[Verse 1: Deuce Deuce]
I disrespected my mother, over the oven I hovered
Out of your house I hustled, made the cops come in
Out your backdoor I'm runnin' like you felt it comin'
All the time you told me, slow down
Can't ignore a mothers intuition
I graduated from school to prison
Promised I'd change soon as I get it
But it's like my feet couldn't move, I couldn't pivot
I couldn't shake the game, I was addicted
To the fast life livin', once again you tried to warn
'Til you was blue in the face, and your voice got sore
I was so immature, I chose to ignore
I thought you tryna scorn I was senseless
Young and desperate, thinkin' of myself, man I was selfish
Young and runnin' wild, didn't know any better
I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it
[Chorus: Deuce Deuce & Young Noble]
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
For all the times I ever disrespected
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
I ever lied, never showed you the truth
Brought drugs under your roof, sorry ma I apologize
For all the times I ever made you cry, sorry ma
Sorry ma, sorry ma, sorry ma
Sorry ma, sorry ma, sorry ma (Yeah)
[Verse 2: Young Noble]
I've seen too much in my younger days, my heart cold (Cold)
Tryna make thise house a happy home, don't wanna die alone (Die Alone)
Tryna raise my seeds right (Right) Tryna get these G's right (Right)
Retire young, smoke my kush from a peace pipe (C'mon)
Raised around domestic violence, mommy in a street fight (Street fight)
With her boyfriend, that was every other night (Every other night)
I was a baby still tried to defend her
I remember she got mad at me, told me to mind my business (damn)
Only eight years old, I know that wasn't love
She deserved than the bruises on her arm (On her arm)
I pray she moves on, god got something for her (Yeah)
Unconditional love, from her son and the lord (The lord)
Born a outlaw, so I ran them streets
I acted like I didn't hear you, when you called for me (When you called for me)
Still 'n' all you was the one that did it all for me (Did it all for me)
You did what you had to do, right or wrong, for me (Right or wrong for me)
That's why every other day, you get a call from me (Get a call from me)
I owe you my life, you can have it all from me (Have it all from me)
Listen, my mom duke, my jewel, my black rose (Rose)
My inspiration, the strongest woman I ever known (Known)
[Chorus: Deuce Deuce]
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
For all the times I ever disrespected
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
I ever lied, never showed you the truth
Brought drugs under your roof, sorry ma I apologize
For all the times I ever made you cry, sorry ma
Sorry ma, sorry ma
[Verse 3: Deuce Deuce]
Me and you was distant, but we was cut from the same stone
No explanation for the broken home
At each-others necks, why can't we all get along?
Couldn't take the fact, you doin' mama wrong
I watched you put her hands on her
I thought to myself, when I get older it's on
Now I realize you has problems of your own
I was barely grown, when you stepped
I think back to my first step, to that very last
Day you packed your bags and left mama on the couch
She wept, me and my brothers and my sister hugged her
Told that woman we love her, we don't need you mister
We don't need you mister...
[Chorus: Deuce Deuce]
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
For all the times I ever disrespected
Sorry ma, I apologize for the millionth time
I ever lied, never showed you the truth
Brought drugs under your roof, sorry ma I apologize
For all the times I ever made you cry, sorry ma
Sorry ma, sorry ma, sorry ma, sorry ma
