[Intro]
Forgive them
Forgive those
Who are the people in the struggle

[Verse 1]
I'm so sorry again
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry for those who never make it to see
Could you open up your eyes and see
How things are evolving
I'm so sorry
Could you understand that I'm trying to be
Most of them friend, but they are problems
I'm so sorry
Or they never seem to understand which way them going
But the road is so long
I'm so sorry
Trying to hang on in this world
That's why I'm sitting here writing these songs

[Hook]
The world is getting strange (writing these songs)
The world is getting strange (so strange)
The world is getting strange (so strange)
The world is getting strange (so strange)
I'm so sorry

[Verse 2]
I put my hands together and say a prayer
For the kids in Africa who don't have no food to eat
All the kids in Mexico
Who drink messy water 'pon street
I'm so sorry
Have you ever been to Germany or Russia
And go see poverty of poverty?
I'm so sorry
Most of the people in the Middle East don't know meat
I'm so sorry

[Hook 2]
The world is getting strange (so strange)
The world is getting strange (so strange)
The world is getting strange (so strange)
And the people, them down for a change

[Verse 3]
Uplift yourself and know
Look forward as you go
No matter when they water erupt
Make sure they start to grow
Got to tell the whole we are so
Anything that you're with, we go slow
The heart is bouncing like so
This tree in Brooklyn grows

I'm so sorry
