I wrote a song, a journal
Gave it to the world
Told the story
Of when i was just a girl
I sought understanding
Clarity in truth
By baring all the wounds
Inflicted on my youth
You criticized my choice
To stand up to my past
To give the pain a voice
So that it too could pass
But i felt brave
And filled with pride as i let go
Of bitterness that wouldn?t leave or let me grow
And i will spend a lifetime
Trying to understand
Why someone sharing my bloodline
Would not lend me their hand
Am i supposed to apologize?

Am i supposed to apologize?
I loved her more than myself
But she made me choose
Between her and my father
And so i refused
I fled her house and wrath
Eleven years of age
Followed the crooked path
That led me to a stage
The curtains opened up
My heart followed the lead
The music wouldn?t stop
And i could finally breathe
But i will spend a lifetime
Trying to understand
Why someone sharing my bloodline
Would not lend me their hand
Am i supposed to apologize?
Am i supposed to apologize?
