Deadbeat Lyrics

They sell their pride

Or they sell themselves

Cause that's what was done for them

That won't place you in hell

They feel they have no choice

That's all they've ever known

Did all you can for me

They call you a deadbeat

You were trying to succeed

By all the means that you had

And yet they still call you

Deadbeat parent

You are to them

But not to me

Trauma Passing

Passing down our family tree

They hate you

Even though they don't know

All that you have down for me

Killing yourself to make ends meet

(Go)

Ignorance is fucking bliss

You reach out for help

But they all reject

Pull yourself up

By your bootstraps

They say the fruit

Doesn't fall far

From the tree

If it's fucking rotten

They call you a deadbeat

You were trying to succeed

By all the means that you had

And yet they still call you

Deadbeat parent

You are to them

But not to me

Trauma passing

Passing down our family tree
