{Verse 1} Tell me did I ever cross your mind? Did you ever care about my life? My health, my well being? The seed you planted The son you abandoned Tell me was I ever worth a call? To see how I was after all? My mind, my mental state The life you granted The son you abandoned {Pre Chorus} I never wanted anything more But to be someone in your eyes To be the son you loved And not the one you‘d hide (Well I guess I’m not) {Chorus} How could you do this to your own blood? How could you have just given up? You never gave me a chance Never took a second glance When you walked away God I wish you would’ve stayed {Verse 2} Im not gonna lie but tell the truth You had me staying up late trying to prove That I was worth your time and energy
But I guess I wasn't worth a call to see How I was doing, or what was on my mind I was only a kid trying to find A way to get my fathers love and attention But all I came across was rejection and depression {Bridge} You coward How could you give up? You ba*tard Was It easier giving up? (Yeah?) {Pre Chorus} I never wanted anything more But to be someone in your eyes To be the son you loved And not the one you’d push aside {Chorus} How could you do this to your own blood? How could you have just given up? You never gave me a chance Never took a second glance When you walked away God I wish you would’ve stayed {Breakdown} Stay with me, oh god Just stay with me, oh god please Stay with me, oh god Just stay with me
