family tree - ian randall thornton lyrics

Loading...

i’ve been travelin’ roads for weeks playin’ shows
every city has a family waiting for me
oh i come and i play but i never can stay
cause i’m circling home to my own family

things were given to me in my family tree
there’s fruit and theirs roots that i should dig up now
so i will plow, i will rake for my grand children’s sake
for what is in me undoubtedly will be endowed
yeah what is in me undoubtedly has been endowed

i never knew my own grand fathers
but they both survived the war
though they never met each other
they both have met the lord

we’re never wanting to bleed but our blood is a seed
that was buried beneath our soily skin
give it the water it needs, spirit dig up the weeds
and the blood of your kin will have flourished within
let the blood of your kin grow and flourish within

still if my lover awaits at the pearly gates
and i never do find another here on earth
still i will build, i will birth, i’ll bleed these seeds to the dirt
for what is in me is infinitely bigger than me

and we will see what’ll come from my family tree
