Runs in the Family

It's outta my hands and in my blood
There's red in a ledger and I can't pay up
Blessed by the wicked
Washed in the mud
Can't save my soul, so let the valley flood

I wear the cloth that I'm cut from
It's just a matter of time
There ain't no stopping the setting sun
Can't wash the sin from the hands that made me
Can't outrun what runs in the family

Runs in the family

It'll cut me down, but the roots run deep
I ain't gonna die when they bury me
Crown of my father is at my feet
Even pray for mercy, but it won't come cheap

I wear the cloth that I'm cut from (that I'm cut from)
It's just a matter of time
There ain't no stopping the setting sun (there's no stopping the setting sun)
Can't wash the sin from the hands that made me
Can't outrun what runs in the family

Runs in the family
They runs in the family
