If you forgot the Apple ID (iCloud) password, enter the Apple (iCloud) ID, and click Forgot Password. See if you can get a Rescue or Notification email option if necessary. Link to contact Apple Support at the end of the 2nd article.

Thanks CrzyBoy777 for the quick answer, but the only password option I can find to change the password requires you to provide your current password and that's the problem, I cannot find my current password. I know that might sound ridiculous, but I have sooooooo many passwords for my Apple devices it makes me dizzy just having to look for them, sorry
