The Amity Affliction

My Father's Son

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

Oh!

I am no stranger to rage

I felt the powers of the bottles
Drowned myself just to escape
I am my father's son
I am my father's mistakes

And I'm ashamed of myself
I just want out of this place
This fucking hell I've created
I can't seem to escape

I have to learn from myself
The fastest way to my death
So I can follow his footsteps
To my hospital bed

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..

I am no stranger to rage

Oh!

I am my father's son
Won't make 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 pass over me

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 have to learn from myself, the fastest way to my death
So I can follow his footsteps to my hospital bed

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..

I am no stranger to rage

And though I never knew him, it turns out we're the same..

And 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 make 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
