I've said a lot of things that have pushed people away, and I admit that I made that mistake

Story behind the song
I wanted the people that were close to me to come back after I said a lot of things that I shouldn't have said...
Lyrics
(Intro) Yeah, I hear people talkin', Sayin' so many thing, I shouldn't rap, shouldn't write, shouldn't produce, shouldn't be around, I've said so many things in the past, I hurt them, But you know what, I'm back, Just give me another chance... I speak fluently, but some things don't come out right, 'Cause some words I say cuts like a knife, I didn't mean any harm, but it did just that, Anything I said, I want to take that back, But I can't, I used up all my chances, So I hope what I'm sayin' can replace this, I feel bad, Some of my feelings got messed with, And I twisted up lyrics in every bandwidth, What may have sounded good to me, made you angry, And the after effect is startin' to make me see, That I waited too long, to write another song, And say what I really did wrong, My whole aspect of life is making me think, That you get everything thrown at you, the kitchen sink, And when the whole thing spins in this tornado, How can you walk around wearing a halo? There was a time when I was influenced by the devil, And never effected the sight in my retinals, I bet you all, that I can come back from this, 'Casue it hurts me like a cyst, believe this, Listen to some of things that I have to say, Envision a better person, a better display, I regret being human for things in the past, I'm better than that, if I had another chance... Influential, hypothetically speaking, Realizing that wrong is right in some things, But it takes time to be in the frame of mind, To be part of this mankind, It reminds me, when I was never even heard, Reciting things that were on my heart, every single word, Everything boiled over, and I was just one-third, Of a whole new person, and never made the turn, I learned soon enough, life was tough, But I can't streamline it, if I get no love, I look at myself now, I remember how, I was so passionate, then it all went down, Never counted out, I kept getting off my back, Some even held me down, cut me some slack, 'Cause if you push me towards hell, I've already been there, Now I'm back on Earth, so don't be scared, I figure if I give everyone another chance, To show the man upstairs, I have my own cadence, If you march one way, I'm going diagonal, If I rub you wrong, it's just retributional, Not intentional, I realize that, 'Cause what I have lost, I'm starting to get back, So you can come close, or look from a long glance, To see me, if I have another chance... Some still say that I shouldn't be in rap, These are the ones that listen to that other crap, I mean the ones that don't respect hip-hop, And realize that I'm here standing on top, Cop an attitude,, and you think I'm rude, What you say to me is more crude, I've been refused by too many, you just joined them, I still spit this track out like flem, Don't look at the color, listen to the words on this page, And we all sound the same, the internal rage, It comes across different, it's you I represent, The feelings in this heart of mine, can't repent, Resent the fact, that you don't like me at all, And you're in the wrong court, I got the ball, Call me a show-off, 'Cause I've already heard enough, I'm beyond you, and I caught your bluff, Real love, there's few that give it, The ones that do, in this life, they are a part of it, So the best thing to do before you throw a fit, Is all the hatin' that you do, you might as well quit, Look at me now as a better representation, Of a human like you, and the life ahead, and, If it's all good, then it's no more fence, Between us when given another chance...
