Cursed DNA

[Verse 1]
Born with substance in my veins
A map of sorrow etched in chains
Every tear feels preordained
I can't escape their broken reign

[Pre-Chorus]
Mirror whispers back my name
Am I them or am I to blame

[Chorus]
Cursed DNA running wild through me
A family tree that's just debris
Every branch breaks
Every root frays
I'm bound to fall the same old way
Cursed DNA
Can't break free

[Verse 2]
They poured poison into their skies
I breathe it in
I wear their lies
A legacy I can't revise
Their brokenness
My battle cries

[Pre-Chorus]
The scars they left
They never fade
Am I a copy
Or can I evade

[Chorus]
Cursed DNA running wild through me
A family tree that's just debris
Every branch breaks
Every root frays
I'm bound to fall the same old way
Cursed DNA
Can't break free

(Bridge)
A spiral of secrets I can't unwind
It's written in my mind
All this pain 
Running through my veins 
A life of second hand damage 
Carrying around generational baggage 

(Outro)
I don't want to be filled with hate
How do I escape 
Why can't I have a life that's great
