I’m the Problem Lyrics by Morgan Wallen
[Verse 1]
You say I'll never change
I'm just a-go around town with some gasoline
Just tryin' to bum a flame
Gonna burn the whole place down
And how do you explain
Ever fallin' in love with a guy like me in the first place
Then turn around, say that I'm the worst thing?
[Chorus]
I guess I'm the problem
And you're Ms. "Never Do No Wrong"
If I'm so awful
Then why'd you stick around this long?
And if it's the whiskey
Then why you keep on pullin' it off the shelf?
You hate that when you look at me, you halfway see yourself
And it got me thinkin'
If I'm the problem, well, you might be the reason
[Verse 2]
We try to go our sеparate ways
And we're back and forth likе a swingin' door
And tomorrow's like yesterday
Some days better than the night before
And you're back to me again
Then you go and tell your friends
[Chorus]
That I'm the problem
And you're Ms. "Never Do No Wrong"
If I'm so awful
Then why'd you stick around this long?
And if it's the whiskey
Then why you keep on pullin' it off the shelf?
You hate that when you look at me, you halfway see yourself
And it got me thinkin'
If I'm the problem, well, you might be the reason
[Bridge]
If I'm such a waste of breath, such a waste of time
Then why you on your way to waste another Friday night?
[Chorus]
If I'm the problem
And you're Ms. "Never Do No Wrong"
If I'm so awful
Then why'd you stick around this long?
And if it's the whiskey
Then why you keep on pullin' it off the shelf?
You hate that when you look at me, you halfway see yourself
And it got me thinkin'
If I'm the problem, well, you might be the reason
About the Song: I’m the Problem by Morgan Wallen
I’m the Problem is Morgan Wallen’s fourth single from his album of the same name. This song has been branded as a “narcissist” anthem due to its lyrics. I’m the Problem tells the story of a person with destructive behaviors while in a relationship.
Verses
The singer is hurt because his partner keeps saying that he’s the worst and keeps badmouthing him, yet claims that she loves him. He’s questioning her how can she fall in love with someone like him if she thinks so lowly of him? They are in an on-again-off-again relationship where some days are good, but some days are bad.
Chorus
The singer is well aware that he is the problem but can’t understand why his girl keeps staying if she thinks the same thing. The girl always claims to be always right and never does any wrong but they both know that she sees herself in him and that she might be the reason why the singer is such a problem.
Bridge
The girl claims to hate him for being a waste of time and for being a problem, yet she can’t stop herself from going back to him over and over again.
