Try Forgiveness is the title track on Rum's debut album, Try Forgiveness. Written and produced all by herself, the title track is a three minute and thirty two seconds long Alternative Hip Hop song featuring a catchy flow rapped over bouncy acoustic guitars, tambourines and a hard-hitting beat. Revealing the album's theme in both the music and the artwork, Rum takes some slight religious undertones and puts her own greedy spin on on them. "With new money comes new rules", the rapper carols, refusing to forgive anyone but willingly putting her feelings aside as so not to jeopardize her cash flow. She compares herself to Catholic saints with plenty of satire and a lot of frustration with how forgiving she is to the people that hurt her the most. The perfect way to introduce such a bold album, the song shows many different sides to Rum, the dangerous side, the godless side, the side that's driven by money/success and the side that has a soft spot for the people who can find her blindspots.
Only thing keeping me is my ability to reason
Never said I wouldn't, just needed a good reason
Different strokes for different folks, different plays for different games
Personally, I like to keep my values vague, no black and white, just tints of gray
They forgive and forget 'cause that's what's easier on the brain
Have I ever come off as sane?
Forgive and forget, that's what they all say, the go to phrase for all tryna live the right way
But do I look like a saint?
We don't let bygones be
Wrong one on the right day
Saint Paul with the swordplay
Cut you off in a few ways
Ain't been to church since '03
Saint Rumillani with the footwork
Cold blooded with a hellish quirk
I don't feel worse, I get worse
Saint Patrick, bringing in all this green
I guess I'll try forgiveness
Before, all I had was my soul to lose
With real money comes new rules
I'm a big deal, get a clue
When I start to relapse, I get reclusive
Prone to dumb shit but I aint stupid
Only thing keeping me here is my ability to love
Act like I don't care but I care too much
All the fighting I do for the people I don't need
They never return the favor, won't have to long as I got me
You never really cared, okay damn, I got the message
Really should ask myself if it's loyalty or obsession
Hits me like gravity, dies out faster than an incomplete combustion
Always half-assed but without it, can't function (Conjuction junction what's your function?)
As always, have at it, want you to be happy
Don't be naive, I'll never be sappy (Periodically needy, ultimately too lazy)
Sense sensitivity and I start​ getting snappy
I don't ask for much, don't annoy me and you can have me (A little dramatic but nothing too crazy)
It's clear I've been running on your mind lately
Know you got someone but that chica ain't me
Don't be naive, you weren't forgiven, I just never cared
If you had just came back, I wouldn't have cared
Just forget it
We don't let bygones be
Wrong one on the right day
Saint Paul with the swordplay
Cut you off in a few ways
Ain't been to church since '03
Saint Rumillani with the footwork
Cold blooded with a hellish quirk
I don't feel worse, I get worse

Before, all I had was my soul to lose
With real money comes new rules
I'm a big deal, get a clue
When I start to relapse, I get reclusive
Prone to dumb shit but I aint stupid
What's the point of forgiveness?
I'll never unfeel the feeling
I'll never live down my sins
When I die and go to hell, I just pray my bitches can visit
Some would kill for money, I'd keep you alive just to keep it
What comes first is my family eating
That's my weakness
We don't let bygones be
Wrong one on the right day

Would you try for a five?
Would you change for some change?
Let it be for the green?
Keep it cute for a blue strip?
Prone to dumb shit
But I ain't stupid
Me and the money
Perfect match, Cupid
