My Blood Lyrics - Singles - Shrub

this is for my blood, 

this is for my blood, 

this is for my mom and dad, 

this is for my mom and dad. 

i knew since the time we was just little boys, 

that our daddy was a daddy, 'cause he made that choice. 

if i could be half the fuckin' man that you are, 

i'd be the greatest dad to ever circle round this bright star, 

the sun don't always shine, 

but with you by my side, 

everything'll be fine, 

and i never went a day thinking any other way, 

you see the rain comes and fades, 

but your love doesn't sway, 

and even though it took me all these years, 

and even though i shed all these tears, 

your baby boy has a life of his own, 

but i'll never be alone, 

'cause you're standing right here. yeah. 

this is for my blood, my blood. 

this is for my blood, this is for my blood. 

this is for my mom and dad, 

and that was for my dad. 

this is for my mom and dad, 

and this for my mom. 

i knew since the time we was just little boys, 

that our momma was a momma, 'cause she made that choice. 

you'd always kiss my cheek, as you tucked me in my sheets, 

tell me that you loved me, as you sang me to sleep, 

you used to have the world's most beautiful voice, 

yo i heard, you had the world's most beautiful voice, 

they said you had the world's most beautiful voice, 

yo i heard, yo i hurt. 

you were getting paid to sing, 'til this day came, 

right before you had me, and shit done changed, 

i was in ya tummy, and the doc looked strange, 

it one month i'm coming, but to ease the pain, 

ya see my momma needed pills each day, 

and the best doc in town says there's no other way, 

we're gonna have to operate today, 

you've already lost your throat, but you won't lose jay. 

this is for my blood, 

my blood, 

my blood. 

this is for my blood, 

my blood. 

this is for my. 

this is for my blood. 

this is for my mom and dad, 

this is for my mom and dad, 

i'm really glad i have you, 

cuz all the shit that i do, 

would drive most parents crazy, 

but that shit never phased you. 

and im forever grateful, 

and im forever thankful, 

and you're forever in my heart, 

and that is where you'll be 'til..... 

the day i die, 

that day i die, 

some day i'll die, 

one day im a die, 

momma don't cry, 

pray there's a heaven, up in the sky, 

one day im a fade away, 

and set the world on fire, 

watch the sky turn gray. 

one day im a die, 

momma don't cry, 

pray there's a heaven, up in the sky, 

one day im a fade away, 

and set the world on fire, 

watch the sky turn gray.
