Boondox - Family Tree lyrics

rate me

Intoxication, filled with the medications

Sedation powder made from ??

Put me in this fuckin situation

My lungs are cold and feelin like they explodin

I'm loaded, wrote it all down

I'm 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 you'll find

The DNA ain't fallin far from the tree

Come from a long line of the murderous kind

So don't be fuckin with me

You wanna check the history

Just pull the newspaper clippin's

And find the trailer where it happened

I bet the blood is still drippin

And I'm sippin on Kerosene, and it's 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 I'm tellin

More than half my bloodline is layin dead on a felon

And I ain't sellin no lies, my last name is a curse

I'm 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 father's expression

When the telephone ring at 3am you didn't 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, that's 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 I'm weary of my fate, scared for the ??kids, and me??

Cursed like the Von Erichs, somethin like the ??Kennedy's??

Say a prayer for me, if you're down on a knee

And pray to God you ain't 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
