Weight On My Shoulders

I know you worked hard all your life

To give me everything I needed

But how much longer must I apologize

'Cause you feel cheated and defeated?

I never asked you to sacrifice

All your dreams and your entire life

I never questioned your ability

To be a provider for us, your family

So, please don't throw your bitterness in my face

Don't make me carry the weight on my shoulders

All I needed was a little attention

And all I wanted from you was your affection

Please don't keep pushing me

Please don't keep pushing me away

I never criticized the decisions you made the way you criticized mine

Those words hurt more than you will ever know

But all the wounds will heal in time

I never asked of you to sacrifice

All your dreams and your entire life

I never questioned your ability

To be a provider for us, your family

So, please don't throw your bitterness in my face

Don't make me carry the weight on my shoulders

All I needed was a little attention

And all I wanted from you was your affection

Please don't keep pushing me

Please don't keep pushing me away

So, please don't throw your bitterness in my face

Don't make me carry the weight on my shoulders

All I needed was a little attention

And all I wanted from you was your affection

Please don't keep pushing me

Please don't keep pushing me away

Please don't keep pushing me

Please don't keep pushing me away
