Boondox - Family Tree lyrics
[Boondox - Family Tree lyrics]
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 spirit's
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
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 spirit's
To take the time to unwind and you'll find

Come from a long line of the murderous kind
