My deepest repentance


 
 
 

RIP to all of the people that I killed 

Hurt you with no intention 
I know the pain  lingers there still
I put the bullet filled with lies and ex lover files /old flames 
In the revolver 
In a gun that was already scolding hot 
And I pulled the trigger and robbed you out of your love 
You might've chosen to hide it 
But inside you still care 
I know that the wounds sometimes still feel tender 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
I failed to mention That I was still scorned 
From my past flames 
I'm sorry I couldn't burn the bridges sooner rather than later  
 when I did it was a little too late 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
That I failed to mention 
That I learned the hard way 
That while you're too busy 
Being mistreated by another 
The one you let go of or ignored could've treated you way better
You see me and you have a lot in common 
We both yearned and tossed and turned 
Thinking about the ones who hurt us 
But expect this time instead of his face popping up 
Mine will replace his
And tainted messages that showcased the false reality that I implanted in your mind that  filled your head up and pumped your ego up with lies 
 
At this moment I wasn't myself
I was that guy that stayed on Fruitwood 
That promised that he would take care of me 
Not degrade me and half ass ignore me 
Like I'm a baby and he was the unfit mother 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
That I failed to mention 
When you thought I really cared for you 
When I ripped your heart into a million tiny pieces 
because I was really using you to get over that guy over there 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
I still care about you 
Sounds kind of cliche 
I really want to tell you 
I never meant to hurt you 
But at this moment in time you probably don't care anyway 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
I failed to mention 
That everything and everybody can't be replaced 
I'm sorry 
I apologize 
That the only thing I can say is 
I'm sorry 
I apologize
