Calling Me Out
Rebelution Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know were not the same, but you’re calling me out
I-I can’t explain it, you’re calling me out
I’m not to blame, don’t call me out

And I can explain it, you’re calling me out
Let’s get to the point yeahh
Did I disappoint ya
I wish this was a dream, but for now you put the blame on me

And I don’t really know what we’re fighting for
But right now it doesn’t matter though
Still you put the blame on me

I know were not the same, but you’re calling me out
And I can’t explain it, you’re calling me out
I’m not to blame, don’t call me out

Well I can’t explain it, you’re calling me out
Sometimes you know you just gotta let things go
Sometimes you know you just gotta let things go

Right or wrong, I’m moving on
And this one is for sure
Sometimes you know you just gotta let things go




Oo woo-oh yeahh
Oo woo-oh

+JuuanJo Aguirre Sé que no eran lo mismo, pero me estás llamando
I-No puedo explicarlo, me estás diciendo en voz alta
Yo no tengo la culpa, no me llames a cabo

Y me lo puedo explicar, me estás diciendo en voz alta
Vamos a llegar al punto yeahh
¿Me decepcionó ya
Me gustaría que este era un sueño, pero por ahora te pongo la culpa a mí

Y yo no sé realmente lo que estamos luchando por
Pero ahora mismo no importa aunque
Aún así se pone la culpa a mí

Sé que no eran lo mismo, pero me estás llamando
Y yo no lo puedo explicar, me estás diciendo en voz alta
Yo no tengo la culpa, no me llames a cabo

Bueno, yo no lo puedo explicar, me estás diciendo en voz alta
A veces sabes que solo tienes que dejarlo cosas van
A veces sabes que solo tienes que dejarlo cosas van

Bien o mal, me estoy moviendo en
Y éste es segura
A veces sabes que solo tienes que dejarlo cosas van
Oo-oh woo yeahh
Oo woo-oh
