R Kelly - I Admit Lyrics

I admit I have made some mistakes
And I have some imperfect ways
I admit I helped so many people
And them same damn people turned fake
I admit it was so hard to focus
I didn't go to classes
I admit that I dropped out of school
I admit that I wasn't that cool
I admit that I just feel like retiring
I admit that I just don't feel like trying
But all my real niggas round me
keep tellin' me "Kells, fuck that you gotta keep climbing"
I admit it, I admit it i did, I done fucked with a couple of fans
I admit that I'm a gift and a curse
I admit that I don't go to church

[Chorus]
I admit it, admit it (I)
I admit it, I did it (I)
I admit it, I did (I)
I admit it, I did, did it
