MAYBE I’M WRONG Lyrics – The Kid LAROI | from “BEFORE I FORGET”

The Kid LAROI is about to bare it all with BEFORE I FORGET, his sophomore album hitting shelves January 9 via Columbia Records, and MAYBE I’M WRONG feels like that quiet gut-punch moment where doubt creeps in just as everything else builds to a roar.

Charli XCX’s shadow collaborator turned solo phenom, Laroi’s always had that emo-rap heart, but this track dials it back to acoustic-tinged pop with a punk edge, Fedi’s production layering fingerpicked riffs over swelling drums that build like bottled-up tears finally spilling. It’s got that intimate bedroom vibe, half-sung half-spoken, blending his signature vulnerability with a cleaner, more mature polish—no Auto-Tune haze here, just raw delivery that echoes early F*ck Love days but wiser, wearier.

Thematically, it’s peak Laroi: dissecting love’s messy exit ramps, owning the cold snaps and scrapped songs born from spite, only to circle back to “I love you too much to fight.” It’s not victory; it’s surrender, pondering if wrong’s just another word for growth, with bridges that loop like unanswered voicemails.

BEFORE I FORGET is LAROI’s reset button, a 15-track ride born from scrapping an entire finished album and rebuilding in just four months. It’s his most personal work to date, pulling from heartbreak, growth, and those late-night what-ifs that shaped his early twenties. The tracklist rolls out heavy hitters like “A PERFECT WORLD” and “A COLD PLAY” as lead singles, with features from Lithe on “RATHER BE,” Clara La San on “THE MOMENT,” and Andrew Aged on “5:21 AM.” Other standouts include “JULY,” “NEVER CAME BACK,” and the closer “BACK WHEN YOU WERE MINE.”

Right now, LAROI’s in that sweet spot of evolution—fresh off sold-out tours and collabs that put him on maps from Sydney to stadiums, he’s leaning harder into the storyteller side that made “STAY” a global earworm. This album feels like him claiming his voice beyond the hooks, turning fame’s chaos into something you can hold onto.
