Sorry, is the opening track of Mohbad’s 2020 Light EP, and it is a deeply personal, sober reflection on his difficult upbringing and early life choices. Over a soft, glissando of guitar and African percussion, he apologizes to his father for abandoning polytechnic education to pursue music, despite his father’s sacrifices. He narrates his family’s poverty, an uncaring stepmother, and his own ventures into unworldly lifestyles before music offered a path forward. The song conveys a sense of weariness and uncertainty about his future path.

"Sorry"
This kind life e tire me
Daddy no get salary
Ten years I no see money
Step mother no care
Landlord e dey worry
My brothers are hungry
Daddy gather money make I go poly
I go poly but I no go class daddy I am sorry
I don dey do Yahoo
I don dey chop banku
Omo pastor ni woti aye
Mummy just dey pray
Daddy just dey pray for me
Make e better for me
Me I no go school
Only thing I fit do
Music me I choose
This kind life e tire me
Eshi biri biri ke bo mi o
Iwaju loloko yi wamilo eyi laleko iwonilo yo yo yo
Eshi biri biri ke bo mi o
Iwaju loloko yi wamilo eyi laleko iwonilo yo yo yo
V-v-veh-veh...
(Itz beatz to the boss)
