[Intro]
Yeah
Ow
[Verse 1]
How'd it ever get so wrong?
Crying in the stall of a washroom floor (Yeah)
You niggas don't know where I'm from
Don't know how I got here, but I'm all alone
And I've been wakin' up feeling as lonely as I was before, but
No, I cannot stick around for long
Tell my mom, 'cause I know she wants me home now (Home now)
[Chorus]
I'm just a shame
I'm just a waste (Uh-uh)
It's the way it is
'Cause my mama said
[Verse 2]
Swear you're never gonna see me fall
Take it how I get it then I ask for more
A different town is all I'm asking for
Pack up all my things and hurry out the door
I never asked to be driven away in a foreign car (Ow)
'Cause the bus will take me just as long
And now I gotta sleep with the lights still on now
[Bridge]
I know you're tired of me doing the same (Tired of me)
I know you're tired of me running away
I don't think you'll ever really see me the same (See me the same)
Life ain't so bad at all
Now I realize
[Chorus]
I'm just a shame (I'm just a shame)
I'm just a waste (I'm just a waste)
It's the way it is (It's the way it is)
'Cause my mama said ('Cause my mama said)
I'm just a shame (I'm just a shame)
I'm just a waste (I'm just a waste)
It's the way it is (It's the way it is)
'Cause my mama said ('Cause my mama said)
[Outro]
I'm just a shame
I'm just a waste (Uh-uh)
It's the way it is
'Cause my mama said
I'm just a shame
How'd it ever get so wrong? (Ha)
Crying in the stall of a washroom floor (I'm just a waste)
(It's the way it is)
You niggas don't know where I'm from ('Cause my mama said)
Don't know how I got here, but I'm all alone
I'm just a shame (How'd it ever get so wrong?)
I'm just a waste (Crying in the stall of a washroom floor)
It's the way it is
'Cause my mama said
I know you're tired of me doing the same
I know you're tired of me running away
