Apologize
Redrama Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I live how I live,
Mind the difference
Apologized nine times,
The kid did
now I'm a man, damn if I sign your shitlist
I'm on the rise,
I'm trying to climb up
I chase a dream but rumors from a to z are chasing me now
I am what I am, do what I do
Chant if you chant,boo if you boo
Nothing to prove and nothing to hide I was guzzling booze a couple of times, what's up?
Me and the big man got an agreement
I can achieve it if I keep on believing aint reached my peak yet,
I hope I never will
Stand firm in this mad world,
Never kneel.
Too many questions,
Too many lies
But I've learned my lesson
From now on imma live my life
Did a lot of wrongs,
But I made them right
Now it's way too late for me to apologize
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead then
I'm only as good as my last show
My album went wood but you've got the tracks though
My clothes got sold out the back-door
But I don't give a fuck cus I got the bathrobe
So keep talking lies and rumors
But I'd keep walking if I was you bro
I payed my dues, I payed the price
And I faced the truth, I aim to rise
So I took the bruising, took the pain
And never looked the same, it never shook the man
I got to turn a page I can't turn a victim
leave a world of hate and burn the bridges
So is he this, is he that, is he rich is he broke?
Is he wack, is he dope, is he back?, yes!
Did he flip, did he flop, is he hip, is he hop is he pop, can he rap, what's happening?
Too many questions,
Too many lies
But I've learned my lesson
From now on imma live my life
Did a lot of wrongs,
But I made them right
Now it's way too late for me to apologize
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead then
Go ahead then, go ahead then
Go ahead then, go ahead then
Go ahead then, go ahead then
Too many questions,
Too many lies
But I've learned my lesson
From now on imma live my life
Did a lot of wrongs,
But I made them right
Now it's way too late for me to apologize
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead and doubt me,
Doubt me
All that you can
But a world without me, out me
Won't be the same
Go ahead then
