“Family Name” is about not fitting in and feeling like you’re a disappointment to your family because you’re not who they’d hoped you would be. It’s about how harsh people can be on children, and about embracing your own journey, your own story, and what makes you unique.
Family Name Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And I've had a hard time with my reflection
You think I don't suit it but I think I'm broken
The fingerprint smudge on the family portrait
I guess someone has to be the disappointment
[Verse 2]
Poor life choices and lying through my teeth
'Cause I could never let you know
That I can't afford to eat
Know exactly what it looks like
I just wasted twenty years
But I can still make you proud of me
[Chorus]
I was just a kid
I knew no different
I was just a kid
I knew no different
[Post-Chorus 1]
I remember the splinter on the wooden door of my old bedroom
Surrounded by so many like it
But still completely different
[Verse 3]
But you don't look at life like me, I never see just another face
I'm obsessed with their stories and memories
But I admit I wish I knew just how to change
I'm sick of feeling so fucking ashamed in my own skin
[Chorus]
I was just a kid
I knew no different
I was just a kid
I knew no different
[Post-Chorus 2/Outro]
Surrounded by so many like it
But still completely different
