Apologize Lyrics by O’hene Savant

Inner City Soul

0

Verse 1:
I apologize to the kids born in poverty
Whose elders have perished from heart disease
Whose fathers are deadbeat dads
Whose mamas are low income and can barely stand
To pay the rent let alone doctor bills
For them there’s no Dr. Phil but see to get two jobs and go strip
Both roads a dead end, being poor in America you’re less than
While the educational system fails us
And tells us the unlearned man is helpless
Which compels us to turn to hustlers
We all need loot, tell me where’s the justice?
Much as I hate to cry
When I think of the slaughter the water escapes my eyes
I realize now you’re worth your wallet size
So for that I apologize
Chorus (Sheda B):
We apologize to you
There is so much we did and do
And there’s really no excuse
We apologize to you
Verse 2:
I apologize that this nation’s still got racists
Let’s face it, there’s hatred and segregation
I’m still the nigga, America hates me
Mainly because of how the news portrays me
They make me out to be this lazy foul-
Mouthed gangbanger who won’t raise his child
That’s why the cops always harassing us
We try to show ‘em ID, they start blasting us
They heard too many raps of us where cats’ll cuss
But on the real that ain’t half of us
Many of us wanna spit stuff that matters
But the labels change you and your subject matters
But this is so the kids from the hood can cuss too
And hustle like the emcees they look up to
Much to our own demise, we are shown to die
And so for that I apologize
Chorus (Sheda B):
We apologize to you
There is so much we did and do
And there’s really no excuse
We apologize to you
Verse 3:
I apologize to the elders who died for us
Montgomery folks who ain’t ride the bus
To the one those racists lynch
Standing firm in front of the state trooper
Refuse to flinch
Unsung heroes were slain for you
Be it there should be a big holiday for you
And everybody like you who was fearless
The dearest to my heart, I hope you can hear this
Matter of fact I know you can hear this
It’s ‘cause of you I could never make nigga a term of endearment
While most of my peers is claiming it’s worthless
A perfect example of our disservice
Purchase our purses and [?]
Saying, "Later with that history, holler back"
‘cause it’s all about dough, those dollar signs
And so for that I apologize
Chorus (Sheda B):
We apologize to you
There is so much we did and do
And there’s really no excuse
We apologize to you
