"YOU MADE ME THIS WAY" lyrics
Born to a mother who wasn't even ready
And a father who took off in an American Chevy
Bills piling up until it breaches the levee
No one there to teach me where to reach when everything is heavy
My stepfather resents me, taking all my mother's time
All my friends live out of town 'cause I met them online
Feels like the whole world forgets me, so I'm going down in history
Better get down on the ground quickly
Or I'm bringing you down with me
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
You made, you made me this way
You made, you made me this way
I was born in a country that only thought I mattered
When I was an embryonic sack of cells beside my mother's bladder
Showed up too early, government services scattered
Should've been the best day of her life, but my mother was shattered
'Cause when you need a roof and a place to sleep
And you got a new mouth to feed
You'd do just about anything
Yeah, so I react 'cause this place don't love me back
Republican or democrat
You get stabbed from the front or you get stabbed from the back
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
You made, you made me this way
You made, you made me this way
Go
Go, go
Died in a country that seems to think it's good
To put police in the community who ain't from the neighborhood
Live a constant contradiction
Put a fetus on a throne like he's Jesus
Then when he meets us, I guess he's on his own
Put the coast and the ocean up for sale
First, lock you up, raise the bail
Make money off of these chemicals as we overdose off fentanyl
Ban a woman's right to choose, but at the gun show there's nothing they can do
So I guess this shootout in the street was the only way that I'd find my peace
Still say I'm a problem, not a symptom
But it's a symbiotic system
I'm a martyr, I'm a victim
And my heart beats with the kick drum
Close my eyes, I see the light
I'll no longer be denied
Now everybody run 'cause the kid has got the gun
And he's all the way undone
Go
Go, go
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
And a father who took off in an American Chevy
Bills piling up until it breaches the levee
No one there to teach me where to reach when everything is heavy
My stepfather resents me, taking all my mother's time
All my friends live out of town 'cause I met them online
Feels like the whole world forgets me, so I'm going down in history
Better get down on the ground quickly
Or I'm bringing you down with me
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
You made, you made me this way
You made, you made me this way
I was born in a country that only thought I mattered
When I was an embryonic sack of cells beside my mother's bladder
Showed up too early, government services scattered
Should've been the best day of her life, but my mother was shattered
'Cause when you need a roof and a place to sleep
And you got a new mouth to feed
You'd do just about anything
Yeah, so I react 'cause this place don't love me back
Republican or democrat
You get stabbed from the front or you get stabbed from the back
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
You made, you made me this way
You made, you made me this way
Go
Go, go
Died in a country that seems to think it's good
To put police in the community who ain't from the neighborhood
Live a constant contradiction
Put a fetus on a throne like he's Jesus
Then when he meets us, I guess he's on his own

And he's all the way undone
Go
Go, go
I'm all the way, I'm all the way undone
I am all the way, I'm all the way undone
