Broken Branches
A family tree is a gift from Yah, The Most High, where beyond the Universe, He lies
The roots sink to the bottom of Earth's pillars, and the branches stretch high into the skies
From first generation, over time, the branches multiply, sending off dozens of families, nationwide and worldwide
However, some branches never stand the test of time, and so therefore, they shrivel up into dust and are put to rest to die
Time and time again some try, to bind the minds of their family ties
Looking into their eyes, patterns of abuse and trauma reside
It's all in the family, it's hereditary, for them to gather only so often at the cemetery
Reading obituaries of ghosts, now nonexistent like fairies
All of us in sunken trance, our demons are joking and dancing
Even medicine in the food can't save us, trees that can't be saved leave broken branches
