sorry
UMI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(One, two, three, four)

Did we already start?
Did we get to the part where I sink or swim?
Can we go back to the start?
Back to the place where they said begin

I wanna go slower, slower
Wanna start over, over
I wanna go home, but home's just so out of reach
Not even in my gravity

How sad for me
(Fuck it)

I should be grateful knowin' my past
Why am I in school puttin' work in for a pass?
I wanna be a stoner with my own pad
I wanna be cool with my motherfuckin' dad

Is that too much to ask for?
Shit my bad
My mama worked hard, nearly broke her back
And I got doubts from the shit in the past
I wanna give her more than a nigga ever had

I'm sorry
For talkin' down too much
Sorry
I never trust my gut
I'm sorry
I'm always runnin' my mouth too much
I'm sorry
I will start
Lovin' myself enough, yeah

I think I'll roll myself another
Earned it, yeah, I know (I know)
Wanna see the world in colorS
So I could feel warm in the cold

And maybe I
Maybe I
Maybe I
As a lady I
Know that I
Feel divine

I wanna be happy with my own path
I wanna be good to the friends that I have
And when I get a home, I'ma pay it in cash
I wanna get the twins anythin' that they asked

I wanna go to Tokyo, London, France
And I'ma have a chauffeur wherever I land
I wanna get drunk on the beach in the sand
I'm gonna get a Grammy with my motherfuckin' friends

I'm sorry
For talkin' down too much
Sorry
I never trust my gut
I'm sorry
I'm always runnin' my mouth too much
I'm sorry
I will start lovin' myself enough, yeah

Sorry
For talkin' down too much
Sorry
I never trust my gut
I'm sorry
I'm always doubtin' myself too much
I'm sorry
I will start
Lovin' myself enough, yeah

Overall Meaning

The song "Sorry" by UMI is a powerful exploration of self-doubt and the desire for self-improvement. In the opening verse, UMI wonders if it's too late to start over and go back to the beginning. She longs to slow down and take things at a gentler pace, but she feels that she's too far from home and too weighed down by the past to do so. The line "Not even in my gravity" highlights the feeling of being adrift and disconnected from her true self.


The second verse delves deeper into UMI's struggles, particularly with her education and family life. She feels guilty for wanting to be a "stoner" and have her own place, even though her mother worked hard to provide for her. UMI battles with self-doubt and insecurity, but she also has big dreams of achieving success and providing for those she loves.


The chorus is a powerful apology to herself, acknowledging the ways in which she's held herself back and been too hard on herself. UMI apologizes for "talkin' down too much" and "always runnin' [her] mouth too much," recognizing that these negative self-talk patterns have held her back. The repetition of "I'm sorry" underscores the weight of these apologies and the importance of self-forgiveness.

Prayer to
be
Saved:
God will always love you, and anyone who is reading
this! And if you would like to start to know God, but don't
know what to say, just say this with your
mind or mouth lol:
"God, thank you for this life and a
heart beat. Please save me, I know You Love me! Thank
You for loving me so
much that you would die in my place of suffering on the
cross not only to let me know I am not alone, but that
you loved me
that much to die, be beaten spat on, mocked, lied on,
and everything. Thank you for saving me. Healing me
and being with me in my pain/trouble, I am saved! I want
to continue to get to know you more. Let me see you
more in everything and have your Holy Spirit send peace
to me, and give me understanding. Thank You, in Jesus
Name. amen."
