"No Blame" lyrics

Better luck next time
(But I don't blame)
I don't blame you, mama
Mhm, I don't blame you, mama
(But I don't blame)

I don't blame you, mama
You was walkin' the streets alone, you couldn't shake the trauma
Chicago streets, the shit you seen been weighin' on your conscious
I cry and blame myself for all the shit that fell upon us (But I don't blame)

I don't blame you, mama
It wasn't you that day, you told me I would get my karma
I was seven years old, waitin' on you in pajamas
You said you would come home, should've never made that promise
How could I blame you mama?
I ran from you that day, I'm not numb to those encounters
I've seen you in the worst way when the police say they've found you
Grandma told me you died, how am I gon' live without you? (But I don't blame)
I could never shame you, mama
Always felt the same about you, we come from restrainin' orders
Why is he puttin' hands on you? I just wanna play with toys
You and grandma fightin' for me, CPS is at the door (But I don't blame)
I still don't blame you, mama
Smokin' cigarettes in that house made it haunted
Skeleton in the closet, spent my birthday running from it
How you pregnant with a Xanax in your stomach? (But I don't blame)
I'm wishin' change upon us
Broken change and bringin' pain, you still gon' break your promise
That you made to me in jail before you had Mikeal that summer
I was still a baby, mama
My daddy disappeared, how you neglect your baby mama? (But I don't blame)

But I won't blame you mama
You was walking the streets alone, you couldn't shake the trauma
Chicago streets, the shit you seen been weighin' on your conscious
I cry and blame myself for all the shit that fell upon us (But I don't blame)

(I run away on Mother's Day) I don't blame you mama
(So cold and I don't feel loved today) Mhm
(I run away on Mother's Day) I don't blame you mama
(So cold and I don't feel loved today, but I don't blame)
(I run away, I run away) I don't blame you mama
(I run away, I run away) Mhm
(I run away, I run away) I don't blame you mama
(I run away, I run, but I don't blame)
So I don't blame you mama (B-But I don't-)
(But I don't blame)
