Family Tree Lyrics by Senora May

Lainhart

2018

My high beams cut the night like a knife into the flame
Tempered by the fire, weathered by the rain
And I been beat down and smothered
So much love I can barely stand
While Lula's swayin' her hips from the dash in high demand
But there ain't enough for everybody askin'
There’s just enough to keep it close to home
(Chorus:)
We all got heavy hearts for the liftin'
We take turns to hold each other high and I climbed so tall
Slept on every branch and I'll never fall
From the arms of my family tree
Estill County native
I'm a stranger to the fane
Pragmatic in delivery but fall short all the same
Some might say I've got it all
Others might say I'm bound to fall to the depths of hell, though all I know is love
When you're living in captivity
Overexposed by liberty
You frequently forget we're all the same
(Chorus:)
We all got heavy hearts for the liftin'
We take turns to hold each other high and I climbed so tall
Slept on every branch and I'll never fall
From the arms of my family tree
Shoot not your starlings, spear not your thieves
Fruit for the plenty, ask and you shall receive
Rubber hits the pavement like a broom onto the rug
Beating out the dirty, bad memories, sex, and drugs
I can drive the pain away one mile at a time
The closer that I get to home
My thoughts they come divine
(Chorus:)
We all got heavy hearts for the liftin'
We take turns to hold each other high and I climbed so tall
Slept on every branch and I'll never fall
From the arms of my family tree
