**[Verse 1 – 16 Bars]**
I came from a block where the weak don’t eat
Where you either move weight or get moved off your feet
Mama worked nights, I was raised by the street
Learned quick life ain’t sweet, it’s concrete
They said I’d fail, said I talk too loud
Too militant, too real, too proud
But I ain’t never bowed to a man with a title
Seen too many sell they soul for survival
I done made mistakes, yeah, I sinned heavy
But the same ones judging couldn’t walk if it got deadly
Lost homies to bullets and the system cage
Got rage in my veins like I’m trapped in a stage
They want me silent, smiling, tame
But I spit truth, let it burn like flame
If my grind make you uncomfortable, good
I ain’t apologize for escaping the hood

---

**[Chorus – 8 Bars – Male R&B Hook]**
(Ohhh…)
Sorry, not sorry for the man I am
Had to fight my way up, had to take that stand
If I stepped on toes on the way to the throne
I was hungry, had to get it on my own
No regrets, no shame in my story
All this pain turned into glory
You can love me or ignore me
But I’m sorry… not sorry

---

**[Verse 2 – 16 Bars]**
They said I changed ‘cause I leveled up quick
But they wasn’t there when I was down in the shit
Cold nights, no heat in the crib
Sharing one meal between three little kids
Now they see me shine, wanna rewrite history
Like they held me down when it was misery
Where was you when the rent was due?
When the fridge was bare and the sky ain’t blue?
I ain’t bitter, just aware of the fake
Smile in your face while they wait for you to break
So I keep my circle small, real tight
Day ones only, ready to ride or fight
And if my confidence offend your pride
That’s insecurity you tryin’ to hide
I earned every scar, every stripe
Sorry if my survival instincts hype

---

**[Verse 3 – 16 Bars]**
I ain’t sorry for protectin’ my peace
Cut toxic ties, let the fake love cease
I ain’t sorry for speakin’ my mind
When the truth get raw and it cut like a line
They glorify struggle but hate when you win
Love you as a victim, not a king with a grin
I refuse to shrink just to make you tall
If I dim my light, then we both gon’ fall
I done cried real tears in the dark alone
Now I build empires off a cracked iPhone
Turned trauma into hustle and drive
They surprised I’m still alive
Yeah I’m flawed, but I’m authentic
Every scar got a story embedded
If success make enemies worry
Tell ‘em straight up — sorry, not sorry

---

**[Outro – 6 Bars]**
Yeah…
No apologies for survival
No remorse for breakin’ cycles
From the ashes I built my story
Through the pain, through the worry
If my rise make you sorry
Just remember — I’m not sorry.
