Excuse Me cover
09. Simply Broken Down
Album: Excuse Me
Artist: Kaboose
         
 

Verse 1:
I’m tired of single parents trying to raise their kids
Most don’t even know what a father is
Cause they didn’t have one and now their children are the same
That's the cycle of life where someone gets blamed
For the problem but no one's willing to fix it
We all want sex but can’t handle what goes with it
First it was love, and then a skipped marriage
Up to the point of a baby in a carriage
But now love is lost and you feel so trapped, so what is it?
Let's take time and get specific
You lent a helping hand for the pleasures of flesh
But when the baby came, that’s when you left
So maybe it was just lust to begin with
Which led to a broken promise where trust was ended
Cause it happened so quick, both parties were stunned
With only one option and that was to run

Chorus:
It’s just another broken home and that’s how we treat it
A broken relationship that’s been deleted
A broken marriage with some broken kids
Simply broken down and this is how it is

Verse 2:
Love is a funny thing like unsolved mysteries
Which seems to end in assault or injury
Whether it’s mentally or physically cause we don’t treat it right
Or even seem to understand
If we can’t control our pants then we can’t advance
Now some base love just upon attraction
But then find out this puzzle’s not matching
Cause we get brought back into introspect
We forgot to interject our intellect and come correct
Yo we started backwards with a child then a house
Along came a marriage, now here’s your spouse
And the funny thing is all that you know
Is the body that remains underneath the clothes
Never took the time to build and get to know your partner
Cause honesty that would take you farther
And speaking up for what you believe in

Chorus

Verse 3:
I see young ones with tears in their eyes
Ashamed and feel blamed as every second dies
Children get stuck wondering why
"Is it my fault, is it something I did?
I don’t understand this house that I’m in
I feel so alone and so hopeless
Where did you go, Dad? I’m so broken
Was I a mistake you can’t take back?"
"Where did you go, Mom? You left me with Dad"
"Or maybe you're both here and I’m invisible
I’m crying out, this is so critical
I need love even if it’s minimal"
It’s despicable how they're treated
Cheated from true love through a marriage deleted
That’s the facts of life that we can’t change
We need to be responsible for the choices we make

Chorus
