[00:08.49]【 Intro: Nate Ruess】 Mom, I know I let you down
[00:18.63]And though you say the days are happy
[00:22.02]Why is the power off and I'm ****ed up?
[00:25.65]And, Mom, I know he's not around
[00:31.65]But don't you place the blame on me
[00:35.16]As you pour yourself another drink, yeah
[00:39.66]I guess we are who we are
[00:45.75]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[00:52.65]Maybe we took this too far
[00:57.96]【Verse 1: Eminem】 I went in headfirst, never thinkin' about who what I said hurt
[01:02.10]In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst
[01:04.65]The brunt of it, but as stubborn as we are, did I take it too far?
[01:08.16]"Cleanin' Out My Closet" and all them other songs
[01:10.26]But regardless, I don't hate you ‘cause, Ma
[01:12.36]You're still beautiful to me, ‘ cause you're my mom
[01:15.12]Though far be it from you to be calm
[01:16.92]Our house was Vietnam, Desert Storm
[01:18.96]And both of us put together could form an atomic bomb
[01:21.33]Equivalent to chemical warfare
[01:22.95]And forever we could drag this on and on
[01:25.08]But agree to disagree, that gift for me
[01:27.93]Up under the Christmas tree don't mean shit to me
[01:29.88]You're kickin' me out? It's 15 degrees
[01:31.59]And it's Christmas Eve, "Little p***k, just leave!"
[01:33.36]Ma, let me grab my ****ing coat!
[01:35.01]Anything to have each other's goats
[01:36.57]Why we always at each other's throats?
[01:38.25]Especially when Dad, he ****ed us both
[01:40.35]We're in the same ****ing boat
[01:41.73]You'd think that'd make us close (nope)
[01:43.50]Further away it drove us, but together, headlights shine
[01:46.32]And a car full of belongings, still got a ways to go
[01:48.90]Back to grandma's house, it's straight up the road
[01:50.88]And I was the man of the house, the oldest
[01:52.59]So my shoulders carried the weight of the load
[01:55.23]Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight years old
[01:57.84]And that's when I realized you were sick
[01:59.82]And it wasn't fixable or changeable
[02:01.83]And to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though, but—
[02:04.29]【Chorus: Nate Ruess】 I guess we are who we are
[02:10.89]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[02:17.79]Maybe we took this too far
[02:23.43]【Verse 2: Eminem 】‘ Cause to this day we remain estranged, and I hate it though
[02:27.42]‘ Cause you ain't even get to witness your grandbabies grow
[02:30.75]But I'm sorry, Momma, for "Cleanin' Out My Closet"
[02:33.12]At the time I was angry, rightfully? Maybe so
[02:35.37]Never meant that far to take it though
[02:36.99]‘Cause now I know it's not your fault, and I'm not makin' jokes
[02:40.62]That song I no longer play at shows
[02:42.45]And I cringe every time it's on the radio
[02:44.82]And I think of Nathan being placed in a home
[02:46.92]And all the medicine you fed us and
[02:48.39]How I just wanted you to taste your own
[02:50.19]But now the medication's takin' over
[02:52.98]And your mental state's deterioratin' slow
[02:55.08]And I'm way too old to cry, the shit is painful though
[02:57.45]But, Ma, I forgive you, so does Nathan, yo
[03:00.12]All you did, all you said, you did your best to raise us both
[03:03.36]Foster care, that cross you bear, few may be as heavy as yours
[03:06.90]But I love you, Debbie Mathers
[03:08.37]Oh, what a tangled web we have ‘cause
[03:10.14]One thing I never asked was
[03:11.76]Where the **** my deadbeat dad was
[03:13.41]**** it, I guess he had trouble keepin' up with every address
[03:16.74]But I'da flipped every mattress, every rock and desert cactus
[03:20.13]Owned a collection of maps
[03:21.33]And followed my kids to the edge of the atlas
[03:23.25]If someone ever moved 'em from me
[03:24.87]That you coulda bet your asses
[03:26.49]If I had to come down the chimney, dressed as Santa, kidnap 'em
[03:29.94]And although one has only met their grandma once
[03:32.70]You pulled up in our drive one night
[03:34.38]As we were leavin' to get some hamburgers
[03:36.42]Me, her and Nate, we introduced you, hugged you
[03:38.97]And as you left I had this overwhelming sadness
[03:42.06]Come over me as we pulled off to go our separate paths and
[03:45.39]I saw your headlights as I looked back
[03:47.40]And I'm mad I didn't get the chance to
[03:49.29]Thank you for being my mom and my dad
[03:51.51]So, Mom, please accept this as a
[03:53.25]Tribute; I wrote this on the jet, I guess I had to
[03:55.74]Get this off my chest, I hope I get the chance to
[03:58.17]Lay it 'fore I'm dead, the stewardess said to fasten
[04:00.69]My seatbelt, I guess we're crashin'
[04:03.12]So, if I'm not dreamin', I hope you get this message that
[04:06.33]I will always love you from afar, ‘ cause you're my mom
[04:08.91]【Chorus: Nate Ruess】 I guess we are who we are
[04:15.30]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[04:22.23]Maybe we took this too far
[04:27.12]I want a new life (start over)
[04:29.91]One without a cause (clean slate)
[04:32.79]So I'm coming home tonight
[04:36.00]Well, no matter what the cost
[04:39.72]And if the plane goes down
[04:42.60]Or if the crew can't wake me up
[04:45.84]Well, just know that I'm alright
[04:49.32]I was not afraid to die
[04:52.77]Oh, even if there's songs to sing
[04:55.98]Well, my children will carry me
[04:59.13]Just know that I'm alright
[05:02.40]I was not afraid to die
[05:05.49]Because I put my faith in my little girls
[05:08.97]So I'll never say goodbye cruel world
[05:12.27]Just know that I'm alright
[05:15.54]I am not afraid to die
[05:20.61]【Outro: Nate Ruess】 I guess we are who we are
[05:27.30]Headlights shining in the dark night, I drive on
[05:34.23]Maybe we took this too far
[05:38.94]I want a new life
