(verse 1)
If family is only blood
If family is only DNA
Then I was fucked up from the start
How could God do this to me
Cause with them I never stood a chance
No helping hand
(Chorus)(Powerful voice)
I have a lot of anger
That came from my father
Can't stay in one place too long
And I got that from my mom
Don't know how to communicate
Don't know what love really feels like
They only showed me their messed up ways
They only taught me how to get high
(Verse 2)
Grew up with a lot of locked doors
Music to cover all the noises
Make-up to cover all the bruises
Standing in the mirror feeling insecure
Then being told I'm selfish, I'm lazy,
I cause a lot of pain
How can this be a family
(Chorus)(Powerful voice)
I have a lot of anger
That came from my father
Can't stay in one place too long
And I got that from my mom
Don't know how to communicate
Don't know what love really feels like
They only showed me their messed up ways
They only taught me how to get high
(Bridge)
Maybe I should take their advice
Down a bottle of pills
To hide what I feel
Stick a needle in my arm
To make everything numb
(Chorus)(Revised)(Soft)
I have a lot of anger
That came from my father
Can't stay in one place too long
And I got that from my mom
Curly hair just like his
Blue eyes just like hers
Am I ever gonna escape this
Am I ever gonna not hurt
(Outro)
If family is only blood
If family is only DNA
Then I was fucked up from the start
How could God do this to me
