Smizzy - Don't You Blame Me lyrics

[Verse 1: Smiles Again] 17, with my license We thought "hey, we might as well try it" If I act like I'm not fazed to the guy out the front of the pub Then he might buy it Then he bought it, awesome Jack and Coke we ordered for of them Excitement rushed through our veins as our brains then Couldn't believe what they were pouring for us Imagine that Yeah Two kids in a world that they did not know But it did not show That there put me in lift off mode Same mind set when the chips got low What I'm saying is to live on hope When there ain't none there and you cannot cope Life is… Crazy How many hurricanes, floods, d**hs, and festival line-ups Have you heard about lately? Trust me it's happening right now, a lad on his night out Someone somewhere is smacking his lights out Cop car sirens are flashing their lights round Meanwhile in the wait for the racket to pipe down My ex girl sent me a text to see We all know how ex's be But she don't get a text from me Cos that'd make my new girl an ex to be We all on the chase of that ecstasy But no ex in me you can check my teeth Most the time we get cramped legs and feet Rarely do we ever get the exit seat And that's a metaphor for rent and B I.L.L.S. and expenses we Go and happen encounter each and every week So I think back to when I was 17, can you blame me [Hook] Don't you blame me For what I do not know What I have not grown in to be I said don't you blame me Those tears in your eyes Are making it harder to see I said don't you blame me [Verse 2: Smiles Again] 24, on a night out I was up late like a night owl Then the cops went and did a walk through And they told me to get right out right now It was late So I told him I thought that's a great idea Then I skulled my drink and I put the gla** down In between his two boots when I finished my beer And it pissed him off major I'm talking major Now I'm in the corner of the lift arm bended up my back Like he was trying to break it Spent a night locked up N' got out in the morning With a court date then I walked strait Out gathered up my pennies and I went and got a lawyer Told her I was wasted sure Smart a** but I didn't break the law N' I can prove it with the video tapes for sure But when we got there the video tapes were gone He supplied his report lied through it all Deleted footage then denied it of coarse Then told me to plead guilty or else he'd have more Charges added if I decided to not Black mail, that failed Man I proved it all Then they went and dropped all charges 10 minutes Before the hearing they knew they would lose in court It was one for the ages But my effort wasn't wasted Cos they paid for more than my trip to Vegas With 15 thousand in compensation all because they blamed me [Hook] [Bridge] We are We are the ones who feel this And I'm Scared they won't think I'm fearless Tried to paint me a halo I couldn't quite get the colours right Where the hell did the day go? Spent my time chasing bu*terflies I'll live till a hundred And have every answer for every question They ever thought of but for now The beauty's in trying to work it out
