Blood Means Nothing

You've thrown those words like Daggers at me"Blood is thicker than Water"-a chain, not free"At the end of the day, we're still Family" you say, but family shouldn't Leave scars that won't fade I've carried the weight of your cruel Embrace The gaslighting lies, the pain in your face I'm done with your rules, your toxic control I'm taking back the pieces of my soul Blood means nothing if it's laced with pain I won't bow down to your cruel refrain Love isn't power, love isn't fear, it's time I choose a path that's clear I'll find my joy, I'll write my song, for Once in my life, I'll prove you wrong You demanded obedience, called it respect But respect isn't born from a life you wrecked Your words cut deep, your actions betray A family of shadows that pushed me away I've lived your lies, I've played your games But I'm done bearing your guilt and your shame I'll love myself in the way you could not, and Build a life from all you forgot Blood means nothing if it's laced with pain I won't bow down to your cruel refrain Love isn't power, love isn't fear It's time I choose a path that's clear I'll find my joy, I'll write my song For once in my life, I'll prove you wrong Family isn't chains, family's not control It's love that lifts and makes us whole You've taught me what family shouldn't be Now I'll break free, finally me No more silence, no more pain No more playing your endless game I choose my way, my truth, my light This is my stand, this my fight Blood means nothing if it's laced with pain I won't bow down to your cruel refrain Love isn't power, love isn't fear It's time I choose a path that's clear I'll find my joy, I'll write my song For once in my life, I'll prove you wrong I'll love myself the way you never could Build a life you never understood Blood means nothing, love is the key And for once in my life, I'll finally be free Family isn't chains, family's not control It's love that lifts and makes us whole You've taught me what family shouldn't be Now I'll break free.
