I Make No Apologies

I make no apologies for who I am

EITHER SHOULD YOU

From the tip of this curly dark brown hair

Down to the shoes I wear

As the dragon raps around my arm

For my ancestors 400 plus years of this

I will not accept nor have my hopes up for anymore broke promises from anyone

I make no apologies for the heart broken neighborhood that made the man today

I accept no apologies from the people that said I wouldn’t make it

I make no apologies for the same reason that I was one of the few men to make it out of these hoods

That has force me to hold my head high and for my chest to poke out

I make no apologies that I was born into a poor family

I make no apologies for having a few of the strongest black women in my life behind me

That has told me to hold fast to what I want in life

I make no apologies to the people that said to me that I am a geek

But look at me now

I strongly make no apologies for having more ambitions then the next guy

Going after three majors instead of one

I will not accept any apologies from anybody that blames there unsuccessful life on a person

Because I didn’t have my father but I know how to be a man

I most defiantly will not accept any apologies from men calling females bitches and hoes because they don’t know their names

Learn them

Women you aren’t safe either

I will not accept for any reason why you can’t carry yourself as a woman.

And let men degrade you like cattle

I will not make any apologies for these things because I am a man

And because of that I carry myself as such

I have found out that men don’t make apologies for who they are

They only accept it and move on

This is why I will not and cannot make no apologies for the man I am

So why are you!!!!
