Family Portrait

Uh, uh, some deep shit, uh, uh

Mama please stop cryin, I can’t stand the sound

Your pain is painful and its tearin' me down

I hear glasses breakin as I sit up in my bed

I told dad you didn’t mean those nasty things you said

You fight about money, bout me and my brother

And this I come home to, this is my shelter

It ain’t easy growin up in World War III

Never knowin what love could be, you’ll see

I don’t want love to destroy me like it has done my family

Chorus:

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?

I promise I’ll be better, Mommy I’ll do anything

Can we work it out? Can we be a family?

I promise I’ll be better, Daddy please don’t leave

Daddy please stop yellin, I can’t stand the sound

Make mama stop cryin, cuz I need you around

My mama she loves you,(I know it)

no matter what she says its true

I know that she hurts you, but remember I love you, too

I ran away today, ran from the noise, ran away

Don’t wanna go back to that place, but don’t have no choice, no way

It ain’t easy growin up in World War III

Never knowin what love could be, well I've seen

I don’t want love to destroy me like it did my family

(Chorus)

In our family portrait, we look pretty happy

Let’s play pretend, let's act like it comes naturally

I don’t wanna have to split the holidays

I don’t want two addresses

I don’t want a step-brother anyways

And I don’t want my mom to have to change her last name
