It's a funny feeling, while growing fathers day had no meaning

Then one day, you wake up staring in the face of children

Offering gifts in honor of your celebration

And what you present isn't quite the reaction

They were expecting apologies or an order

After your girl is done with her lecture, and you start to look deeper

Have you been keeping your promise to be better than what was introduced to you

Growing pains have a way of leaving stains on the soul

Certain things have a way of gripping hold, long after you've let go

There's a difference between growth and just growing old

Age is merely a measurement of time, while the other allows you to recognize the sign

I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean, wait, hold on, come on

My fault, my apologies, wait, one more time

I said I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean to make you wait, hold on, one more time

Some of us never found time to be happy, too busy being strong

Friends turn an enemy, surface in their jealousy, so you never truly belong

Chin up, head held high, you move on, finding therapy inside songs

Between your mother, the streets, and your favorite movie, you define right and wrong

Situations get out of hand, remain calm

Learn to listen more than you speak, and study the strong that prey on the weak

I watch those front power because of who they seek

Get left stranded up Schitt's Creek

Pretend tough, got some youth, now walk with a switch, using words like fleek

I always knew then, what I know now

That's why I hurdle life's obstacles, while others wonder how

I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean, wait, hold on, come on

My fault, my apologies, wait, one more time

I said I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean to make you wait, hold on, one more time

Tossed and forgotten, supposed to be nothing

Yet my driven desire decided I was gonna climb the mountain

To hide the fact, I am broken, ladies and gentlemen

To die, my best impersonation of human

Think what you may of my faults, but I'm doing

Gone are the days of just trying

Socially awkward, even worse when they start lying

Everyone is a sociopath, till you realize emotions fuel their wrath

Cool thing to say, I guess, in this day and age

Remember when the topic was mental health

And everyone used it to increase their wealth

I know I'm supposed to say I'm sorry, but can't think of what else to put aside of this apology

What else do they wanna hear

That'll make them think I care

Let me go in this mirror and practice my stare

I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean, wait, hold on, come on

My fault, my apologies, wait, one more time

I said I'm sorry, it's my fault, I didn't mean to make you, wait, hold on, one more time
