I Apologize

It wasn’t long b4 I noticed that LOOK A few days clean was all it TOOK More time passed, got to shakin then SHOOK And reality hit like a cold left HOOK I gave you my love and moral SUPPORT Congratulated you on good effort put FORTH Gave all of me, my love, my WEALTH But it wasn’t enuff 2 make you love YO’SELF Powerless we are, please RECOGNIZE I wish I could help you, I APOLOGIZE I watched you all night rubbed yo back when it HURT But nursing you thru it only made it WORSE Now it’s time to cut the CORD U gotta fight yo own battles, borrow my SWORD I cain’t fight for you, although I AGONIZE I did it before, I APOLOGIZE You say you love me, I believe that’s TRUE But I cain’t give you a boost without going down TOO I gotta stay up, but I will keep PRAYIN Pray you’ll come around, stop sliding and PLAYIN Time’s runnin out, there’s not much LEFT Gather yo strength play the cards you were DEALT I wish I could help you, been down this road BEFORE I did all I could, now I cain’t do no MORE I APOLOGIZE Written & copyrighted by Tone Jaxson
