How Could You Leave Us Lyrics - NF

1 How could you leave us so unexpected?

2 We were waiting, we were waiting

3 For you but you just left us

4 We needed you, I needed you

5 Yo, I don't know what it's like to be addicted to pills

6 But I do know what it's like to be a witness it kills

7 Mama told me she love me, I'm thinking this isn't real

8 I think of you when I get a whiff of that cigarette smell, yeah

9 Welcome to the bottom of hell

10 They say pain is a prison, let me out of my cell

11 You say you proud of me, but you don't know me that well

12 Sit in my room, tears running down my face and I yell

13 Into my pillowcases, you say you coming to get us

14 Then call 'em a minute later just to tell us you not, I'm humiliated

15 I'm in a room with a parent that I don't barely know

16 Some lady in the corner watching us, while she taking notes

17 I don't get it mom, don't you want to watch your babies grow?

18 I guess that pills are more important, all you have to say is no

19 But you won't do it will you? You gon' keep popping 'til those pills kill you

20 I know you gone but I can still feel you

21 Why would you leave us? Why would you leave us here?

22 How could you leave us here?

23 How would you leave us? Why would you leave us?

24 Oh, Hey

25 I got this picture in my room and it kills me

26 But I don't need a picture of my mom, I need the real thing

27 Now a relationship is something we won't ever have

28 Why do I feel like I lost something that I never had?

29 You shoulda been there when I graduated

30 Told me you love me and congratulations

31 Instead you left us at the window waiting

32 Where you at mom? We're too young to understand where you at huh?

33 Yeah, I know those drugs got you held captive

34 I can see it in your eyes, they got your mind captured

35 Some say it's fun to get the high but I am not laughing

36 What you don't realize and what you not grasping

37 That I was nothing but a kid who couldn't understand

38 I ain't gon' say that I forgive you cause it hasn't happened

39 I thought that maybe I feel better as time passes

40 If you really cared for me, then where you at then?

41 Why would you leave us? Why would you leave us?

42 How could you leave us here?

43 How would you leave us? Why would you leave us?

44 Hey

45 Our last conversation, you were sat in the living room

46 Talking 'bout my music and I brought you something to listen to

47 You started crying, telling me this isn't you

48 Couple weeks later, guess you were singing a different tune

49 You took them pills for the last time, didn't you?

50 They took you from us once, guess they came back to finish you

51 Crying my eyes out in the studio is difficult

52 Music is the only place that I can go to speak to you

53 Took me everything inside of me to not scream at your funeral

54 Sitting in my chair, that person talking was pitiful

55 I wish you were here mama but every time I picture you

56 All I feel is pain, I hate the way I remember you

57 They found you on the floor, I could tell that you felt hollow

58 Gave everything you had plus your life to them pill bottles

59 You gave everything you had plus your life to them pill bottles

60 Don't know if you hear me or not, but if you still watching ma

61 Why would you leave us? Why would you leave us?

62 How could you leave us here?

63 How would you leave us? Why would you leave us?

64 Hey

65 Sometimes I think about like, sometimes I think about things like, you know, when I have kids, you won't be there, you know? You won't be there for any of that, I'll never get to see you again, sometimes I wish I would have just called you, I wish I would have just picked up the phone, wish you were here, I mean you should of been there for us, you should have been here, those pills got you, right? Them pills got you, right? I wish you were here
