    Wrong
    Wrong
    Wrong

    I was born with the wrong sign
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy
    I took the wrong road
    That led to the wrong tendencies
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
    On the wrong day of the wrong week
    I used the wrong method with the wrong technique

    Wrong
    Wrong

    There's something wrong with me chemically
    Something wrong with me inherently
    The wrong mix in the wrong genes
    I reached the wrong ends by the wrong means
    It was the wrong plan
    In the wrong hands
    With the wrong theory for the wrong man
    The wrong lies, on the wrong vibes
    The wrong questions with the wrong replies

    Wrong
    Wrong

    I was marching to the wrong drum
    With the wrong scum
    Pissing out the wrong energy
    Using all the wrong lines
    And the wrong signs
    With the wrong intensity
    I was on the wrong page of the wrong book
    With the wrong rendition of the wrong hook
    Made the wrong move, every wrong night
    With the wrong tune played 'til it sounded right, yeah

    Wrong
    Wrong
    Too long
    Wrong
    Too long
    Wrong
    Too long
    Wrong
    Too long
    Wrong
    Too long

    I was born with the wrong sign (wrong)
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy (too long)
    I took the wrong road (wrong)
    That led to the wrong tendencies (too long)
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time (wrong)
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme (too long)
    On the wrong day of the wrong week (wrong)
    I used the wrong method with the wrong technique
