Pretty Brown I'm sorry Pretty Brown I didn't know Brought up in a white world Where you weren't as free to go Pretty Brown I'm sorry Pretty Brown I didn't see Privileged in a white world Where you weren't able to be Pretty Brown Forgive Me Pretty Brown I came to hate The colour of my skin For some, sorry's come too late Pretty Brown forgive them Pretty Brown it wasn't you But greedy, white-washed tombs With a dead bones point of view I accept your apology, now that you do know We can co-exist in this world together and being together in that world We can achieve that freedom that you had, that I now have and feel And express. You can help me with that freedom I accept your apology, and I'm now glad that you do see And it is not your fault that you were privileged, nor was it mine It is not your fault. And I forgive you, and I accept your love For the same way you accept the colour of my skin and the differences you see in me I accept your sorry, I accept the colour of your skin, I accept your love I forgive all of you, for I know it was only some of you and not all of you And I know those many could not help the greed with which they fed on With which they thrived on, with which they subsisted on I know it was not your fault Now we can live together Now we can love together Now we can forgive together
