Not My Son

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She came around my door With a story in her mouth Said I left a spark behind Now she’s pointing me out But I know that look too well When the rumors start to spin I keep my hands up clear I don’t let that in [Pre-Chorus] Hear me now She can say what she wants Hear me now I’m not the one she wants [Chorus] Not my son, not my son That chain don’t run from me Not my son, not my son You can’t pin that on me Not my son, not my son Say it loud, say it plain Not my son, not my son I won’t wear that name [Verse 2] She was all gold eyes And a smile like a dare Left a note on my windshield Then she vanished in the air Now the whole block talking Like they know the truth But I’ve been down this road And I see right through [Pre-Chorus] Hear me now She can say what she wants Hear me now I’m not the one she wants [Chorus] Not my son, not my son That chain don’t run from me Not my son, not my son You can’t pin that on me Not my son, not my son Say it loud, say it plain Not my son, not my son I won’t wear that name [Bridge] Take that whisper off my back Take that finger from my face If there’s truth in what she says Then put it in its place I won’t fold for a story I won’t bow to the lie If you want the real answer Look me in the eye [Chorus] Not my son, not my son That chain don’t run from me Not my son, not my son You can’t pin that on me Not my son, not my son Say it loud, say it plain Not my son, not my son I won’t wear that name
