Cutting Ties

Don't wanna be the same
Carry my fathers name
In a long line of shame
Ain't nobody need to know about it

I changed my name to Lee
I cut my tries by three
And without apology
I took the bus on down to Summerset

If you leave you're still blood
You're still one of us
Strap on your boots
Just to trip over your roots
Cut us out, break our trust
You're still one of us
Your bag is packed
But you can't outrun your past

Sirens singing wake unto me

I cast my demons out
I'm gonna be devout
Ain't no shadows cast a doubt
I'm gonna fly straighter than an arrow
I'm gonna claim what's mine
But I won't cross that line
I left a life of crime and now this time
I'll walk the straight and narrow

Sirens scheming ways undo me

Sirens blaring coming for me

Ain't I still one of you
All that you said was true
The city beat me black and blue
And I shed the blood to prove it
