[Verse 1]
Sorry I yell at the girls
Sorry I snap when I’m hurt
Got all this junk in my chest
And I throw it out first
I see the look in their eyes
That “why you talkin’ like that?”
I hear my mama in my head
“Boy, you turning into your dad”
I hate myself for the tone
Hate I make home feel cold
Every “leave me alone”
Cuts a piece from my soul
I’m tryna be better, I swear
But the anger’s quick as a blink
By the time that I calm down
They already changed what they think
[Chorus]
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I push you away
Sorry I mess up every day
I hate that I do bad
Hate that I make you afraid
I just wanna change my ways
I’m tired of feeling unwanted
Tired of sleepin’ with this weight
I just wanna be loved and love again
Can we start again today?
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I push you away
I just wanna change my ways
[Verse 2]
I scroll my phone in the dark
See happy people and rings
I got a room full of ghosts
Names I don’t message or ring
They say I’m “too hard to love”
I say “whatever, I’m fine”
Then I’m alone with my thoughts
Playing back every line
Why I talk like that?
Why I throw love in the trash?
Why I turn gold into glass?
Why I run first, then crash?
I’m tired of breaking my own heart
Tired of living like this
I wanna hold someone close
Not just apologize in a text
[Chorus]
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I push you away
Sorry I mess up every day
I hate that I do bad
Hate that I make you afraid
I just wanna change my ways
I’m tired of feeling unwanted
Tired of sleepin’ with this weight
I just wanna be loved and love again
Can we start again today?
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I push you away
I just wanna change my ways
[Bridge]
I don’t want perfect
I just want progress
Little less shouting
Little more softness
Look in the mirror
Tell that kid “stay”
You ain’t your worst thing
You can still change (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I push you away
Sorry I mess up every day
I hate that I do bad
But I’m tryna learn from the pain
I’m tryna change my ways
I’m tired of feeling unwanted
Tired of hiding my faith
I just wanna be loved and love again
Let me try again today
I’m sorry I yell
Sorry I pushed you away
I swear I’ll change my ways (oh yeah)
