Lyrics
[Intro]
(single piano note, dark strings building)
[Verse 1]
I sat across from where I came from couldn’t look away
This is what my bloodline left behind along the way
One who took too much and burned her mind down to the ground
One who’s somewhere that the rest of us don’t want to be found
I sat there looking at the wreckage trying to understand
How two people could produce a life and never have a plan
I looked for something I could recognize behind their eyes
Found nothing but a warning and I finally realized
[Hook]
I am not what’s sitting in that room
I am not the wreckage and the ruin
I am nothing like the blood that I come from
And I thank God every single day for where I’m from
[Verse 2]
My sister knows it too we don’t have to say it out loud
We stood on the same edge and we both found different ground
Some people run toward what they came from looking for a piece
I ran the other direction and I finally found some peace
Because I know exactly what that path looks like up close
I’ve seen it with my own eyes and I want nothing of those
No piece of that makes its way inside my house or to my kids
They’ll never know that world exists not what it is
The disgust is real but underneath it something else lives there
A quiet kind of gratitude for getting out of there
[Bridge]
(stripped back — piano only)
You don’t choose your blood
But you choose who you become
You don’t choose the wreckage
But you choose if you run
I ran
I’m still running
Away from that
Toward something
They will never touch
[Chorus]
I came from broken
I was built from something else
Every single thing I am I made myself
Not them, not their choices, not the life they led
I am everything they couldn’t be instead
I came from broken
But I didn’t stay there
I am not my blood
And I thank God for that
[Verse 3]
The pain of being given away still lives inside my chest
But looking at what gave me up I see it for the rest
The prayer I didn’t know I needed answered before I asked
The exit from a burning building I didn’t know was glass
My kids will never know them never feel that weight I felt
That cycle ends with me I’m the last hand that it’s dealt
I chose to break from everything that blood would have me be
And that choice is the only thing that ever set me free
[Chorus]
I came from broken
I was built from something else
Every single thing I am I made myself
Not them, not their choices, not the life they led
I am everything they couldn’t be instead
I came from broken
But I didn’t stay there
I am not my blood
And I thank God for that
[Final Bridge]
(strings swell)
I looked across that table
And I made my peace
Not with them
But with the fact that I got out
That I am free
Free from what they are
Free from where they go
I chose something different
And I’ll never let it go
[Outro]
(piano fading)
They are not my story
They are just the start
The part before the part
That actually matters
And that part is mine
All mine
