Verse 1
I apologize for calling you beautiful/ I didn't know what it would do to you/ See I had spoke as a friend, just thought I would mention/ But God knows I had no evil intentions/ Causing it's breaking my heart/ To know that I helped spark something inside you that I know ain't of God/ I feel like a fool/ Cause while you thinking it's cool, I failed miserably to be God's tool/ See I heard you got a career in modeling/ Jobs come easy, now your beauty got you all on TV/ And though I was happy at first you found some work/ I heard you half naked wearing bikinis/ Say it ain't so/ I'm on my knees begging God/ He help you see that it is more then just a job/ But since you inspired to show your skin/ I know I gave you more then just a compliment/ And truly I apologize
Hook:
I wouldna said what I said If I knew it would have went straight to you head/ So truly I apologize/ I wouldn't have let my thoughts be known If I knew it could have kept you cloths on/ So truly I apologize/ See beauty is skin deep/ It's more than just the beauty we could see/ So truly I apologize
Verse 2
Young, smart, and intelligent/ But struggling with one element/ That is self esteem, dying to feel like a queen, she let the world tell her what is relevant/ More lost than she's has ever been/ Because attention is a rush/ She likes being a object men lust/ It's making her head bust/ And that is something I couldn't say in the past/ Cause humility was a quality she had/ I wish I could go back in time/ I would tell her stay humble because beauty becomes a curse with a vain mind/ And dress modest at the same time/ Cause tempting others is sin regardless if they should watch their eyes/ You got to realize you held accountable/ Not just for you, but what you cause to/ But if you still aren't convinced that what you doing isn't sin/ What's the meaning of a stumbling block then/ But truly I apologize
Hook
Verse 3
From one job right to the next/ She just signs right by the X/ She went from a portrait of class in a respectable dress/ To a thong with her hands over her breast/ A fishhook to the flesh/ But she doesn't see the time of day/ She poses for a magazine in lingerie/ And think that because it's drawls It's not offensive to God/ But the Lord is now phased by what it's called/ It's still revealing all/ Oh what I would give If she just could see her sin for what it is/ And oh how she could live If she open up her heart threw her ears/ And listen to God speak/ Cause to know that you could hear him so sweet/ But, that's why I'm touched so deep/ Cause I feel like God's messenger was me/ And truly I apologize
