This is why I am the way that I am |
|
This is why I am the way that I am |
|
This is why I am the way that I am |
|
This is why I am the way that I am |
|
You know I'm carrying with me |
|
Over twenty years of pity |
|
My whole personality |
|
Was formed by others, not me |
|
When I look back on my life |
|
One that's always filled with strife |
|
I rode down a bad course |
|
Nobody's fault but yours |
|
My step always threw me right down the stairs |
|
So forgive me when I do the same thing to you |
|
I know it must seem like your daddy never cares |
|
But if you knew what I've been through |
|
You'd do the same thing too |
|
Well I can't make a move |
|
Without draggin' all my baggage |
|
My father always cussed |
|
So forgive me for my language |
|
Please excuse me for yelling |
|
Pardon me for telling you to stop |
|
Selling to me your God in Heaven |
|
This is why I am the way that I am |
|
This is why I am the way that I am |
|
If I can keep this up for the rest of my days |
|
I may never have to take responsibility |
|
For my ways |
