[Verse 1: Dom McLennon]

He said

Not mine, oh no, it couldn't be

I saw her yesterday, she was always so good to me

He starts to question himself about things he couldn't see

Sitting in front of his face all the time, stupid me...

The signs were all there, and now that I recognize

I feel at fault for everything, for breaking the family ties

For separating her mother, physically from her spirit

There was nothing I could do, that love, I didn't feel it

But I didn't have the heart, to take effective action

Cause though I had love for her, I needed the fucking passion

God I needed the passion, all I live for is passion...

And now I feel like mentally I was my kid's assassin

I can't deal, this cycle has been reversed

She was bound to carry tradition once I had left the Earth

I swear to god I don't wanna put my own kid in a hearse

I know I've been lost at heart, but my soul is a part of her's


[Hook]

I know I've been lost at heart but my soul is a part of her's (x3)



[Verse 2: Dom McLennon]

He said... Please god, take me first, don't harm her

God spoke back, he said Welcome to karma

I never spite you see, this was your fate

And it's not about you and I or your lost faith

This world is not yours, you expected to get more

You sinned, though you have what many would sin for

It's about her...that's what you should live for

You wanted passion, would you give your kin for?

He said no and god said, I wasn't askin'

You said it at her side, that you needed the fucking passion

He tried to barter, said he would give it all

Just to have his child back, got on his knees and crawled

He pleaded and said, I never could live with all this regret

This weight on my chest is something that I could never forget

God said, I control nothing outside of the rules I've set

I'm sorry, but she decided she's taken her last breath.
