Lyrics for Song: Apologize
Lyrics for Album: Dance with my father
Your loveÂ’s never been better
So good itÂ’s a sin
But itÂ’s time for a decision
Is it me or him?
Before you make your mind up, hear me
I just want you to see things clearly
This should be about love, not money
DonÂ’t let him try to take you from me
I donÂ’t wanna have to apologize
I donÂ’t wanna feel IÂ’ve been penalized
Just ‘cause I can drive in a better car
Live in a bigger house just like a superstar
He says that I can only give you
Material things, but thatÂ’s not true
You see my heart is rich with love for you
DonÂ’t let him make you doubt my love for you
Yeah, baby
I work hard for my money
No one gave it to me
But some fools think the deeper the pocket
The smaller the heart will be, not true
IÂ’m only tryinÂ’ to share me with you
Look at all the lovinÂ’ we do
Find the meaning in the words IÂ’m sayinÂ’
IÂ’m not just another player playinÂ’
I donÂ’t wanna have to apologize (or give a damn)
And I donÂ’t appreciate being criticized (for who I am)
Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things
Or take you anyplace
ThatÂ’s just what money brings
He wants you to believe that IÂ’m tryinÂ’ to buy your love
‘Cause that’s what he would do
He thinks since heÂ’s a man with nothing
That heÂ’s got better love for you
No way
Tell him now, let him go
Or I can no longer be yours
Tell him how you feel about me
I canÂ’t keep standing on the side
DonÂ’t let him fill your mind with lies about me
Leave him with his fallacies
I donÂ’t care what bull he believes
Tell him that enough is enough
Just donÂ’t return a disbeliever
YouÂ’ve always been a willing receiver of my love
I donÂ’t think I have to apologize (I work for this)
I donÂ’t wanna feel like IÂ’m penalized (for being rich)
DoesnÂ’t bother me where he thinks I stand
IÂ’m beinÂ’ my true self
Just doinÂ’ what I can
He thinks I won you with materiality
But honey, you know thatÂ’s not so
And even if he understood me
ItÂ’s simply time for him to go---so let him go!
I donÂ’t wanna change you
‘cause I’m in love with who you are
So I donÂ’t wanna apologize for beinÂ’ a superstar
HavenÂ’t I proved that IÂ’m here for you?
What am I guilty of?
What did or didnÂ’t I do?
Maybe I canÂ’t be myself with somebody
Who believes such things are true
IÂ’m losing self-respect from trying
IÂ’m losing my desire too---I canÂ’t do it
I donÂ’t wanna have to apologize (or give a damn)
I donÂ’t wanna feel IÂ’ve been penalized (for who I am)
Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things
Or take you anyplace
ThatÂ’s just what money brings
He wants you to believe that IÂ’m tryinÂ’ to buy your love
‘Cause that’s what he would do
