she was violated in Chicago, I'm sympathetic
[03:47.07]Told me that she feared it happened to me, for my protection
[03:50.43]Though it never happened, she wouldn't agree
[03:52.70]Now I'm affected, twenty years later trauma has resurfaced
[03:56.49]Amplified as I write this song, I shiver 'cause I'm nervous
[03:59.85]I was five, questioning myself, 'lone for many years
[04:03.19]Nothing's wrong, just results on how them questions made me feel
[04:06.60]I made it home, seven years of tour, chasin' manhood
[04:09.83]But Whitney's gone, by time you hear this song, she did all she could
[04:13.45]All those women gave me superpowers, what I thought I lacked
[04:16.79]I pray our children don't inherit me and feelings
[04:19.60]I attract a conversation, not bein' addressed in black families
[04:23.63]The devastation hauntin' generations and humanity
[04:27.05]They raped our mothers, then they raped our sisters
[04:29.34]Then they made us watch, then made us rape each other
[04:31.91]Psychotic torture between our lives we ain't recovered
[04:34.99]Still livin' as victims in the public eyes who pledge allegiance
[04:38.37]Every other brother has been compromised
[04:40.83]I know the secrets, every other rapper sexually abused
[04:44.18]I see 'em daily buryin' they pain in chains and tattoos
[04:47.62]So listen close before you start to pass judgement on how we move
[04:51.10]Learn how we cope, whenever his uncle had to walk him from school
[04:54.47]His anger grows deep in misogyny
[04:56.67]This is post-traumatic black families and a sodomy, today is still active
[05:01.50]So I set free myself from all the guilt that I thought I made
[05:04.85]So I set free my mother all the hurt that she titled shame
[05:08.20]So I set free my cousin, chaotic for my mother's pain
[05:11.82]I hope Hykeem made you proud, 'cause you ain't die in vain
[05:15.18]So I set free the power of Whitney, may she heal us all
[05:18.70]So I set free our children, may good karma keep them with God
[05:22.05]So I set free the hearts filled with hatred, keep our bodies sacred
[05:25.50]As I set free all you abusers, this is transformation
[05:29.01]I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[05:42.16]Ooh, I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself
[05:56.53]You did it, I'm proud of you You broke a generational curse
[06:06.06]Say "Thank you dad" Thank you daddy, thank you mommy, thank you brother Mr. Morale
[06:23.92]Before I go in fast asleep, love me for me I bare my soul and now we're free
