Sorry
Please dont say sorry
Presuming a respect for what you say
If in your heart you mean it
Then youll understand me feeling
You must prove it; sign the cheque without delay
Most humbly yours, four hundred years back pay
(chorus)
Im not begging charity
Dont confuse the things I say
Give me what belongs to me
Give me what belongs to me
Just dont say sorry
As if that can excuse this tyranny
No value in your talking
Money speaks and bullshits walking
Round in circles re-inventing history
Trying to erase our memory
(chorus)
I'm not begging .....etc
If you say sorry
Can I assume youve realised the shame
The seeds of your oppression
Fall and ripen with aggression
You cant hold us any longer with your chains
Time to compensate us for our claims
Dont bother wi no sorry
Dont bother wi delay
A four hundred years
Is not just the other day
Im not begging charity
Dont confuse up your mind
Payment overdue
Fe a long long time
You come a we gate
No bother hesitate
You tek away we tings
Like a damn pirate
