KID ROCK - My Oedipus Complex lyrics

rate me

I need somebody won't u help me

I need somebody won't you tell me who I am

I need somebody please please help me

I need somebody u must tell me who I am

I've been livin a lie so long it seems I've lived a life time

If u could see what I feel it would make your ghetto lood like heaven

And I believe it stems down from my family situation

I never liked my old man

I couldn't stand to be around him

Sometimes I sit all alone just starin at his picture

My heart turns to stone and I think of this

You never loved me you never held me tight

instead u shook me like a beast to wake me up at night

u tried to make me think that your ways were best

when all I was was an outlet for all your stress

Life it's the ultimate sin

A game with no rules that you're expected to win

My personal hell's hidden with a grin

"Dad take the stand and let the trial begin"

U said that oil and water don't mix though it seems cool

Keep with your own and don't fuck up our gene pool

U should've went to school like your bigger brother

but you played the fool with a different color

Runnin' ship with a whip

I tried to keep up but I kept getting tripped

Money made u so wise

how could u look thru my face and not see your own eyes

Do as i say and not as I do

but I can't cuz when I look in the mirror I see u

And oh the pain how it hurts

it was always your home and your business that came first

U said a man is as good as his word

but your mind was closed and mine never herd

They say the nut don't fall far from the tree

look at u then look at me...

U ain't nothin to me u've never been to me

And all u ever gave a damn about was money see

So now fuck u man you ain't shit to me

And it's the day that I die of this hate that I'm free

Now I know growin up son that it ain't always been easy

and I know at times I was not always there for you

We never spent much time just talkin or havin a good time

but understand growin up son I never had a dime

So I worked my ass off and I put myself thru college

and everything I have to this day u know I built it all

Oh I wish I could go back and change the years that's lost between us

I wish I could take back some of the things I said to you

Son I said I'm sorry...

Son I said I'm sorry but still u resent me so

Son I said I'm sorry and why do u resent me so

I always loved u I always cared for u

just never wanted U to go thru what I've been thru

I tried to raise my fuckin family just the best I know

and now I'm hated like the devil and for what I don't know

Dahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
