[Intro – Dino-style falsetto + Hollister grit]
Mmm… yeah…
I know I messed up, girl…
But let me talk to you…
Just listen…
⸻
[Verse 1 – Grown-man confession]
I ain’t gon’ lie, I been runnin’ from the truth,
Actin’ like the things I did ain’t hurt you.
I was caught up in my pride, wasn’t thinkin’ straight,
Thought you’d always be around… now I’m too late.
You tried to love me through the storms I created,
Tried to give me all your heart, I never appreciated.
And now I’m sittin’ here alone with these regrets,
Replayin’ every moment that I wish I could reset.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Dino soul lift]
And I know…
(Oh I know, girl…)
If you walk away tonight, it’s on me…
But before you go, just hear my plea…
⸻
[Chorus – Dave Hollister pain]
I’ll take the blame…
Every tear you cried, every hurt you hold inside — that’s on my name.
I ain’t perfect, girl, and I ain’t proud of how I changed.
But if you give me one more chance, I promise I won’t be the same.
Yeah… I’ll take the blame.
⸻
[Verse 2 – Dino emotion + harmony]
I ain’t tryna feed you nothin’ you don’t wanna hear,
I just don’t wanna see you gone — girl, that’s my fear.
You gave me loyalty when I gave excuses,
You gave me everything while I stayed useless.
But now I’m seein’ what your love was worth,
And I’m beggin’ for your heart like it’s the last thing on Earth.
Tryna right my wrongs with the time I got left,
I know love ain’t perfect, but I’m givin’ you my best.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Grit + falsetto layers]
And I know…
(Yeah I know, baby…)
You got every right to say you’re done with me…
But before you close that door, let me speak…
⸻
[Chorus – Stronger, more emotional]
I’ll take the blame…
Every tear you cried, every hurt you hold inside — that’s on my name.
I ain’t perfect, girl, and I ain’t proud of how I changed.
But if you give me one more chance, I promise I won’t be the same.
Yeah… I’ll take the blame.
⸻
[Bridge – Dino Conner high emotion run]
Ohhh, I’m beggin’ you girl…
Don’t walk away from me…
I know I messed up, but baby…
Your love is where I’m supposed to be.
I’m down on my knees,
Ask you please…
Let me make it right this time…
Baby don’t say goodbye…
⸻
[Final Chorus – Dave Hollister deep soul]
I’ll take the blame…
Every tear you cried, every wound that you hide — that’s on my name.
I ain’t perfect, but I’m standin’ here ready to change.
Baby, don’t give up on us… I’m tryna heal what I strained.
Yeah… I’ll take the blame.
I’ll take the blame…
For you, girl…
For you…
