Blame On Me

歌詞

Blame on me Can't hold back Holdin' on for many Oh, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh We grew up in the same household, for years, we were close Throwing football in the yard 'til the lights turned on inside the lampposts Years go by Somethin' changed when you got to junior high Started hanging with them guys Suddenly I meant nothin' to you, you wanted nothin' to do with me You run with a crew that doesn't include any room for your little brother I was destroyed, but I still loved you I still wanted your approval, if I could get it, I'd cherish it Embarrassing me any chance you got, but I didn't care Because maybe if I was tough enough and take it, you would love me Instead of lookin' at me like I'm disgusting Like I'm nothing, like I'm not the person that you grew up with I wanna reminisce and ask you if you miss those days, but I'm terrified of broaching the subject I'm terrified to hear your answer, so I just don't touch it I don't say nothing They say, "Run" They say, "Different phases" Oh, no way, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh We grew up in the same household, for years, we were close One on one, I would dominate you in the post Years pass, but the bond didn't last And I hate the man above the sink lookin' above me in the glass Treated you like I hated you, never needed you Even if I had the same opinion, disagreed with you Insult after insult, hoping they'd eat at you Pokin' at your deepest wounds My baby brother, I don't have an excuse But I know you remember the way that dad would let loose on me more often and way less you He criticized and tested me so I'd test you I got so much wrongdoing to confess to And you act like it never happened, God bless you Huh, I'm terrified of broaching the subject I'm terrified to even ask, so I just don't touch it I don't say nothing They say, "Run" They say, "Different phases" Oh, no way, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh You grew up in my household, under my roof Raised you with discipline and taught you life's truths Lashed out at you for things you'd misplace Reprimanding you in public 'til you're red in the face Made you feel the weight of every single mistake that you made My hot temper turned up full throttle 'Cause I needed you to be your little brother's role model Everything that you do, he just gon' follow Don't you understand? It's okay, I understand 'Cause the way I parent you is how my mother did And the way you treat your little brother's how my older brother did And now I'm not even my brother's friend There's so much I would do and say if I could have it done again But I'm terrified of broaching the subject I'm terrified to break down, so I just don't touch it I don't say nothing They say, "Run" They say, "Different phases" Oh, no way, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh Put the blame on me Put the blame on me, oh
