Family Tradition

I tried to be the one that everybody lovedWhere has that gotten me?I tear myself to shreds to prove that i'm someoneThat I could never beNow these unsightly marks define meSo help me, please someone come quickI think I am losing itForgive me, I inherited thisFrom a stranger I'll never missI'm sick.My father taught me first hand how to be set freeGive up and runawayI wish I could drain out his half of blood in meBut i'd still have his faceI curse reflections everydaySo help me, please someone come quickI think I am losing itForgive me, I inherited thisFrom a stranger I'll never missI'm sick.Here is my own family traditionFollowing footsteps into addictionSo is there a way that i can find peaceWhile still numbing my painIs this my fate?Cause your only son still cant seem to find his waySo help me, please someone come quickI think I am losing itForgive me, I inherited thisFrom a stranger I'll never missI'm sick.So father where the hell are you now?I think that you would be proudYour son who so unluckilyFell right next to the treeI hope you're proud of me,I hope you're proud.
