Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I used to say I was free
Now all these people wanna keep on takin' pieces of me
They take away everything, had everything that I needed
They held me down, let me drown
They spit me out right through the teeth
I can't pretend, ash in the wind, won't blow again
It was a breeze for you (Breeze for you)
[Verse 2]
These hurricanes inside of my brain, let it rain, made it look easy
Can't look away, you love the pain
You love the pain watchin' me bleed
You cut me down on my knees
No matter what you believe
I think we both can agree
[Chorus]
That you can't blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
Blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
I couldn't breathe
Almost lost myself, couldn't stop myself
I did it all, you can't blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
[Verse 3]
Every day's the same, yeah, I just watch 'em go
As I scrape away through the impossible
Yeah, I played the game but it was all for show
Tryna find my way, I nearly lost it though
Now I see dead people, most have no faith
Where did the time go? A watch with no face
They hit the ceilin', but my roof likes space
I took my chances so won't you
[Chorus]
Blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
Blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
I couldn't breathe
Almost lost myself, couldn't stop myself, I did it all
You can't blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault, not my fault
[Bridge]
It's all my fault that I'm addicted to the clothes
It's all my fault, I paid the cost, yeah
It's all my fault that I ain't givin' up my soul
It's all my fault
[Verse 4]
Watchin' me bleed (Watchin' me bleed)
You cut me down on my knees (You cut me down on my knees)
No matter what you believe
I think we both can agree
[Chorus]
That you can't blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
Blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
I couldn't breathe
Almost lost myself, couldn't stop myself, I did it all
You can't blame it on me (Aye)
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
[Verse 5]
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
Blame it on me, yeah
It's not my fault, it's not my fault, it's not my fault
