White Sheep

Lyrics

[Intro] Hate my family, fucking hate my name Hate that my earliest memories were pretending to be okay [Verse 1] I don't think there was a single time I felt like one of you A single problem where I felt like I could confide in you too A single lesson I learned by doing what you'd do And when you hear this you'll call me ungrateful but mom, it's true [Chorus 1] Hate my family, fucking hate my name I hate that my teenage years were spent being visibly not okay Couldn't afford a plane ticket when I thought Tiffany was dead But you bought a dog and a pool instead I hate that I never got my apology [Verse 2] Oh brother, I hate your temper It's been plaguing me as far back as I can remember I don't ever know what to say to you They say: "You don't have to like your family, you just have to love them" - but I'm not sure that's true [Chorus 2] Hate my family, fucking hate my name Hate that, to be myself, I had to move 1000 miles away And I say I hate talking on the phone, but I just hate talking to you I don't know what to do [Bridge] I hate myself for feeling this way 'Cause if my dad showed me anything, it's that anyone can change He went from always angry, smoking a pack a day To calling me up to say he's proud of the life that I made [Outro] Do I hate my family, do I hate my name? 'Cause I forget that they're people too and they had 3 kids at my age Yeah, your parents can burn bridges and break your heart before anyone else, but I don't think that bridge is broken It just needs some TLC and help Its daunting and could be pointless but it's a necessary task I just have to learn how to ask
