A Conversation With God About Family

from #Muricana by Revelator

/

lyrics

Before the day that I was born you
Came into my home
Swayed hearts and minds against me
And left me there alone

They call me different, they call me special
I will not be like them
They won't accept me, they can't accept me
I just will not pretend

But you put the darkness in their hearts
and in their minds

Yeh
I will not lie for you
Yeh
You shouldn't want me to

As I grow older I can't escape you
Your tyranny remains
They won't accept what I've become
They will not say my name

I am the other, the one who left and
Followed my own path
And I am hollow in my pain
Left in their aftermath

You put that darkness in their hearts
And in their minds

Yeh
I will not lie for you
Yeh
You shouldn't want me to

Yeh
I will not lie for you
Yeh
You shouldn't want me to
Yeh
I will not bow to you
Yeh
Why do you want me to?
