Here's the page about iCloud Activation Lock. There's a link there for contacting Apple if you forget your password. Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support
If that doesn't work and if you can prove to Apple that you're the original owner of the iPhone, they may help you remove the Activation Lock.

If it's the passcode you forgot, erase it using iTunes, iCloud or recovery mode:
