Family Tree
Intoxication, filled with the medications
Sedation powder made from hatians
Put me in this ****** situation
My lungs are cold and feelin like they explodin
Im loaded, wrote it all down
Im givin you this invitation
To come and visit me, come into my mind
And sit a minute, join the spirits
To take the time to unwind and youll find
The DNA aint fallin far from the tree
Come from a long line of the murderous kind
So dont be ****** with me
You wanna check the history
Just pull the newspaper clippins
And find the trailer where it happened
I bet the blood is still drippin
And Im sippin on
Kerosene, and its just to make me enabled
To let the world know that my family is more than unstable
And I might be the black sheep for the secrets that
Im tellin
More than half my bloodline is layin dead on a felon
And I aint sellin no lies, my last name is a curse
Im hopin that
I survive yeah, just to finish this verse
I see the hearse
Kerosene, go get the matches
Light this thing and burn the branches
End the pain and suffering
Burn it up and kill my family tree
From way back,
I remember my fathers expression
When the telephone ring at 3am you didnt have to stop and question
Cause we knew that dark cloud was hangin just like a noose
The only thing on our mind was death and who did he choose
The time my cousin ate a bullet and my other cousin followed
When they sister heard the news, thats when the
Drano got swallowed
Seen my first closed-casket just before
I could talk
And I almost met the same fate just before
I could walk
I lost my aunt to a pistol with her husband on the other end
Nine years old and already noticed a trend
So many friends dead and buried
Many coffins been carried
On a first name basis with too many cemeteries
And Im weary of my fate, scared for the ??kids, and me??
Cursed like the
Von Erichs, somethin like the ??
Kennedys??
Say a prayer for me, if youre down on a knee
And pray to
God you aint branches on my dyin family tree
Kerosene, go get the matches
Light this thing and burn the branches
End the pain and suffering
Burn it up and kill my family tree
Chop, chop, chop it down
When a dead tree fall, does it make a sound
Chop, chop, chop it down
When a dead tree fall, does it make a sound
Chop, chop, chop it down
When a dead tree fall, does it make a sound
Chop, chop, chop it down
When a dead tree fall , does it make a sound
Kerosene, go get the matches
Light this thing and burn the branches
End the pain and suffering
Burn it up and kill my family tree
