Don't Blame Me - Donell Jones
This a message
There comes a time in a mans life
When we gotta let go
Of them little boy habits
And become a man
Listen to me
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be what
I thought was a man
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be what
I thought was a man
Was a man
Cared about all the things you did for me
Was a man
And put the business before my family
Was a man
No good examples
I learned from the streets
Was a man
Cause I really thought
I was being a man
Think of the time in a mans life
When we gotta wake up
And see things different
I'm not the past
Cause its dead and gone
I just start over now
Cause I ain't been living
When I give my love to you
If youll see youll stick around
But you're first in my life true baby
I've been acting a fool
Let me confess my sins to you
I wanna make this thing right
Baby don't
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be
What I thought was a man
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be
What I thought was a man
Was a man
Cared about all the things you did for me
Was a man
And put the business before my family
Was a man
No good examples I learned from the streets
Was a man
Cause I really thought I was being a man
Didnt take the lead
Cause depression called out
Doing dirt with homies I ain't proud
Cause I realized how much
You mean to my life
When I opened up my eyes
Don't focus on the past be open to new
This moment we can break through
Should I love you baby
And I wanna hear you say
We forgive me
And we gonna be together always
Don't balme me
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be
What I thought was a man
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be what
I thought was a man
Was a man
Cared about all the things you did for me
Was a man
And put the business before my family
Was a man
No good examples
I learned from the streets
Cause I really thought I was being a man
I thought I was being a man
But I wasnt out playing in the streets
Do you hear me yeah
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be what
I thought was a man
Don't blame for the things
That I did when I was younger
I was only trying to be
What I thought was a man
Was a man
Cared about all the things you did for me
Was a man
And put the business before my family
Was a man
No good examples I learned from the streets
Was a man
Cause I really thought
I was being a man
