vince od - family tree lyrics
(verse 1)- vince od
numbness in a bottle
protection from expressing true projection 40 ouncers got me bouncing and seeking counselling
there’s a part of me that sound waves couldn’t save
from cradle to grave henney taste got me ghost by eight
in the p.m. but a.m. is when the first drop touch gl-ss
couch glued to my -ss
cartoons in the back my eyes squint fast
i force them shut so i can sleep so deep
i wake up drenched in my sheets
linens sl!cker than sleet
i twist the cap and repeat
i swore i wouldn’t become an alcoholic guess it skipped a generation pops made the stories sound so horrid the way he ill-strate them
dad sitting drunk on porch stoops naked before the sk!llet fried the bacon
no choice but to obey dictations because consequently
the ducts swole on the whole family each time the belt became un-looped from the notch
got them staring at the clock
wondering if it ever stops
cause a dead father must be better than this
with all the pain he inflicts
he’d probably barely be missed
then he yelled die in the chair and what the f-ck you know in a couple days he did the cycle hits reset time to take it out on his kids
(hook) vince od
don’t you dare put me down until you’re numb
f-ck what your fam say i ain’t the problem
if i’m so bad why i make you feel good give you courage you forgot you had fear your whole mind just flourished
take a drink
pretend that n0body dies
take a drink
n0body looking down from the sky
take a drink you didn’t lose your job before christmas take a drink pour another shot
body senseless
(verse 2)- vince od
knew i was h-ll-bent when nas lost tapes track nine started to make sense
everyone in my way is dead
that’s how i am already
drunk for years can’t hold the bottle steady
serving a bid my vision still blurred with closed lids
i look at those kids that have it all together
well led, paid ed
dime piece in they bed
they scared of people like me
they see me in the street falling to my feet
like the laces tied together on my nikes
we live in profiled society now everybody eyeing me
deep down yo i’m the good one that’s the irony
man f-ck the profile
i only follow for the insight
jot sh-t down when i write
i comment but don’t like
no point in trying to stop act normal while barely hanging
can’t afford the bandage caused by falling off the wagon i just got to except it pops was right i learned my lesson
my life went to sh-t because of the misplaced aggression
should have listened when my conscience said a b-tch is just a b-tch
so is the guy that made us split
this is temporary sh-t
put a muzzle on that voice and went and made this sh-t my life
mom’s banging on the door begging me to see the light goodnight
(hook)- vince od
don’t you dare put me down until you’re numb
f-ck what your fam say i ain’t the problem
if i’m so bad why i make you feel good give you courage you forgot you had fear your whole mind just flourished
take a drink
pretend that n0body dies
take a drink
n0body looking down from the sky
take a drink you didn’t lose your job before christmas take a drink
last shot
time to end this
(message)- vince od
don’t let family history define the decisions you make. if the sickness is there you grow up with the expectation to repeat history and fall in line with the habits and vices within your family tree. the choice is yours. break the cycle or be the victim. thank you
