The words of anger you spill can penetrate deep into my soul, your icy chill makes my blood run cold. The constant judging glances that you cast my way can instantly make my courage fold. But that's just a family affair. It cuts so much deeper when the knife thrusted into my back is wielded by one that shares my family name. A person that I would die to protect suddenly has me second guessing if they would do the same. But hey , that's a family affair. You can bring out of me a rage like no other person can and in an instant all I can see is a fiery red hue. But despite it all we are family, you will always be connected me and I will always be connected to you. That's how it goes when it's a family affair

Family Affair
The words of anger you spill can penetrate deep into my soul, your icy chill makes my blood run cold. The constant judging glances that you cast my way can instantly make my courage fold. But that's just a family affair. It cuts so much deeper when the knife thrusted into my back is wielded by one that shares my family name. A person that I would die to protect suddenly has me second guessing if they would do the same. But hey , that's a family affair. You can bring out of me a rage like no other person can and in an instant all I can see is a fiery red hue. But despite it all we are family, you will always be connected me and I will always be connected to you. That's how it goes when it's a family affair
