Sorry |
just point at me and ill begin where the twirl ends |
its difficult to open up, wounds that never shut |
and watch it bleed while these rap critics eat it up but such is destiny, a limit of choice |
I’m the coppertone chiller, with the little kid voice |
used to never talk, thoughts too deep, they’re philosophical |
to drop interpretations, quite logical |
systematic pressure, I ingest and write my letters |
the misery, visibly, breaking me, physically |
I walk around half-smiles, hiding pain deep, knowing that I ain’t feelin |
right and it’s hard to sleep/ subconsciously worry about my mom and poppa |
she want another life where she marry her a doctor |
and after all these years it’s just tears |
she wanted something more, but it’s hard to shift the gears |
pops stressin out, didn’t know he did nuttin wrong |
apologetic, say your sorry but the hurt has been done |
same old song, but I don’t understand the melody |
treated like a criminal, third strike felony |
its hard as fuck when you see your pop cry |
lookin deep into my face never blinkin an eye |
say your sorry |
sorry, didn’t mean to hurt nobody |
sorry, never knew I was hurtin you |
I’m sorry |
yo this is for the ladies that I did wrong, it’s sort of crazy |
that I would write these words up in a song, hopin maybe |
to get some closure, relationship’s already over |
I’m healthy and I’m sober, no brownies made of doja |
born in october, I’m a libra in my placement |
the qualities of my sign, they leave me here adjacent |
to romance, I cant say ive been faithul |
ive cheated many times, for experience I’m grateful |
even, bleak and honest, posturin like a madonnas |
while kissin on your neck, pullin deeper marijuanas |
manipulatin, you was giving, I was taking |
my girl weve been forsaken, like muslims eating bacon |
its kinda squalor, I dont know what else to call it you opened up your heart and I had to go and spoil it this is for the sisters who I really got deep |
nicky, jackie, queen afuya, Big T all due respect cause we met for a purpose |
I hope you ain’t ashamed cause the time wasn’t worthless |
I’m sorry |
to all my homies gettin my back, I’m never lonely |
if I ever dis, raised a fist, I was only |
caught up in the moment, thought you was my opponent |
I saw myself in you for a minute, and I wanted |
to fight me, likely I was mad at self |
sometimes it’s easier to blame someone else |
without ya’ll couldn’t stand the constant demands of livin rap life |
It’s only right that we band/ together against the restless tides of oppression |
I’m firin rhymes like smith n wessun |
progression is made with a simple step, even jesus wept |
I’m lettin ya know too long, these feelings kept |
inside of my mind, true friends hard to find |
now that I let it out, we gotta shine cousin I’m so sorry |
