Welcome to Android Central! Next time, write down your password on a piece of paper and keep it secure at home, like in a safe.

Try this method for a hard reset: Perform a Factory Data Reset (Device Powered Off) DROID RAZR / RAZR MAXX by MOTOROLA | Verizon Wireless

I read about this being a problem a while ago. Let me see if I can find the solution and I'll post it back. It'll take me a few hours though...
