Gibson, who was once a member of a rap group called Triple Impact, released his self-titled debut music album, which went platinum, in 1998; his second album, 2000 Watts, shares the name of the organization he founded to help inner city children. Gibson was given the role originally intended for the late 2Pac Shakur in the 2001 film Baby Boy; the movie was a critical success and performed fairly at the box office. Gibson subsequently appeared in the 2003 box office success 2 Fast 2 Furious (opposite Paul Walker, with whom he formed a close friendship during filming), as well as Flight of the Phoenix (2004), Four Brothers (2005) and Annapolis (2006), co-starring James Franco. Gibson was picked as one of People Magazine’s Sexiest Men of the Year in 2000.
Gibson has also established himself as a successful screenwriter, selling the pitches D.A. Verdict to MGM and Extortion to Universal Studios. In 2006, Gibson sold his first original spec script, To Each His Own, to Screen Gems. He is to star in and produce all of the films. Gibson has also created HQ Pictures, a television and film production company. He has hired Mike Le as VP of development & production to oversee and develop projects under the company’s banner.
Gibson prefers his music career to acting, but will focus on both areas. His third album is called Alter Ego, and featured both R&B and hip hop songs. He used an alias, “Black Ty”, for the rap tracks. Tyrese had a role in the Transformers movie, released July of 2007; the film’s director, Michael Bay, had Gibson in mind for the role before he was cast, and thus Gibson did not have to audition for the part.
Tyrese's fourth and latest album Open Invitation was released on November 1, 2011 in the US. It was preceeded by the single "Stay" which peaked on U.S. Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Songs at number 11. The second single "Too Easy" features Ludacris and was released soon after.
I'm Sorry
Tyrese Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How can I do this right, without you in my life.
Even though I say I love you I've gotta make a change in my life, baby,
I realize that you're better off without me by your side.
You're a special lady and I know I'm not ready for you, oh
I'm sorry for, what I've done.
I broke your heart, now we're apart.
I broke your heart, now I'm alone.
I'm by myself.
Tell me why, why I'm made my baby cry.
I know our love you would wipe,
Should I put you through all of these changes.
Nevermind all those I said cause I, didn't mean a thing.
I promised you, I only want you in my life, oh.
I'm sorry for(I'm so sorry babe), what I've done(everything I've done to you, oh).
I broke your heart, now we're apart (now we're apart and I can't deal with it).
I'm sorry for(oh, tell me anything), making you cry(I can do to get you back).
I broke your heart, now I'm alone.
I'm by myself.
Oh, it's hurts to move on,
cause you're all I knew,
But I must stay strong.
I can't break down no more.
sometimes I sit and dream of you and me again,
Oh, you have no idea, oh, of how hurt I am that I ran away.
(The one thing I said)
I'm sorry for, (meant the world to me, oh)what I've done.
I broke your heart(I'm so hurt that I did my baby wrong), now we're apart.
I'm sorry for(I'm so sorry now), making you cry(oh).
I broke your heart(how could I be), now I'm alone.
I'm sorry for, what I've done.
I broke your heart, now we're apart(for ever more).
I'm sorry for, making you cry(making my baby cry, oh).
I broke your heart, now I'm alone(I don't think I'm going anywhere baby).
