You Don't Want Me

Can you feel it in the air
Our love has fallen everywhere
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me
Can you feel it in my soul
It's getting dark
It's getting cold
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me anymore

Let me start by saying this
It took me very long
For me to come to this
Sitting reminiscing
Looking through old pictures
And noticed you were missing
'Cause you chose to walk away
Nothing I could do
To make you sit and wait
There was no time for debate
'Cause you were determined
In a hurry to a new place
To the arms of a woman
And she wasn't my mother
But instead a secret lover
Did you really truly love her?
Or were you infatuated
Either way you left me waiting
Everyday anticipating
The day when you returned
Everyday I felt the burn
Wishing you would turn
Around and be with me
Just a little boy crying
Wondering:
Where did I go wrong
Everyday I sat outside
Hurting deep inside
I need you by my side
But it was obvious that you didn't need me
And I cried every night
Wishing that it was a lie

Can you feel it in the air
Our love has fallen everywhere
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me
Can you feel it in my soul
It's getting dark
It's getting cold
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me anymore

I remember as a teen
Starting fights in the streets
Feeling rebellious
Never afraid of police
Cocking back the pistol
Homie, tell me what's the issue
'Cause it's nothing to come twist you
In other words
I missed you
I needed you to guide me
I needed you to find me
When times were cold and grimy
When demons tried to find me
But you never showed up
Watch my hatred blow up
Watch me drunk and throw up
Mentally tore up
'Cause I didn't have my father
I tried to pray to god
But that guy is also absent
As a kid
I said to myself:
When I grow I'll be a star
So now matter how far you are
You would see me shine bright
And perhaps that bright light
Would be for you the right guide
To be by my side
And that was me as a kid
But now I'm a man
And I accept the facts
That you found yourself a family
And you don't want me anymore

Can you feel it in the air
Our love has fallen everywhere
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me
Can you feel it in my soul
It's getting dark
It's getting cold
'Cause you don't want me
No, you don't want me anymore
