You Lyrics by Empires.Collapse

Rage in the Back

2020

You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it

I get it, I’m gone, I’m never around now
I never have time to spend, I always keep my eyes down
I’m an absent partner. I’m a bad companion
It’s a lot for you to handle, I hope you can manage
I’m going to try harder
I’m going to make an effort to be around longer
Believe me, as soon as I get back this time
It’s me and you, every day, I promise
I ain't going to lie, I’ve been missing you lately
I been thinking bout the way we used to kick it daily
Stupid how I’ve left you, how I’m misbehaving
How I’m missing out on what should be so amazing
Every day I step away you
Always have a hold on me, believe me, I hate to
Leave you standing by yourself like my home
Isn’t right there in front of my microphone

You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it
You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it

I left you, because you treated them better
I gave you everything I had, and yet you seek a contender
You were my first love, and probably my last
Be the worst one, that I’ll never get past
Been so fickle with my heart I can barely breathe without you
I hate the way you treat me, always leaving me with doubts. Yea
Always after someone walk’s the same line
Put a crown on your head, while you took away mine
And that’s it
I really hate to admit it, but there’s beauty in your passing
Gaslit. You treat me like a bastard
I’m really not surprised that I just keep fucking asking
You love me, you leave me, you constantly switch up
I fall to my knees praying I could just give up
Always come around again, hands of a clock, tick tock
Forever be my love lost. Hiphop

You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it
You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it

I’m addicted. I been living with this bitch
Of a monkey on my back since I was a kid, shit
Feel I been under attack since I was an infant
Been a fuckin run of the mill struggle since, then
I’m a junkie. Life long damager
Fight for freedom? I can’t manage it
Every time I leave I can feel it strangling
Every breath I take is like I’m choking down the anger then
I’m running right back, slipping down a rugged, night path
To the dark of the monkey on my back. Nothing but a crash
Suffering, a sucker for the stash. Fucking, ducking in the black
Just to hide from the constant light flash. Vice stabs
And I’m gone. Just another putrid
Victim of addiction, I lived a life foolish
A message to anybody caught up in the stupid
Ideology that life is motherfuckin music

You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it. Stop it
You. You. You got me. Got me
Always leave me wanting, Wanting
Everything you do is haunting. Haunting
I could never stop it
