Everything That Isnt Me
Lukas Graham
[Intro] / [Verse 1] I could have been a better brother I could have been a better son I’m sorry for the pain I caused you And all the worries that I gave you mom [Verse 2] Every time there was a riot I couldn’t ever stay at home I had to run and join the fire You and dad said no but I had to go [Pre Chorus] Dbadd9 You were still the best of mothers Ebadd9 And now I know the fear you felt for me You told me to stay off the streets ’cause You didn’t like me out there selling weed [Chorus] Dbadd9 I don’t regret the things I’ve done Ebadd9 They made me what I am you see I can’t apologize forever For everything that isn’t me [Verse 3] I could have been a better brother I could have been a better friend I hope you know how much I love you And if you don’t I really understand [Verse 4] I used to be so bloody selfish I tried to make it to the top you see The only thing I didn’t get is You’ve always given me the help I need [Pre Chorus] Dbadd9 I should have been a better brother Ebadd9 It’s easy now to see it clear I’m sorry that I hurt you all and I’m sorry that I caused you all so many tears [Chorus] Dbadd9 I could apologize forever Ebadd9 For everything I couldn’t be I can’t apologize forever For everything that isn’t me [Verse 5] I could have been a better lover I could have been a better man I’m sorry that I work so much and The fact that I never really have a plan [Verse 6] I’m sorry oh I’m so sorry That it’s so hard to say this word And even with all the things we’ve been through Sometimes I think that I will never learn [Pre Chorus] Dbadd9 I could have been a better lover Ebadd9 I could have been a better man I’m gonna be a better father Hell I’m doing everything I can [Chorus] Dbadd9 And I will live with this forever Ebadd9 With everything I couldn’t be I can’t apologize forever For everything that isn’t me [Outro] I could have been a better brother I could have been a better son I could have been a better lover But in the end I’m your only one
