[Intro]
I'm not really used to this shit, but um
I'ma just do it
I hope my mama would like this song
[Verse 1]
Man, how you doin'? I'm good
Don't ask about me, I'm good
I’ve cleared all those distant memories
All that’s left is your surname
Should I light a cigarette and try to shake it off?
This long, long reality
Even in the tough moments of life
Your face is on mine
[Verse 2]
So I have no idea what’s right and what’s wrong
I just can't figure it out
The only daughter who matured early
The support of a mother who’s like a girl
The homeroom teacher next door
Who else was there, like Grandpa?
Who was there in my childhood that wasn’t warm?
Man, I don’t blame you
You must have had your reasons
I don’t blame you
You must have had unavoidable adult reasons
I don’t blame you
Yes, I don’t blame you
Then you don’t have to blame me
To me, you’re just an unknown guy, huh
[Pre-Chorus]
Papa, where you goin'?
I don’t feel much love
Mama, why you cryin'?
Damn, I really don’t know
[Chorus]
Left my mommy all for you
I didn’t even get to choose
I’m just staring blankly
At the pieces that have fallen apart
Left my mommy all for you
I didn’t even get to choose
I’m just staring blankly
At the pieces that have fallen apart
[Verse 3]
Back to 2011
Three women at home
The only man was Grandpa
During his funeral
A visit from an unfamiliar man
Instead of being called "Dad"
I hid behind Mom’s legs and asked
Do I need to go with him?
What should I do, I don’t want to go with him anywhere
To break the awkward silence, you bought junk food
That you usually never bought
After one bite
Young me asked if I could have one more
With a lonely smile, you said of course
If I’d known it was the last time, I would have told you
You didn’t have to go through all this
[Pre-Chorus]
Papa, where you goin'?
I don’t feel much love
Mama, why you cryin'?
Damn, I really don’t know, shit
[Chorus]
Left my mommy all for you
I didn’t even get to choose
I’m just staring blankly
At the pieces that have fallen apart
Left my mommy all for you
I didn’t even get to choose
I’m just staring blankly
At the pieces that have fallen apart
[Outro]
Left my mommy all for you
I didn’t even get to choose
I’m just staring blankly
At the pieces that have fallen apart
Bye, bye
