Gene Trap
The sin of the father is the sin of the son
From, anger, to greed, to lust, every family has one
But to better ourselves and our own families
We try to be better, though it brings us to our knees
Crippling
Debilitating
Exasperating
Though we try to be better, genetics and us
Work together as well as an old blunderbuss
In the hands of a fool, none the wise
To the power it holds, which is others demise
We think all we hurt is ourselves through our folly
Though we inspire less Serotonin than a heart after molly
Easily broken the cycle is not
Love mixed in with genetics sinister plot
Is what makes it so tough to change our ways
Since when times are hard we turn to family’s loving rays
They’re warm and they’re kind
and your goal is hidden behind
A shroud of support from familial cohorts
