Eminem - Headlights (Explicit) ft. Nate Ruess Lyrics (.LRC)
[00:01.60]Mom
[00:03.50]I know I let you down
[00:07.30]And though you say the days are happy
[00:10.60]Why is the power off, and I'm ****** up?
[00:14.20]And mom, I know he's not around
[00:20.10]But don't you place the blame on me
[00:23.80]As you pour yourself another drink and
[00:27.60]I went in headfirst
[00:28.60]Never thinking about who what I said hurt, in what verse
[00:31.70]My ****probably got it the worst
[00:33.50]The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are
[00:35.80]Did I take it too far?
[00:36.90]Cleaning out my closet and all them other songs
[00:39.00]But regardless I don't hate you 'cause ma!
[00:41.20]You're still beautiful to me, cause you're my mom
[00:43.90]Though far be it for you to be calling, my house was Vietnam
[00:46.90]Desert Storm and both of us put together
[00:49.00]Can form an atomic bomb equivalent to chemical warfare
[00:51.80]And forever we can drag this on and on
[00:53.80]But, agree to disagree
[00:55.50]That gift from me up under the Christmas tree don't mean **** to me
[00:58.80]You're kicking me out? It's fifteen degrees and it's Christmas Eve (little ***** just leave)
[01:02.20]Ma, let me grab my ******* coat, anything to have each other's goats
[01:05.30]Why we always at each others throats? Especially when dad, he ****** us both
[01:08.60]We're in the same ******* boat, you'd think that it'd make us close (nope)
[01:12.00]Further away that drove us, but together headlights shine, a car full of belongings
[01:16.50]Still got a ways to go, back to grandma's house it's straight up the road
[01:19.80]And I was the man of the house, the oldest, so my shoulders carried the weight of the load
[01:23.40]Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight years old, and
[01:27.10]That's when I realized you were sick and it wasn't fixable or changeable
[01:30.40]And to this day we remained estranged and I hate it though, but
[01:33.60]I guess we are who we are
[01:38.80]Headlights shining in the dark night I drive on
[01:46.90]Maybe we took this too far
[01:53.30]'Cause to this day we remain estranged and I hate it though
[01:56.30]'Cause you ain't even get to witness your grand baby's growth
[01:59.80]But I'm sorry mama for 'Cleaning Out My Closet', at the time I was angry
[02:03.30]Rightfully maybe so, never meant that far to take it though, 'cause
[02:06.30]Now I know it's not your fault, and I'm not making jokes
[02:09.30]That song I no longer play at shows and I cringe every time it's on the radio
[02:13.50]And I think of Nathan being placed in a home
[02:15.90]And all the medicine you fed us
[02:17.20]And how I just wanted you to taste your own, but
[02:19.30]Now the medications taken over and your mental states deteriorating slow
[02:23.90]And I'm way too old to cry, that ****** painful though
[02:26.90]But ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan yo
[02:29.00]All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
[02:32.20]Foster care, that cross you ****, few may be as heavy as yours
[02:36.00]But I love you Debbie Mathers, oh what a tangled web we have, 'cause
[02:39.00]One thing I never asked was where the **** my deadbeat dad was
[02:42.20]**** it I guess he had trouble keeping up with every address
[02:45.50]But I'd have flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus
[02:48.80]Own a collection of maps and followed my kids to the edge of the atlas
[02:52.10]Someone ever moved them from me? That you could bet your ass's
[02:55.40]If I had to come down the chimney dressed as Santa, kidnap them
[02:58.80]And although one has met their grandma
[03:01.00]Once you pulled up in our drive one night as we were leaving to get some hamburgers
[03:05.40]Me, her and Nate, we introduced you, hugged you
[03:07.90]And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness come over me
[03:11.90]As we pulled off to go our separate paths, and
[03:14.60]I saw your headlights as I looked back
[03:16.60]And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to thank you for being my ****and my Dad
[03:20.40]So Mom, please accept this as a tribute I wrote this on the jet
[03:23.70]I guess I had to get this off my chest, I hope I get the chance to lay it before I'm dead
[03:28.20]The stewardess said to fasten my seat ****, I guess we're crashing
[03:31.10]So if I'm not dreaming, I hope you get this message that I'll always love you from afar
[03:37.30]'Cause you're my mama
[03:38.40]I guess we are who we are
[03:42.90]Headlights shining in the dark night I drive on
[03:51.50]Maybe we took this too far
[03:56.40]I want a new life
