I'm Sorry

I'm sorry that I couldn't live up to your expectations
That you had for me but momma you have got to face it
Me and him are not the same
I know we blood but we don't relate
And neither one of us are gonna change
You always seeing one side of things but never the other
My whole life has been in the shadows of my older brother
And I was only 10 when he left the house and you stopped being a mother
I had to grow up on my own
I never had no one to run to
So I
Started smoking tryna drown the pain
Doing whatever I could to change
The way you look at me
Cause when you look at me all you see is disappointment
All you'll ever be is disappointed
I guess that what my point is

I'm sorry that I let you go (Yeah)
I'm sorry that I care (I'm so sorry momma)
I'm sorry that the feeling shows
That I just wasn't there (Not at all, not at all, no)
And I know that what a fool I was
I cut you off and fucked it up again
I'm sorry that I let you go
I'm sorry that I care

Now dad tell me where to start
Never thought we'd be the ones to fall apart
But you were gone in an instant
I sat up all the time as a kid wondering what I could do different
At every game I'd look in the stands
Hoping that I'd see you lookin down
Cause all I ever wanted was to make you proud
But would you look at me now
Are you proud of the man you see
I've got a son and a wife that I will never leave
Cause when I look into their eyes I see
Everything that I wanna be
Im a role model
His best friend
Everything you should've been to me
And I'm sorry (I'm so sorry)
But I gotta get this off my chest
And I know it's all for the best
Just know I wish you all the best
And I'm

I'm sorry that I let you go (Yeah)
I'm sorry that I care (I'm so sorry daddy)
I'm sorry that the feeling shows
That I just wasn't there (Not at all, not at all, no)
And I know that what a fool I was
I cut you off and fucked it up again
I'm sorry that I let you go
I'm sorry that I care
