Many Apologies Lyrics

Many Apologies
(Many apologies)
That was then, this is now
Embrace the dichotomy
(embrace the dichotomy)
This is not a song
This is a poem
I gotta get it outta me
(I gotta get it outta me)
Never gave you my all
Though I gave you a lot of me:
Many apologies
[Pre-Verse 1]
Getting rid of all my demons took more than an exorcism
Exercise or exorcise
That’s therapist or exorcist?
Under duress
It’ll test your pride
Be stressed, depressed and gettin sick
There is nothing you can do to stop thе clock
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick
(yeah)

[Verse 1]
You have to face your dеmons
No you cannot shy away/
Don’t you dare turn your eyes away/
You’re going to have to fight today/
Get off your knees
Don’t beg, don’t plead
You have no time to cry or pray/
You cannot throw yo life away
No, that’s one hell of a price to pay
(pay, pay, pay, pay)
May all your tears be wiped away/
Gotta embrace life
Be strong
Hold on so tight you’’ll have to be pried away/
You’ll find the strength if you dig deep down inside
That’s why you’re alive today/
You’ll find a way/
You always have/
Survive the day
(day, day)
Yeah
[Bridge 1]
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days
Seconds…
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick[Chorus]
Even a clock that’s been dead ten years plus can be right twice a day/
Hey!
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days
I’m the King of my own thoughts
Gotta Get Well Soon so I Isolate/
Hey!
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds tick, tick, tick, tick
(yeah)Many Apologies
(Many apologies)
That was then, this is now
Embrace the dichotomy
(embrace the dichotomy)
This is not a song
This is a poem
I gotta get it outta me
(I gotta get it outta me)
Never gave you my all
Though I gave you a lot of me:
Many apologies
[Pre-Verse 2]
Sleepwalkers who claim to be woke misspoke
They slumber twice a day/
I am an insomniac with no sleep number so I’m wide awake/
I wanted love
We were united but they only provided hate/
Which left us in a divided state/
I tried and tried but that’s my mistake[Verse 2]
Look at their wrinkled faces full of laugh lines they try to hide in their images/
You gonna be 0-80 growing old and crazy choosing time as a nemesis/
Like a diamond that’s shining and glistening
Tried to drop a gem but they wasn’t listening/
That’s just what happens due to factors such as the passage of time and conditioning/
Then something tragic happens that can shatter your faith and fracture your innocence/
They don’t understand what remorse or forgiveness is so they get none of their benefits/
The hierarchy of human needs has six keys but they don’t mention it/
They say it takes a village but they only visit with intentions to pillage it/
(Yeah)[Bridge 2]
That’s heresy from a heretic/
You can blame that on our heritage/
We were born with an inherent risk/
Unwarranted
Unmerited/
That fact don’t fit their narrative/
They say that revenge is best served cold behold we have prepared a dish[Chorus]
Even a clock that’s been dead ten years plus can be right twice a day/
Hey!
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds, minutes, hours, days
I’m the King of my own thoughts
Gotta Get Well Soon so I Isolate/
Hey!
Seconds, minutes, hours, days/
Seconds tick, tick, tick, tick
(yeah)Many Apologies
(Many apologies)
That was then, this is now
Embrace the dichotomy
(embrace the dichotomy)
This is not a song
This is a poem
I gotta get it outta me
(I gotta get it outta me)
Never gave you my all
Though I gave you a lot of me:
Many apologies
