Sons and Daughters

Were you loved without question, when you were young?
Or did it come with a price too high to pay?
Were you taught to be good all of the time?
Then whenever you failed, you broke down in tears
Did they see what you did, but not who you were?
Conditional love, life's saboteur
Even though it's hard to see
You are what they made you into

Whatever you are brought up to believe
Anything is possible to achieve
Your parent's sins are just a bruise
We are the sons and daughters of whoever we choose

Can you feel the sting today?
A struggle to change your old paradigms
Do you still need approval from mom or dad?
Wishing they would see the worth of who you are
If no one has told you, say it to yourself
You are great as you are, even at your worst
You were young you had no choice
But now you have to use your own voice

Whatever you are brought up to believe
Anything is possible to achieve
Your parent's sins are just a bruise
We are the sons and daughters of whoever we choose

Whatever you are brought up to believe
Anything is possible to achieve
Your parent's sins are just a bruise
We are the sons and daughters of whoever we choose
