I Make No Apologies

I make no apologies for who I am EITHER SHOULD YOU From the tip of this curly dark brown hair Down to the shoes I wear As the dragon raps around my arm For my ancestors 400 plus years of this I will not accept nor have my hopes up for anymore broke promises from anyone I make no apologies for the heart broken neighborhood that made the man today I accept no apologies from the people that said I wouldn’t make it I make no apologies for the same reason that I was one of the few men to make it out of these hoods That has force me to hold my head high and for my chest to poke out I make no apologies that I was born into a poor family I make no apologies for having a few of the strongest black women in my life behind me That has told me to hold fast to what I want in life I make no apologies to the people that said to me that I am a geek But look at me now I strongly make no apologies for having more ambitions then the next guy Going after three majors instead of one I will not accept any apologies from anybody that blames there unsuccessful life on a person Because I didn’t have my father but I know how to be a man I most defiantly will not accept any apologies from men calling females b**** and hoes because they don’t know their names Learn them Women you aren’t safe either I will not accept for any reason why you can’t carry yourself as a woman. And let men degrade you like cattle I will not make any apologies for these things because I am a man And because of that I carry myself as such I have found out that men don’t make apologies for who they are They only accept it and move on This is why I will not and cannot make no apologies for the man I am So why are you!!!!
