Uh, yeah... It's real life, ain't no filter on this. Let me tell you somethin'.

Grew up in a house, wasn't no picket fence
More like broken glass, twisted innocence
Daddy dearest, yeah, he played the villain well
Mummy tried to shield us, but we saw the hell
Yelling, screaming, doors slamming in the night
Little ears peekin', holdin' on for dear life
He built an empire on her broken dreams
Now we all got scars, ain't nothin' what it seems

Domestic drama, yeah, that's our pedigree
Generational trauma runnin' wild and free
He thought he was a king, treatin' her like dirt
Now we gotta unpack all this pain and hurt
We ain't victims, nah, we survivors, see?
But the damage lingers, affects you and me
So when you see us shine, know what we overcame
What Daddy brought home everyday 

Siblings scatter, tryna find their own way
But the roots are tangled, ain't no escape, okay?
Therapy bills pilin', tryna break the chain
He left a legacy of heartache and pain
Dating ain't easy, trust is hard to find
Always waitin' for the other shoe to drop, rewind
Mama's a queen, though, she taught us how to rise
But the cracks are showin' in all our disguise

Domestic drama, yeah, that's our pedigree
Generational trauma runnin' wild and free
He thought he was a king, treatin' her like dirt
Now we gotta unpack all this pain and hurt
We ain't victims, nah, we survivors, see?
But the damage lingers, affects you and me
So when you see us shine, know what we overcame
What daddy brought home everyday 

It ain't a sob story, it's a battle cry
For every kid who had to learn to fly
From a broken nest, with wings taped and torn
We rise above the ashes, reborn

Domestic drama, yeah, that's our pedigree
Generational trauma runnin' wild and free
He thought he was a king, treatin' her like dirt
Now we gotta unpack all this pain and hurt
We ain't victims, nah, we survivors, see?
But the damage lingers, affects you and me
So when you see us shine, know what we overcame
What daddy brought home everyday 

Yeah, we breakin' the cycle, that's the ultimate key
From the ashes, watch us rise, wild and free.
Real Talk..
