Story Behind The Song
'Sorry' is a song based on a true story. It was inspired by a situation involving a close friend of Shacara, who was unfaithful to a mate and as a result ended up being alone.
Song Description
'Sorry' is a song that brings to light unfortunate situations and acts of unfaithfulness that can ruin a good relationship. However, it does imply that such an act does not necessarily mean the heartbreaker does not genuinely love the heartbroken; but that relationships are not perfect. Neither are the two parties involved. This song makes people (or at least those in similar situation) think, and broaden their capacity to forgive the other person for any wrong-doings.

Lyrics
(oh oh oh oh oh oh)
remember when we used to ride
on the south side
head up high
(i was so proud to be)
your girl, you were my man
we were in love
(you really loved me baby)
i know i can't take back what i did
(why did i have to cheat)
i wish we could do it once aqain
(please)
chorus
i was your only lady
you really loved me baby
i know i messed up
boy i messed up and i'm sorry
you had my back for so long
for everything i'm so wrong
oh no i messed up
boy i messed up
and i'm sorry
verse 2
remember when we used to kiss
then we'd stop
and do it once more
(i couldn't get enough )
my friends weren't my friends
anymore
(they were so jealous)
i can't believe
i let you go away
(away)
i wish we could
do it once again
(please stay)
chorus
i was your only lady
you really loved me baby
i know i messed up
boy i messed up and i'm sorry
you had my back for so long
for everything i'm so wrong
oh no i messed up
boy i messed up
and i'm sorry
bridge
i am so wrong
i realize
i know that if the tables were turned
i probably wouldn't forgive you
oh baby
but i'm cryin
cuz my lyin cost me you
but i'm sorry
