Never Apologize

[Verse 1]
You played cute
Then you played cruel
Turned our trust
To a twisted tool
You gaslit
Called it a joke
Watched me drown
Then handed smoke
You crossed lines
Then called me loud
Tried to shame me
In front of a crowd
But I see through
All that disguise
You made the mess
Now feel my rise (yeah)
[Chorus]
I will never apologize
For how I snapped back on you
You lit the match, I burned the ties
All this fire came from you
You don’t get to call me crazy
When you built this jealousy
I will never apologize
For the way you treated me
[Verse 2]
You loved power
You loved control
You loved picking
At my soul
Little jabs
Every day
Then act shocked
When I don’t play
You want calm
After the storm
But you wrote
The thunder form
You made rage
My mother tongue
Now you mad
At what I’ve sung (ha)
[Chorus]
I will never apologize
For how I snapped back on you
You lit the match, I burned the ties
All this fire came from you
You don’t get to call me crazy
When you built this jealousy
I will never apologize
For the way you treated me
[Bridge]
You want grace
I gave you plenty
You want peace
You broke it empty
You want soft
But built me hard
Now my heart
Is your discard
So keep your silence
Keep your plea
You wrote this version
Of me (yeah)
[Chorus]
I will never apologize
For how I snapped back on you
You lit the match, I burned the ties
All this fire came from you
You don’t get to call me crazy
When you built this jealousy
I will never apologize
For the way you treated me

rap, Gritty boom-bap hip hop with female vocals; swung drums, detuned piano loop, and dark sampled choir stabs. Verses stay tight and punchy with stacked doubles on key punchlines; hook widens with distorted bass and chant-like backing vocals. Final chorus rides with extra ad-libs and drops in the drums for emphasis on the last bar., hip hop
