It Didn’t Start With You

[Verse 1]

Starin' in the mirror

I'm thinkin' about gettin' surgery

I'm thinkin' about gettin' skinny

Wishin' I was small

You were once here

Back when you were seventeen

And after you had your babies

Around when Bryce could crawl

[Chorus]

Is my self-hatred learned or is it in my code?

Passed down from your mother's mother

Prophesized and predisposed

A generational curse that'll only get worse

Rottin' out our family tree

It didn't start with you, but it'll end with me

[Verse 2]

You'd get home from work

The 2008 recession

Walk into a mеssy kitchen

Anger in your throat

Now when I'm hurt

I don't gеt meek or quiet

I get mean, I riot

I feel fury when provoked

[Chorus]

Is my anger learned or is it in my code?

Passed down from your father's father

Prophesized and predisposed

A generational curse that'll only get worse

Rottin' out our family tree

It didn't start with you, but it'll end with me

[Outro]

It'll end with me

It'll end with me
