[Verse 1]
I remember what grandma said
When I was just bout nine years old
Got some habits you don't know about yet
And some can't quit in your bones
Some say you don't stand a chance
When you're fighting with the DNA
'Cause whiskey breath shaky hands are a hell of a trait
[Chorus]
That ran in the family
Who knows who to blame
I guess you passed down more than your last name
They say that the apple don't fall far from the tree
They don't get a say in who I'm gonna be
It ran in the family
Until it ran into me
[Verse 2]
No I ain't even got kids yet
But I can tell you my six year old
Won't be lying there in his bed
Hoping that daddy don't even come home
No mine didn't see it that way
And even though it's still his fault
It goes deeper than the holes in the walls
[Chorus]
It ran in the family
Who knows who to blame
I guess you passed down more than your last name
They say that the apple don't fall far from the tree
They don't get a say in who I'm gonna be
It ran in the family
Until it ran into me
Until it ran into me
[Bridge]
The healing gets easier when you realize the truth
The reason you need healing is 'cause they need healing too
[Chorus]
It ran in the family
Who knows who to blame
I guess you passed down more than your last name
They say that the apple don't fall far from the tree
They don't get a say in who I'm gonna be
It ran in the family
Until it ran into me
[Outro]
I won't take one down pass it around
'Cause I know where that leads
I hope years from now I'll be proud
'Cause it ended with me
