V1
Sorry dad, I really wish I knew
That when I grew up, I’d be so much like you
I know I wasted time not knowing where to begin
But now we’re going from strangers to the closest of friends
Sorry sis, I know that I should call
But of common interest we have
little at all
But I love you so much and of it more I should say
and soon we'll have a conversation that lasts all day
Chorus
I'm so sorry
I'm not the best I could be
I'm still trying
But what you get is what you see
V2
Sorry mom, I should listen more
Bu
t you pay attention least to the ones you care most for
I'll be good I swear, no more scares ok
I couldn't handle it if cancer took you away
Sorry love, I'm just a pain in the ass
I know sometimes I'm withdrawn, but the moments pass
I'm selfish and sad, b
ut then so are you
But in the end I'm so lucky to be stuck with you.
Chorus
I'm so sorry
I'm not what you want me to be
I'm still trying
But what you get is what you see
V3
Sorry God I didn't pray much today
//And there's no tithe cause I had rent to pay
In you, I still believe
-
but I feel lost sometimes
And to the answers I need it seems you turn a blind eye
Chorus
I'm so sorry
For not keeping the faith I need
But Lord I'm still trying
But what you get is what you see
I’m so sorry
I’m still working on
me
And I’ll keep trying
But what you get is what you see
