Family Matters

You've never worn these shoes
Don't mean my new balance in blue
Raised on pure dysfunction
But sleep I'll never lose

Guess you'll never notice
'Cause I always keep it neat
Got old wounds and fresh ones
But you won't see me bleed (mm)

Bitching 'bout problems
Like they're stuck on your lips
You're so dramatic

I could tell you 'bout me, but you won't understand
Get no caller IDs, it's the police again
No pills to be out, but there's no kids around
Death knocked down my door, walked in unannounced
A line meant two things since I was like five
Starved 'cause his words, but at least I'm alive
It is what it is, you call it traumatic
But it is what it is, it's just family matters

There's times I can't keep focused
'Cause they're all fucking raging
A spliff stops my explosion
Bad habits I'm not facing

At school, weed was my perfume
Then my brother's drugs got harder
It became substance abuse
So he's a stupid bastard

Bitching 'bout problems
Like they're stuck on your lips
You're so dramatic

I could tell you 'bout me, but you won't understand
Get no caller IDs, it's the police again
No pills to be out, but there's no kids around
Death knocked down my door, walked in unannounced
A line meant two things since I was like five
Starved 'cause his words, but at least I'm alive
It is what it is, you call it traumatic
But it is what it is, it's just family matters

I don't eat, I feed, that's who I am
You take the piss, baby, I burn
My fire's hot, yeah, I'm fucked up
But you haven't my family, so you're in luck
You haven't met my family, oh
Lucky you haven't met my family
'Cause I'm fucked up
