My Father’s Son lyrics

[Intro: Joel Birch]
I am my father's son, I am my father's mistakes
I'm easily undone, and I'm no stranger to rage
I am no stranger to rage
I am no stranger to rage

[Verse 1: Joel Birch]
I built the bars out of bottles
Drowned myself just to escape
I am my father's son
I am my father's mistakes

[Pre-Chorus: Joel Birch]
And I'm ashamed of myself
I just want out of this place
This f*cking hell I created
I can't seem to escape
I had to learn for myself
The fastest way to my death
So I could follow his footsteps
To my hospital bed

[Chorus: Ahren Stringer]
All my life, I have been
Trying to understand myself
It seems like my own reflection
Is just somebody else
It's taken years to know my father
Courses through my veins
And though I never knew him
It turns out we're the same
[Post-Chorus: Joel Birch]
I am no stranger to rage

[Verse 2: Joel Birch]
I am my father's son
Won't be my father's mistakes
I've crept through shadows and alleys
Found my home on the streets
I've felt the cold glare of strangers
As they passed over me

[Pre-Chorus: Joel Birch]
I never figured I'd turn out
To be such a disgrace
But I'm my father's son
The sum of all his mistakes
I had to learn from myself
The fastest way to my death
So I could follow his footsteps
To my hospital bed

[Chorus: Ahren Stringer]
All my life, I have been
Trying to understand myself
It seems like my own reflection
Is just somebody else
It's taken years to know my father
Courses through my veins
And though I never knew him
It turns out we're the same
[Post-Chorus: Joel Birch]
I am no stranger to rage

[Outro: Ahren Stringer & Joel Birch]
And though I never knew him
Though I never knew him, it turns out we're the same
And though I never knew him
Though I never knew him, it turns out we're the same
I am my father's son, I am my father's son
I am my father's son, won't be my father's mistakes
I am my father's son, I am my father's son
I am my father's son, I am my father's son
