Papa was a rolling stone and he left trails of brand new brothers
Mama was a working soul, barely left energy for others
Sometimes ideas would flow, but I never planned how to reach the goal
They say this runs inside the family, you know
Oh, what a hiding place
These stressors and devices can't seem to get away
It just leaves the mind divided
Don't apologize, this is just the way we're bred
But I'll try to be the better me instead
If I could make, make up for chances they had never tried to take
Take all the habits we've acquired and just shake
Shake off the tendencies and urges
Got these stories from our generational curses
If I could make, make up for chances they had never tried to take
Take all the habits we've acquired and just shake
Shake off the tendencies and urges
Got these stories from our generational curses
Cause I've been working hard, not to fight just cause it's in the bloodline
Tell myself that it's alright, it'll work out in good time
Even though sometimes it's lies, I tell myself I'll be fine
It's all ingrained in my mind, that's just how it works
God help me break this curse that shadows me back from my worth
From what I deserve, help me heal this hurt
Teach me how love works, while I'm on this earth
I will do my best to see
If I could make, make up for chances they had never tried to take
Take all the habits we've acquired and just shake
Shake off the tendencies and urges
Got these stories from our generational curses
If I could make, make up for chances they had never tried to take
Take all the habits we've acquired and just shake
Shake off the tendencies and urges
